POOL MAINTENANCE 

 

After your pool has been completely installed, follow these instructions to keep it clean and in good condition. 
 
-   Liner 

– Regularly check for leaks in the liner. Use the repair kit for small repairs on the liner. 

-   Pool wall 

– Keep it clean, using a neutral pH detergent. Do not use abrasives, chemicals or cleaning solutions. 

 
 

Rinse out silt chemical products used for water treatment straight away. Coat all visible screw heads with 

transparent outdoor varnish.  
 
 

Check the metal parts for rust, at least once a year. Coat all scratches and rusted areas with an anti-rust 

primer. Follow the instructions for applying the paint. 
 

 

 

At the end of the season, drain the water until the water level is 30 cm. Remove the upper part of the liner 

and check for possible rust on the inner side of the pool wall. 
Pay special attention to leaks in the filter and outlet holes. Leaks must be repaired straight away. 

 

SHOCK CHLORINATION 

 

 

Destroys  quickly  and  efficiently  all  microorganisms,  bacteria  and  fungi  if  the  chlorine  level  is  raised  up  to  20 

ppm approximately. 
 
Shock chlorination is recommended in the following cases: 
  
a) At the beginning of the bathing season. 
b)  Depending on special weather conditions (i.e. storms, rain, etc). 
c)  In case of intensive use of the swimming pool. 

 

Cleaning the bottom of the swimming pool by  aspirating: only for pools with skimmer and filter with 

engines 6, 8, 10 y 15 m³.

 Connect the end of the hose to the brush and immerse it in the water for the hose to 

get filled up. Connect the other end of the hose to the aspiration cover and put it on the basket of the skimmer. 
Start the filter system in Drain Off mode and start cleaning the bottom. 

 

Cleaning  the  bottom  of  the  pool with  a venturi  sweeper  jet:

  Connect  a  hose  to the  head  of  the  venturi 

sweeper jet and immerse it in the swimming pool. Open the tap with a normal pressure and the venturi sweeper 
jet will start working. The water bounces on the ground producing an upwards flow that collects and deposits the 
dirt inside the filter-bag. 

 

Problems 

Causes 

Solutions 

Murky water 

Poor filtration. High pH. Excess 

of organic residue. 

Backwash the filter. Add a flocculating agent with a dispenser. 
Carry out a shock chlorination except in cartridge filters. 
 

Green water 

Algae formation. 

Brush the bottom and the wall of the pool. Analyse 

the water’s 

pH  and  adjust  to  between  7.2  and  7.6.  Carry  out  a  shock 
chlorination and add extra anti-algae bactericide.  

Brown water 

Presence of iron and 

manganese. 

Analyse 

the  water’s  pH  and  adjust  to  between  7.2  and  7.6. 

Carry out a shock chlorination. 
 

Lime deposit 

Water calcium salts. 

Analyse 

the  water’s  pH  and  adjust  to  between  7.2  and  7.6. 

Add anti-calcareous product once a week.  
 

Eyes and skin 

irritation 

Imbalanced pH. Excess of 

organic residue. 

Analyse 

the  water’s  pH  and  adjust  to  between  7.2  and  7.6. 

Carry out a shock chlorination. 

 

CARE DURING THE WINTER MONTHS 

 

If  the  pool  is  not  dismantled  during  the  winter,  follow  these  instructions  at  the  end  of  the  season  to 

prepare  your  swimming  pool  for  the  winter.  Do  not  drain  all  the  water.  Never  leave  an  empty  swimming  pool 
outdoors. Decrease the water level to just below the skimmer opening. Cover the pool with a protective cover. To 
keep the cover flat, place an inflatable object or floater between the water and the cover. This way, the liner is not 
damaged by rain, frost and/or ice. You can also add a chemical product to the water in order to protect the liner 
against freezing. This product also facilitates the cleaning of the liner after winter time.
