Timer Recommendations

Generally, you should operate your pool pump for 

8 hours a day in total to achieve sufficient chlorine 

production and circulate the pool water including 

skimming which will reduce debris settling in the pool 

and ongoing maintenance. 

As a default, the control is set to come on at 08:00 

hours and 16:00 hours both for periods of 4 hours.

Figure 13. 

Timer Default On/Off settings

Recommendations for timers:

•  Two timers: one for morning, one for the evening sanitizing 

cycle 

•  Timers should typically run for periods of 2-5 hours each.
•  A third timer can be used for lighting with the pump off.
•  Chlorinator is most effective if run in the early morning or 

evening when it is cooler (strong sunlight consumes more 

chlorine)
