PLUMBING CONNECTIONS
All water connection operations must be
performed after making sure that the minipool's
water supply valve is CLOSED.
The connection must be made by an experienced,
qualified plumber.
It is recommended to use ONLY tap water. If this
is not possible refer to the "more information"
section to the side.
The plumbing connection must be:
• Dedicated exclusively to the minipool (it is not possible
to connect other equipment to the same connection).
• Made with hoses and connectors that are new and
never used.
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE WATER SUPPLY
The optimal values for the water supply are as follows:
• Hardness between 7ºf and 14ºF (fresh water) - 200 to
400 mg/l (ppm).
• Total alkalinity (TA) between 80 and 125 mg/l (8-12.5°F).
• pH between 7.4 and 7.8.
• minimum inlet pressure: 150,000 Pa (1.5 bar)
• minimum inlet pressure: 300,000 Pa (3 bar)
• Water suitable for human consumption.
Make sure that during the pre-installation all the
characteristics of the water supply have been met (see
"Pre-Installation Sheet" on p. 9).

WATER HARDNESS
Water hardness (TH) is determined by the total content
of calcium and magnesium present in the water, coming
from their soluble salts.
Water classification:
........up to 7ºf = Very soft water
From 7ºf to 14ºf = Soft water
From 14ºf to 22ºf = Slightly hard water
From 22ºf to 32ºf = Fairly hard water
From 32ºf to 54ºf = Hard water
........more than 54ºf = Very hard water
(1°f = 10 mg calcium carbonate per litre of water)
WATER ALKALINITY
Alkalinity (CAT) represents the concentration of
bicarbonate ions present in the water. It is expressed
as mg/L of calcium carbonate or in French degrees (°F).
Ideal values of alkalinity range between 80 mg/L and
125 mg/L (8°F-12.5°F). Values outside of this range
can more easily cause variations of the pH. Instead,
alkalinity within the range noted makes it possible
to "buffer" the pH value, resulting in fewer abrupt
variations.
WATER PH
What is pH?
The pH is a chemical parameter that gives an idea of
the acidity or basicity of the water. It can assume values
between 0 and 14. By definition water is considered
neutral if its pH is equal to 7. It is acidic if the pH is lower
than 7 and basic if the pH is greater than 7. Disinfectants
have an ideal pH at which they are most effective. In
the case of heated water treated with bromine products
it is recommended to keep the pH value in the range
from 7.4 to 7.8 using chemical correctors as needed
if the pH is higher or lower to bring the the pH value
back to the recommended interval.

TAP WATER AND WELL WATER
To ensure maximum hygiene and durability of the
minipool it is essential to pay close attention to the
quality of the water that will be used to fill it. It is
important that the water used be drinkable. It is always
advisable not to use well water because it may be very
hard, rich in metals like iron and manganese, and have
bacterial loads. Tap water is recommended. In the case
of very hard or ferrous water it is always recommended to
install softening and iron removal systems upstream. The
company cannot be held responsible for issues related
to the use of non-drinkable water or lack of installation
of such systems. The plumber is responsible for choosing
the type of components to be used and the verification
of compliance with the purity and potability parameters
of the water supply.
