Are Delta Elektra Systems Designed For Salt Water Use ?
– While the sanitizing ability of the system is not affected by salt water, the harsh environment found in salt water pools, ponds and aquariums will eventually affect any metal in the UV system’s wet chamber. The exception to this is the Delta UV Elektra E Series which is suitable for salt water installations due to the wet chamber of the E Series being 100% PVC. Therefore, the E Series non-metallic construction is not affected by harsh salt water environments. It is recommended, however, that the quartz tube inside the UV chamber be cleaned every six months, versus an annual cleaning of the quartz tube in fresh water applications.
