If you are storing liquid chemicals (Chlorine & Acid) in the same location, it is advisable to keep
these chemicals stored in visually different containers, whether by colour and/or size, ie Liquid
Chlorine in a 15L blue container, and Liquid Acid in a black container or clear 5L container.
•
If concentrated pool acid and chlorine are mixed together outside of the pool water, they will
produce a poisonous gas.
•
The
Oasis SmartChem
is not designed to bring the Pool/Spa system into balance; it is designed
to maintain a balanced system. If you need to balance your pool system before installing the
Smartchem, add the pool chemicals slowly and carefully allowing an appropriate interval of time
for the added chemicals to properly mix throughout the pool system. Continue testing and adding
chemicals until the pool system becomes balanced.
o
If you add large quantities of chemicals quickly, you may overdose the pool water. It may
then take weeks for the pool water to remove these chemicals through natural
dispensation and return to a balanced state.
•
Make sure that the squeeze tube in the peristaltic pump is lubricated every 6 months and for
optimum performance replaced every 12 months. When lubricating the tube, only use an
appropriate silicone based lubricant. DON’T use a petroleum based lubricant as damage may
occur to the tube which may lead to the tube leaking and premature replacement of the tube which
won’t be covered under warranty.
•
If you are doing any work on the
Oasis SmartChem
peristaltic pump , tubing, or probes, be sure
to deactivate Acid Dosing (see Chemical Setup page 9 of this manual).
