MAINTAIN LEVELS
To prevent staining & damage to linings & fittings pH: 7.2 – 7.6 in marbelite pools or 7.0 – 7.2 in fiberglass pools. Test weekly Chlorine: 1 – 3ppm. Test weekly Total Alkalinity (TA): 80 – 120ppm. Test monthly Stabiliser (cyanuric acid) < 50ppm . Test at least once per season Copper/Iron: 0. Test once per season
FILTER
Summer: 12 hours per night Winter: 6-8 Hours per night NB: Filtering hours may vary due to pool volume and pump/filter throughput
BACKWASH/RINSE
