SALT & POOL WATER VOLUMES
• Which kind of salt to use:
Use only Sodium Chloride Salts
Use only sodium chloride (NaCl) salt that is at least 99.8% pure. It is also acceptable to use
water conditioning salt pellets (the compressed forms of evaporated salt). However, it will take
a longer time for them to dissolve. Do not use iodized or yellow (yellow prussiate of soda)
colored salt. Salt is added to the pool water and the electrolytic cell uses the salt to create
chlorine. The purer the salt the better the performance of the electrolytic cell.
• Optimum Salt Levels
The ideal salt level in the pool water is between 2500-3500 ppm (parts per million). The optimal
level is 3000 ppm.
A too low salt level will reduce the efficiency of the Saltwater System and result in low chlorine
production. A high salt level may generate a salty taste to the pool water (this may occur at a
salt level above 3500-4000ppm). Too high a salt level may damage the power supply and cause
corrosion to the pool metal fixtures and accessories. The Salt Table page of this manual, shows
the correct dosage of salt needed. The salt in the pool is constantly recycled. The loss of salt is
due only to pool water being physically removed from the pool. Salt is not lost due to
evaporation.
• Adding Salt
1. Switch the filter pump on to start the water circulation.
2. Keep the Saltwater System turned off.
3. Determine the amount of salt to be added (see "Salt Table").
4. Evenly spread the proper amount of salt around the inside perimeter of the pool.
5. Avoid clogging the filter. Do not add salt through the skimmer.
6. Brush the pool bottom to speed up the dissolving process. Do not allow salt to pile up on the
bottom of the pool. Run the filter pump 24 consecutive hours to thoroughly dissolve the salt.
7. After 24 hours and if all the salt is dissolved, turn on the Saltwater System,
press button until you hear a "beep", code "00" flashing and set the saltwater
pool system to desired operating time (see "Operating Time Table").
• Removing Salt
If too much salt has been added, the unit will beep and display "Code 92" (see "Alarm Codes").
You will need to lower the salt concentration. The only way to do so, is to partially drain the pool
and refill it with fresh water. Drain and refill approximately 20% of the pool's water until the "Code
92" disappears.
