9.1 Chemical Supply
The installer will recommend a local supplier of the recommended products. For further
information or a list of other suppliers in your area, please contact your local Waterco
branch.
9.2 Cartridge Filters
Users should have two cartridge elements. The first is used as the current filter element. The
second should be soaked in a water bath and Aqua~Health Natural Filter Cleaner for at least
24 hours before being hosed off (follow the dose rates provided on the product).
Aqua~Health Natural Filter Cleaner will dissolve the chemical compounds held within the
element for easy cleaning with a hose as usual, without affecting the Oxiswim system.
Rotating the two cartridge elements will ensure a long cartridge life with no additional filter
element costs over the long term.
9.3 Draining Water
If water is required to be drained from the pool that will take longer than 10 minutes, it is
recommended that the dosing pumps are turned off during this procedure. Once the
process is completed, turn the dosing pumps back on.
9.4 Topping up The Pool
If you fill the pool with new water, please refer to the installation guide (Please refer to 7.
WATER PREPARATION) for instructions.
It is not recommended that Bore or Well Water is used to fill or top up a pool unless it has
been tested and recommended for this purpose.
When topping up your pool with tank water or town water, it must be considered that this
water may contain many contaminants or high metal content.
When topping up the pool, the hose should be placed into the skimmer box whilst the filter
is operating. This is done so that the system will treat the new water as it is filling. This will
help reduce the overall "shock" to the pool that the freshwater may present. The system
will continually treat the new water as it is added to the pool. Higher dosage rates of Perox
sanitiser are generally experienced when freshwater is added; also, consider a manual dose
into the pool before filling up. Minimising splashed water and evaporation can assist with
reducing the amount of Perox sanitiser required to keep your pool looking crystal clear.
