1.1 CCH® Endurance Tablets
The patent-pending, slow dissolving CCH® Endurance Tablets are a
3-in-1 product that chlorinates consistently, increases calcium to
protect plaster, and increases alkalinity to stabilize pH. The benefits
of the CCH® Endurance Tablets include but is not limited to:
• DOES NOT add cyanuric acid to your pool reducing wasteful
drainage
• DOES NOT reduce ORP effectiveness
• Dissolves slowly to give long lasting chlorination
• Eliminates the formation of nitrogen trichloride (strong chlo-
rine odor) associated with trichlor use
• Highly concentrated to reduce shipping and handling costs
• More concentrated than liquid bleach
• Longer shelf life when compared to liquid bleach
• Adds less total dissolved solids (TDS) than liquid bleach
• Class 2 Oxidizer
1.2 CCH® Endurance Feeder
The CCH® Endurance Feeder is an easy to use, automatic solution
that is exclusively designed to feed CCH® Endurance Tablets. Other
Calcium Hypochlorite or Trichlor tablets will not fit into the feeder nor
will they dissolve properly and provide the appropriate feed rate. With
the simplicity of an erosion feeder, the CCH® Endurance Feeder’s
streamlined design is easy to install, service and requires minimal
operator maintenance.

2.1 Theory of Operation
The patent-pending CCH® Endurance System is a pressurized feeder
system designed for pools and spas ranging from 500 to 60,000
gallons [ 1,892.7 to 227,124.7 liters] . A pre-filter to post filter loop will
be added to the main pool recirculation system as part of the CCH®
Endurance System. This recirculation loop will create the pressure
differential to provide the proper flow of water through the feeder.
The CCH® Endurance System incorporates the principles of High
Capacity Erosion (HCE) technology. Water rises in a “column” from
a submerged nozzle below the tablet grid making contact with the
CCH® Endurance Tablets. The tablets are then submerged in a column
of water with the water flow from the nozzle creating a chlorinated
solution that is discharged to the pool return line. The feeder oper-
ates in a pressurized condition with a pressure range between 5 to
20 psig [0.35 to 1.38 bar] .
The chlorine output is controlled by the cartridge height setting (dis-
tance of the tablet from the nozzle) and the inlet flow rate which has
an operating range of 1 to 4.5 gpm [3.7 to 17.03 lpm] . In addition, an
ORP controller may be used for more precise control. The inlet flow
rate will allow a minimum available chlorine (AvCl) output of 0.1 lb/
day [0.05 kg/day] and will allow a maximum AvCl output of 8.5 lbs./
day [3.86 kg/day].

3.4 Installation Procedure
Background: The next steps involve installing a loop around the pool
filter where the CCH® Endurance Feeder will be located. The pool filter
will create a pressure differential to provide flow through the CCH®
Endurance Feeder. This loop is created using the saddle clamps, pitot
tubes, ball valves, tube fittings, and tubing provided with your sys-
tem.
NOTE: Refer to the schematics on pages 11-13 for a pool system
installation and follow the steps below.
NOTE: Before starting installation, determine if the pipes to be
drilled are above or below the pool water level. If they are below
the pool water level, isolation valves must be shut to prevent
backflow through the holes that are being drilled. If isolation
valves are shut properly, some water may drain out of the
drilled holes but will stop once piping is empty.
NOTE: Apply plumbers tape to all male threads to ensure a leak
free connection.
3.4.1 Making the inlet connection from the pool to the feeder
(Pre-Filter)
Choose a location on the main pool recirculation piping on the dis-
charge side of the pool pump but upstream of the pool filter(s). Make
sure the pool pump is off and shut isolation valves from the pool pip-
ing so that it is dry.
1. Drill 7/8” (22.2 mm)hole anywhere on the top half of the pipe
(figure 1). Caution: Do not drill on the bottom half of the pipe.
Excess debris may enter your feeder.
2. For 2” [50.8 mm] pool pipe, use Assembly A (figure 2a). Do
not yet fully tighten nuts (figure 2b). For 1-1/2” [38.1 mm]
pool pipe, use Assembly B (figure 2c).
3. Insert part C (figure 3a). Make sure Pitot tube is fully inserted
prior to tightening saddle clamp (figure 3b).
4. Connect part D, Ball Valve (figure 4).
5. Connect part E, Tubing Connector (figure 5).

