BASIC POOL ROUTINE
1. It is important to spend a few minutes a week to
monitor the water balance and to learn the trends of
the pool.
2. After a couple of weeks a clear pattern will be
identified as to how many hours and at what current
control levels the ionizer should function.
3
Do not haphazardly alter the pH
, or add algaecide, or
try to alter perfectly clear water. Give the pool water
time to stabilize and remember simplicity is the key.
4. Always keep the pH, Phosphates, Total Alkalinity,
Calcium Hardness and Copper Ion levels at the correct
levels. See the Snap Pool Balance Chart.
5. Brush the pool or operate your auto pool cleaner once
a week and your pool water will settle down into a
healthy sparkling body of water.
3 TESTS EACH WEEK
Test every week (adjust if required):
1. pH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7.0 - 7.4 pH
2. Copper . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.5 - 0.6 ppM
3. Total Alkalinity. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 80 to 120 ppM
2 TESTS EACH MONTH
(If weather/conditions are very wet/windy then do these
2 tests weekly)
1. Phosphates (Algae Food). . . . . . <0.4ppM (400 ppB)
2. Calcium Hardness . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 200 - 250 ppM
Correct phosphate levels are as important as correct pH
levels
and are easily controlled by using
Bionizer PFP
Phosphate remover. When levels of phosphates are
above 0.4ppM (400ppB) in the pool water there is a risk of
algae as phosphates are food for algae.
Follow these rules and check your Bionizer regularly to
ensure it is operating correctly and the anodes are not
worn. Do these simple steps and we promise your pool
will be the source of joy it was meant to be.
Using a Bionizer to manage and control your pool or spa
rewards you with sparkling and healthy water which is a
pleasure to swim or spa in.
