T-Cell Cleaning Stand

thingiverse

This is a cleaning stand for Hayward (or compatible e.g. Blueworks) T-cell salt water pool chlorinators. The way it works is you screw it on one side of your T-cell so that it stands straight up and seals the bottom from leaks. Then you pour in some white vinegar (or your chosen muriatic acid/water combination though I don't recommend that as it can damage the cell!) and wait while it dissolves any lime/calcium build-up inside the cell. Tip: You can use a nylon zip tie to (safely) break off chunks of calcium from the "fins" of the chlorinator. Note: Hayward makes a ~$23 cleaning stand but this stand only costs ~$1.50 (in filament). Also, it prints faster than Amazon can ship to you! =) I've included the .scad files I used to create this stand so you can customize it to your heart's delight. Just note that the threads don't match exactly because Hayward intentionally made the threads on the T-cell proprietary. They're good enough for a stand but maybe not good enough for anything under pressure.
