Can I use salt in the water with my Polar Dive chiller?Updated 2 months ago

We strongly advise against using salt or any chemicals in the water with your Polar Dive chiller. Our units are designed to function with clean, fresh water. The introduction of salts or chemicals may damage vital components including the pump, filter, and chiller system due to potential corrosiveness. To maintain water cleanliness:

  • Perform regular water changes, typically every specified interval, depending on usage.
  • If extra water clarity is needed, add a minimal amount of food-grade hydrogen peroxide, taking care to only use a small quantity.
  • Keep the unit covered when not in use to prevent debris and contaminants from entering the water.

Following these practices will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Polar Dive chiller.
