Day to Day Operation

 

 

Four Prime rules must be observed if your unit is to give the best possible service: 
 

4. 

STABILISER

 

The importance of pool stabiliser in 

outdoor

 pools cannot be over-emphasised.  It is essential in helping 

retain chlorine in your  pool. Chlorine is rapidly dissipated by sunlight and the use of stabiliser will reduce this 
dissipation substantially.  Without stabiliser, it may be necessary to run the Unit for up to three times as long!

 

water. Stabiliser should be  maintained at a level of 15 to 20 ppm. Before adding more stabiliser, have your 
pool water analysed at your pool  shop to ensure that you do not add too much. Stabiliser is NOT 
recommended for indoor pools. 

 

5. 

pH AND TOTAL ALKALINITY:

 

A correct pH level must be maintained to prevent problems such as black spot, staining, cloudy water, etc.  
An  incorrect pH level can damage the pool. Correct pH levels are as follows; Fibreglass Ð 7.2 to 7.4 Concrete 
& tiled

 

Р7.4 to 7.6. If you allow the pH level to rise to 8.0 or above, the chlorine required could be as much as 

three times  the normal amount.

 

 

Total Alkalinity should not be confused with pH, although the two are closely related. Total Alkalinity 
determines  the speed and ease of pH change. The ideal range is 80 to 150 ppm, or refer to your pool 
professional. 

 

You should use a test kit which includes a test for Total Alkalinity. Low Total Alkalinity can cause unstable pH 
levels Ð i.e. an inability to keep the pH constant may cause staining, etching and corrosion of metals. High 
Total  Alkalinity will cause constantly high pH levels. 
 

IMPORTANT: For the ORP control to function correctly, pH and Total Alkalinity MUST be maintained 
at the correct levels. 

 

6. 

SALT LEVELS:

 

 

 
Salt is the essential element by which your Unit operates. Not enough salt means not enough chlorine Ð this 
simple rule governs the total operation of your 

EcoSaltª REDOX, and

 insufficient salt will damage your Cell.

 

 

RECOMMENDED SALT LEVEL RANGE:  

4500 - 6000ppm

 

 

 

Salt is NOT used up in the process of producing chlorine or by evaporation. Salt is only lost through 
backwashing, splash-out, 

overflow or by leakage from the pool or plumbing. Heavy rain can dilute the salt 

solution in  your pool; therefore salt levels should be checked during this season. 
 

Low salt levels will destroy the coating on the Anode plates and will void all Warranty.

 

The EcoSalt REDOX has a built in warning indicator to minimise damage resulting from insufficient salt 
levels, however, the ultimate responsibility is on the owner to ensure adequate salt levels are maintained all 
year round. 
 

Warning:  Some people recommend that you put salt directly in the skimmer box. This is a 
very  poor  practice as it allows very high concentrations of salt to be passed through your 
filtration and other pool equipment.

 

Warning:

 

Do not add Hydrogen Peroxide to pool water or through swimming pool hydraulic or 
sanitiser system. Use of Hydrogen Peroxide will void warranty on Davey products.
