HOTLINE
CAUTION! The following problems, associated with inappropriate use or maintenance of the membrane,
are not covered in the scope of the guarantee:
• Creases that appear after the liner has been fitted, these can be caused by sliding of the membrane
on loose soil or an uneven surface, or physico-chemical properties of the pool water that are outside
the acceptable ranges: water temperature should be less than 28°C, pH should be between 7.2 and
7.6 and the concentration of the sterilising agent should be within the range recommended by the
manufacturer of the water treatment products.
• If wrinkles persist as of fitting despite all installation conditions having been respected, inform the
after sales service immediately.
• The appearance of yellow stains or discolouration along the water line.
These may be the result of deposition of organic compounds floating on the water surface (sun creams
and oils, residue of hydrocarbon combustion or smoke from wood fires). To prevent this from happening,
clean the water line regularly using products designed for this purpose (not supplied) and a non-abrasive
sponge.
Very hard water can also be the cause of this type discolouration due to the build up of calcium deposits
on the membrane. Hard water (TH greater than 225 ppm) should be treated with a product to eliminate
calcium and suitable for use in pools (not supplied).
• Stains caused by the growth of algae and micro-organisms: the pool water should be treated regularly
with an appropriate dose of algaecide.
• Stains, discolouration and wrinkles caused by direct contact with oxidizing agents (thrown directly
into the pool) or pockets of excessively high concentrations of oxidising agents (frequently associated
with failure to run filtration during the dissolution phase of the oxidising agents).
• Stains caused by stagnation and/or decomposition of a foreign body in direct contact with the liner
(dead leaves, oxidizable metallic objects, miscellaneous detritus, etc.)
• Damage caused by direct contact with incompatible materials such as bitumen, tar, oils, polystyrene
panels, polyurethane. Never apply adhesive tape or glue to the membrane.
• Tears that occur while fitting the liner caused by shifting the liner without releasing it from the liner
locking track first.