3.4 Installation Procedure (continued)
3.4.2 Making the chlorine injection connection from the
feeder to the pool (post-filter and heater)
Choose a location on the main pool recirculation piping downstream
of the pool filter(s), and heater (if available), but before the acid or
CO2injection point.
1. To make the outlet connection from the feeder to the pool, re-
peat all steps from section 3.4.1 except for step #3. Step #3 is
modified as follows:
3.4.3 Completing the feeder circulation loop
1. Complete feeder assembly with parts part D, ball valve, and
part E, tubing connector (figure 6).
2. Connect part D, ball valve, and part G, closed nipple to the
drain port to complete the feeder assembly (figure 7a & 7b).
3. Choose a location for the CCH® Endurance Feeder that allows
easy access for filling and maintenance.
4. Using the 5/8” [15.9 mm] O.D. tubing, part F (see figure 8),
cut the tubing to size and connect the feeder inlet to the pre-
filter tubing connector installed in step #5 of section 3.4.1, and
connect the feeder outlet to the post-filter tubing connector in-
stalled in step # 1 of section 3.4.2.
This completes your feeder recirculation loop.

4 Feeder Start Up
4.1 Pre-Startup Procedure
Following the steps outlined below will ensure a smooth start-up of
the CCH® Endurance Feeder. For seasonal operation, perform this
procedure each Spring.
IMPORTANT!! Do NOT put CCH® Endurance Tablets in the feeder
during the start-up operation.
4.1.1 Verify water flow through feeder
1. With the CCH® Endurance Feeder fully installed per the instal-
lation procedure, section 3.4, turn on the pool recirculation
system, and open all valves to the feeder.
Note: Before starting the flow test, ensure the pressure cap at
the top of the feeder is on and shut. Turn cap clockwise a quar-
ter turn until the triangle of the cap lines up with the body of
the feeder. This indicates the pressure tight seal on the feeder.
2. Increase the flow rate going through the feeder until it reaches
the maximum flow rate as read on the flow meter on the front
of the feeder.
3. With maximum flow going through the feeder, check the sys-
tem for leaks. Tighten all fittings as necessary if leakage is ob-
served.
4. When all leaks have been corrected, shut the inlet valve first,
then shut the outlet valve to fully isolate the feeder from the
pool filter system.
4.1.2 Adjusting the cartridge feed rate setting
Note: Adjust cartridge feed rate setting prior to loading with
CCH® Endurance Tablets. The feed rate setting of the cartridge
may not be able to be reduced if already full of tablets.
1. With pressure cap and seal cap removed, remove the cartridge
assembly from the feeder, turn counter clockwise so that load
lines up with arrow on the feeder (figure 9). This locks the car-
tridge assembly for easy loading or feed rate setting adjust-
ment. Follow steps #2 - #5 to complete the feed rate setting
adjustment.
2. See figure 10.
3. Twist counterclockwise (figure 11).
4. Slide up or down (figure 12).
5. Twist clockwise (figure 13).

NSF listing. DANGER: Under no circumstances should you mix
calcium hypochlorite with other forms of concentrated chlorine
or other chemicals. Fire and/or explosion may result. Caution
must be used when refilling the cartridge with more tablets.
WARNING - Wear protective gloves when handling CCH® Endur-
ance Tablets.
1. See figure 14a & 14b.
2. Open the Ball Valve at the drain and drain the solution into a
bucket or down to a drain (figure 15). Caution: Failure to per-
form this step may result in a chlorine spill and possible in-
jury.
3. See figure 16a & 16b (page 19).
4. See figure 17 (page 19).
5. Verify that O-ring is still in place and there is no debris in the
O-ring groove before replacing seal cap (figure 18, page 19).
6. See figure 19 (page 20).
7. Turn pressure cap clockwise a quarter turn until the triangle
of the cap lines up with the body of the feeder (figure 20, page

4.2 Startup Procedures
WARNING - KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
4.2.1 Feeder Startup
After completing the PRE-START-UP PROCEDURE, and establishing that
all components of the feeder are operating properly, your CCH® Endur-
ance Feeder is ready for start-up.
1. Establish the proper cartridge feed rate setting for your pool us-
ing the chart in section 4.2.2
2. Load the cartridge assembly with CCH® Endurance Tablets by
following section 4.1.3.
3. Open the inlet and outlet ball valves at the pool piping.
4. Open the ball valve at the feeder inlet and set the flow meter to
the recommended feed rate setting determined in step 1 using
the ball valve at the feeder inlet.
Note: If using the optional ORP kit, fully open the ball valve at
the feeder inlet to allow maximum flow into the feeder and set
the cartridge feed rate setting to the highest setting. The ORP or
chemical controller will then control chlorine dosing based on
your established set points.
5. Monitor the flow rate through the feeder daily to ensure that the
proper flow rate is being maintained.
6. During the first few days of operation, check the chlorine level in
the pool frequently to establish the best Inlet flow rate and car-
tridge feed rate setting for your pool. Adjust the chlorine output
either up or down according to the table, or adjust the ORP set-
point if using the ORP kit.
