First days of maintenance
During the first 10-15 days your pool system will require more attention and the following care:
1
Make sure the pH remains on the ideal level (7,2 - 7,5). If the pH is unusually unstable and uses a lot of acid check the alkalinity (recommended levels
between 80 y 125 ppm).
2 The pool must be vacuumed and the skimmers cleaned whenever necessary to ensure perfect water conditions.
REMEMBER that the system requires a certain amount of time to adapt to your swimming pool and will require additional chemicals during the first
3-5 days.
Cleaning the titanium cell
If necessary, carry out a monthly visual inspection. To clean the cell:
1
Remove the cell from its support (after turning off the filtration system and closing off the necessary valves).
2 Place the cell for no more than 10 minutes in 15% hydrochloric acid (1,5 l of acid for each 8,5 l of water).
3 Once the incrustations have softened remove with a hose to complete cleaning the cell.
DO NOT USE METALIC OR SHARP OBJECTS TO REMOVE INCRUSTATIONS. Scratching the edges or surface of the cell will make it vulnerable to
chemicals, deteriorate the cell and cancel the guarantee.
Water adjustments
1
Adjust the alkalinity between 90 and 110 ppm’s.
2 Adjust the pH between 7,2 y 7,5.
3 Adjust the chlorine between 1 y 1,5 ppm’s.
•
In case the water is supplied from a well: Shock
chlorination with trichloroisocyanuric acid (2 kg /
50 m
3
of water).
Adding salt to the water / conductivity
1
We recommend to add 5-6 g of salt (without iodine) for each liter of water in your
swimming pool (5 to 6 kg NaCl per m
3
water).
2 Open the bottom valve of your swimming pool and add the salt directly to your
swimming pool water. Let the circulation pump run during the first 24 hours.
•
The system may operate while the salt is dissolving and will operate without problems
with salt concentrations from 2,5 g/l to 50 g/l.
•
In pools with strong insolation, it’s necessary to add 40 gr/m
3
of stabiliser (isocyanuric acid).
General maintenance
1
The pool must be vacuumed as usual and the skimmers emptied whenever necessary.
2 FILTER BACKWASHING: The system requires only occasional filter cleaning; once every 20 days should be sufficient (providing
the filter pressure does not exceed 1 bar, in which case a filter cleaning may be necessary).
VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure the cell is off while cleaning the filter. If the system controls the filtration pump, use the option “filter cleaning” of the
programmed filtration mode. See section 5– Filtration / Filter Cleaning of the General Installation Guide.
3 ADDING NEW WATER: Always through the skimmers so that the new water passes through the system before entering the pool. Remember to
add the necessary salt (6 gr) per added liter of water.
4 In winter changing the pool water is not recommendable. We recommend that the system runs 2-3 times per week (2-3 hours per day).
5 DOSING PUMPS: Check regularly to ensure that the container contains liquid to prevent the dosing pump of running dry. The dosing pump
requires maintenance (SEE INSTRUCTIONS ON BOX).
6 pH PROBES / redoX / CONDUCTIVITY: Probes must be cleaned whenever necessary (check every 5-6 months). To clean the probe insert in
distilled water (clear liquid). After each cleaning the probes must be calibrated. Also: the probes should never dry out and must be kept wet if stored
(when emptying the pool for winterizing, make sure to store the measuring head in water).
