BASIC OPERATING HINTS
1. Ensure water is balanced with respect to pH, total Alkalinity and calcium hard-
ness otherwise corrosive or scaly conditions may result. These conditions may
lead to equipment inefficiencies or damage and the resultant water may cause
staining and mineral deposits. Chlorine effectiveness may be compromised
along with bather comfort.
2. Regular testing of pool water is imperative. A free chlorine level of 1.5ppm to
3.0ppm should be maintained with periodic manual shock dosing to effectively
remove contaminants. A correctly sized chlorinator will meet the normal demand
requirements of your pool. Your Aquapower-plus chlorinator displays % chlorine
output only, not the actual residual chlorine level in the pool.
3. The use of Cyanuric acid (chlorine stabilizer) will ensure no chlorine is lost due
to the action of the suns U.V. light is kept to a minimum. The breakdown of chlo-
rine by U.V. light is so significant that we insist on it’s use. Keep CYA between
50 - 80 ppm.
4.
Although regular acid cleaning is not required, it is good practice to periodi-
cally inspect the cell for entrapped debris and remove if necessary. If a mineral
deposit appears to build on the electrode, contact Aquapower-plus for advice.
5. Always disconnect automatic pool cleaners when adding salt and only
reconnect when salt has fully dissolved.
6. DO NOT USE COPPER OR BROMINE BASED PRODUCTS IN POOL.
Usage
of these may void warranty. Consult your local pool professional for advice.
(Some copper based products available are acceptable for use - consult with
your pool professional or Aquapower-plus)
Bromine must never be used in conjunction with our systems.
7. Generally the pool pump and chlorinator should operate from 4 to 12 hrs per
day depending on the demand placed on the residual chlorine level by the
environment or bather numbers.
8. Take note of the diagnostic display, it will inform you of the chlorinators activity
and any abnormal conditions that may exist.
9. Read the entire owners manual, seek advice from a pool professional on water
balance, or contact AquaPower-Plus directly . It is important to understand not
only the operation of your Aquapower-plus salt chlorinator, but indeed some
basic water chemistry to ensure the pool, the equipment, you, your friends and
family enjoy healthy swimming pleasure.
