STABILIZER (CYANURIC ACID)
When testing for salt, also test for stabilizer level (cyanuric acid) this test should be done at least once per
month. To know how much stabilizer is required to raise the level to 80 ppm, use the chart below.

POLYMERS:
It is advised to use polymers (commonly sold as poly algaecide) on salt water sanitizing systems. The poly
algaecide is sold in 30% and 60% concentrations.
Application rate is 1 quart of Poly30 (or ½ quart of Poly 60) per 15,000 gallons (60,000 liters) of pool water,
per month. Apply directly in front of the return jet.
