TIPS FOR WINTERIZING
All our steel wall swimming pools are
winterproof. They can be filled with water
also in the winter (water level in the pool at
least three-quarters). Never leave the pool
without water over the winter. We recommend
to add a winter preservative when winterizing
your pool, which makes the basic cleaning in
the spring much easier. After you added the
winter preservative (set the filter system to
the "Circulation" position for about 2 hours to
ensure a good distribution), the filter system
can be demounted (for sand filter systems,
please remove the quartz sand completely
and store the filter system in the frost-free
area). In case of cartridge filters, leave
the water level unchanged. For sand filter
systems, lower the water level to below the
skimmer edge, close the inlet nozzle with a
winter protection cap, and remove the hose
from the skimmer so that rainwater is drained.
Underground pipes/pipe systems are to be
emptied to avoid any damage caused by
possible freezing.
In the autumn, the pool should be covered
with a winterproof tarpaulin and closed so
it is childproof. Access to the pool must be
blocked to avoid drowning.
GENERAL INFORMATION
•
Use only tap water and never well water
to fill your swimming pool. Well water is
often highly ferruginous. When water care
agents are added, the pool water can turn
brownish in colour.
•
Set the correct pH value of the water
Immediately after the installation, and carry
out a first shock chlorination (alternatively,
use other water care agents, if desired).
•
If you use a cartridge filter, do not use
a flocculant, as this may clog the filter
cartridges.
•
Never add water care agents directly to the
water, but add chlorine tablets, for example,
via a dosing float.
•
Refill fresh water regularly.
•
This swimming pool is designed for
installation as freestanding pool only, it
is in no case suitable for an in-ground
installation. (Non-observance will void your
warranty.)
•
The pool must always be filled with water,
since otherwise it will lose its stability. In
addition, the liner could shrink when there
is no water in the pool.
•
Fill water no higher than max. 5 cm below
the top rail.
•
The filter system should run about 6 to 8
hours every day. Please remember to clean
the filter cartridges regularly, or replace
them after 6 weeks.
•
The floor should be cleaned regularly
with a floor cleaner/suction device.
