1. 

Doing it right the first time.

 Before using this product, read the manual and 

follow the step-by-step Quick Setup instructions.

2. 

A fresh start.

 Have your pool water professionally tested and properly balanced 

before using ePOOL. ePOOL is not guaranteed to work on pools or spas with 
grossly unbalanced chemical levels and/or severe bacterial growth. 

3. 

First things first.

 Insert battery in floating unit and place in pool before you plug 

in the indoor receiver.  You may receive data within the first 15 minutes. Please 
allow 4-6 hours for ePOOL to acclimate to your pool chemistry before making 
any chemical adjustments. 

4. 

Know your pool.

 ePOOL bases its treatment recommendations on the infor-

mation you provide it. During set up, it is important that you give it accurate 
information about your pool’s size and type.

5. 

Establish good communication.

 

The ePOOL floating unit and the 
indoor receiver communicate  
best when they are in line of sight 
of each other and  no more than 
100 feet apart (see Diagram A).  
We recommend you place the  
receiver next to a window that  
has a direct view of your pool.

6. 

Prevent loss of communication.

 Do not place anything over the floating unit or 

obstruct the communication of the indoor receiver by placing something large 
in front of it. If you use a pool cover, create a space for ePOOL to float freely.

7. 

Handle with care. 

If you remove the cap on the floating unit, avoid touching the 

glass lens on the bottom. Never set the floating 
unit down without the cap in place or you will 
damage the glass lens (see Diagram B).

8. 

Prevent damage.

 ePOOL is intended for 24/7 

use. However, you should remove the floating 
unit during periods of high pool use or severe 
weather conditions.

9. 

Protect and maintain.

 The glass lens must be 

kept moist. Always lock the bottom cap on the 
floating unit with the wet sponge inside when 
the unit is out of water for any length of time.

10. 

Receiver care.

 The receiver is not intended for 

outdoor use. Always keep the receiver indoors in 
a cool and dry place and in a direct line of sight  
of the floating unit.
