WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM
Results of use with the MPULSE 3000

Pool Water Treatment System may vary. As
with any swimming pool product of this nature, overall success depends on many
factors which include but are not limited to:
Amount of calcium hardness contained in the water (Recommended levels are
200-400 PPM)
Age of water (water should be changed every 3-4 years)
Source of water (private well, municipality, etc.)
Age and wear of the swimming pool surfaces
Chemical maintenance and pH balance
Seasonal temperatures and duration of filtering cycle (8 hours minimum in
season adjust as water requires)
Porous surfaces (i.e. rock features) and splash areas around spill-ways and at pool
water level
Pool owners and service personnel must remember that regular maintenance and
scheduled service must be followed in order for the MPULSE 3000
®
to provide the highest
level of performance. This includes a regular weekly maintenance schedule consisting of
(but not limited to): maintaining a pH level between 7.2 and 7.6, maintaining an Alkalinity
level between 80 to 120 PPM. Maintenance should also include regularly brushing the
water line, spillways, tile, and water features, as well as any other calcium plagued areas of
the swimming pool.
Generally, Muriatic Acid is used in swimming pools to lower the pH level, and to aid in
balancing Alkalinity.
Maintaining a pH level between 7.2 and 7.6 in swimming pool water, helps to ensure
other pool chemicals work properly. It also helps prevent damage to pool surfaces and
equipment, and it also helps prevent eye irritation.
While controlling the form of calcium in the swimming pool, the
MPULSE 3000
®
also
aids in the process of balancing the pH levels by releasing the positive hydrogen ions
from the calcium bicarbonate. In high concentrations, acid can also free these positive
ions from calcium bicarbonate.
Adding unnecessary Muriatic Acid will change the conductivity of the water and could
effect the operation of the
MPULSE 3000
®
and negate the scale reduction.
