pH BOSS INSTALLATION
pH BOSS INSTALLATION
READ THE DO’S AND DON’TS AND TAKE THE TIME TO INSTALL CORRECTLY.
The pH BOSS can be installed onto a new pool or an
existing pool with minimal pool preparation. Ensure
that the pool is correctly balanced, in particular the
Total Alkalinity.
1. Installing your pH BOSS takes around 30
minutes.
NOTE:
Turn off all valves prior to fitting the T-piece
(avoid leaks), and turn them back on again before
switching pool pump back on.
2. Alternatively engage a competent person to do
the job.
3. If installing it yourself you will need :
!
PVC pressure glue and primer.
!
A fine tooth saw.
4. The Probe/Injection Tee must be fitted on the
pipe that sends water back to the pool after it has
been filtered (the “Return Line”).
!
If a Bionizer and/or Eco-Oxidizer is installed, fit
the pH BOSS tee BEFORE the Eco-Oxidizer and
Bionizer Ionizing Pods.
!
If a Salt Chlorinator is installed, fit the pH BOSS
tee BEFORE the Salt Chlorinator cell. The acid
will help to keep the expensive Chlorinator
cells clean.
!
If a liquid Chlorine injection system is fitted,
install the tee BEFORE the Chlorine injection
point. The acid will help prevent the Chlorine
injector becoming clogged with calcium.
TEE PIECE INSTALLATION
1. For 50mm (2") pipe, cut out a 6cm (2.5") section
of pipe sufficient for the Probe/Injection Tee
piece. For 40mm (1.5") pipe, where the reducing
bushes will be used, cut out a 7cm (2.75") section
of pipe.
2. If the Tee piece diameter is larger than the pipe
then use the 50mm to 40mm reducing bushes
provided by glueing them in place in the Tee
piece before fitting. The pipe should now fit
snugly into the Tee piece.
3.
Be sure to install the Tee piece in the correct
direction of the water flow, as per the arrow on
the Tee.
The Tee piece should be installed so that the pH
O
Probe is within 30 of vertical. (See next page)

For sand filters,
glass or silica sand
media provides
optimum results.
