8.1.2. Water Balancing
Once the e-Clear system is installed,
proceed to balance the water.
Step 10
With the pool pump running and e-Clear
system switched off, adjust the calcium
hardness to 200 - 300ppm using calcium
flakes (available from your local pool shop).
Roughly 8 kg of Calcium Flakes per 50 000L of
water renders a calcium residual of 300ppm, if
calcium at 0ppm. Calcium should then only be
tested once or twice a year.
Have the calcium tested at a pool shop
or purchase a calcium test kit from us
Step 11
Adjust the pH to between 6.8-7.2 using
hydrochloric pool acid. The water is most
stable and copper ionization most effective at
6.8. Try to keep it there! Never allow the pH
to rise above 7.2, the copper ions may fall out
of suspension and be rendered ineffective,
possibly staining your pool. The pH in gunnite
or marbelite pools must therefore be
maintained more strictly.
Warning
High pH will damage your electrodes and
cause a build-up on your electrodes rendering
the sanitization process impossible.
Step 12
Switch on the e-Clear system making sure all
switches are on and all dials are at 100%. The
display should show a blue oxygen reading of
between 1.50 - 2.00 and a red ionization
reading of between .200 - .350 If lower, check
calcium or connections.
Step 13
Once switched on it should take a week or two
for the copper residual to rise to the required
effectivity level of 0.5ppm and the silver
residual to rise to 50ppb. To speed up the
process we recommend running your pool
pump and e-Clear 24 hours a day. During this
time, it may be necessary to shock the water
to kill algae and maintain water quality. Use
hydrogen peroxide or chlorine.
Step 14
Phosphates are food for algae. They are added
to your pool by municipal water, rain runoff,
grass, leaves and swimmers. Phosphates
should be kept at 0ppb. Use a phosphate
remover, available from your pool shop.
Step 15
Test copper residual once a week using
supplied copper test kit and adjust using ionic
dial as necessary to maintain a residual of
0.5ppm. This process will also adjust and
control the silver residual at 50ppb
Step 16
Alkalinity should be kept at around 60-80ppm
for best results with the e-Clear system and to
maintain stable pH behaviour. A little soda
bicarbonate can be added to raise alkalinity to
the required level. Not more than 1kg per day.
Beware this will also raise your pH.
Step 17
Once your copper level reaches 0.5ppm and
silver 50ppb your pool is running on the
patented e-Clear system. Run your pool pump
normal hours (around 6-10 hours a day for
average sized pools). You should not need to
add anything except pool acid to adjust your
pH.
Step 18
On a weekly basis- check pH, check copper,
backwash and rinse, and perform normal pool
maintenance, clean pool of leaves, grass and
brush walls.
