LOAD POOL-GRADE FILTER SAND/FLOWCLEAR™ POLYSPHERE.
NOTE:
Use only special pool-grade filter sand, free of all
limestone or clay: #20 Silica sand 0.45-0.85 mm, approximately
one 9 kg bag should suffice. If you do not use the recommended
size of filter sand, filtering performance will be reduced and the
sand filter may damaged, thereby voiding the warranty.
IMPORTANT:
We suggest using #20 silica sand with your pool
sand filter. It is specially graded to trap particles in the
20 - 100 micron range.
Some small debris can pass throw the sand and back into the
pool. This is normal, especially if the debris is fine or silt.
To limit this, it is better to follow the maintenance instructions,
and backwash and rinse when necessary.
We also suggest contacting your pool dealer for the chemical
product specifically made to clean the sand. The correct
maintenance of the sand will optimize the cleaning efficiency
and avoid accumulation of oils or scale.
When you are vacuuming the bottom of the pool that has a
large amount of debris, we suggest to backwash the sand
when you finish cleaning half of the pool.
Remember to backwash and rinse the sand after vacuuming
the bottom of the pool each time.
NOTE:
To avoid damaging the Skimmer when adding sand,
pour some water into the Bottom Tank to submerse the
Skimmer on the Hub.
NOTE: Sand/Flowclear™ Polysphere not included.
NOTE:
Use 28 g (0.06 lbs) Flowclear™ Polysphere to replace
1 kg (2.20 lbs) sand.

The sand filter must be vertically fixed on ground or a
certain pedestal made of wood or concrete before use to
prevent the sand filter from accidentally falling. Fully
assembled sand filter will exceed 18 kg. The mounting
holes should be 8 mm in diameter and spaced 86 mm
apart. Use two bolts and nuts with a maximum of 8 mm
in diameter to fasten the sand filter to the pedestal.
