POOL WATER CARE
NOTE :
1. Hot weather/heavy use may require pH and chlorine levels to be maintained on the upper side of the scale and superchlorination of the pool every week.
2. Using a pool cover and/or solar cover will assist in maintaining your pH and chlorine levels by reducing the amount of evaporation from your pool.
CAUTION -
Concentrated chlorine levels and low pH levels will damage pool. You must follow the instructions for the pool chemicals you use, as to quantity
and recommended usage. NEVER drop lumps or pellets of chemicals in pool; this may present a hazard to swimmers and/or damage your liner.
1. The following items are required and readily available from your local pool supply store:
• TEST KIT - Used to check chlorine and pH levels.
• 1” CHLORINE TABLETS - Used to disinfect pool water and help control the growth of algae.
• pH CONTROL CHEMICALS - Used to adjust pH levels Up (Soda Ash) or Down (Acid).
• ALGAECIDES - Used to eliminate algae.
• SUPERCHLORINATOR - Used to destroy combined chlorine, ammonia, nitrogen, and organic compounds.
• LEAF NET with handle - Used to remove leaves, trash, insects, etc. from pool.
• CHLORINE DISPENSER (Supplied with Polygroup
®
’s patented Filter Cartridge U.S. Pat. 7,005,062) - Used to dispense 1” chlorine tablets ONLY.
2. Use test kit daily to check pH and chlorine levels. Adjust accordingly using the required chemicals.
NOTE :
Excessive levels of chlorine or low pH levels will damage pool liner.
3. The pool can be cleaned using a garden hose powered vacuum from Polygroup
®
or a pool supply store.
4. Using a foot bath near the pool to wash off your feet prior to entering the pool will assist in keeping the pool clean.
5. Well water often presents special problems with water chemistry. If you must use well water, take a sample to your local pool chemical supplier for analysis before
adding ANY chemicals.
6. Refer to the POOL’s USER MANUEL for the capacity of your pool. You will need this information to determine the amount of chemicals you will need to correct the
pool water. NOTE: It is recommended to use a 5 gallon bucket of water to mix and dissolve your chemicals and then applying directly to the pool water.
Follow manufacturers label directions on all chemicals.*Most pool supply stores will test your pool water for free and advise you of what chemicals you need, and
the correct amount to use for your pool. You will need to tell them the pool capacity in gallons.

IMPORTANT -
We cannot over-stress the importance of proper and adequate daily chemical treatment. Chlorine and pH levels must be properly maintained at all
times. PUMP AND FILTER ALONE WILL NOT PREVENT ALGAE FROM GROWING IN POOL WATER; THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE BY MAINTAINING
PROPER CHLORINE AND pH LEVELS AT ALL TIMES.
• Maintain pH level between 7.3 and 7.8.
• Maintain chlorine level between 1.0 and 1.6 ppm (parts per million).
• Superchlorinate your pool at least every other week.
