We recommend using salt that is especially prepared for use in salt water
chlorination installations,
to achieve optimum results. You can find it at retailers specializing in swimming
pool products.
ATTENTION
When adding salt to the swimming pool, first disconnect the
chlorinator (position OFF), and start-up the filter for 3 or 4 hours, in order for
the salt to dissolve and not to overload the equipment. Once dissolved, start-up
the chlorinator.
It is advisable to add salt to the swimming pool gradually, in 2 or 3 times so as
not to exceed the recommended amount. Excess salt can overload the
chlorinator, in which case it will automatically stop working and water will have
to be added to reduce the concentration.
We also recommend not to add salt near the drain, to avoid undissolved salt
from circulating in the water circuit.
2.2 Chemical balance of the water
The effectiveness of chlorination and the quality of water for healthy bathing,
depends largely on the pH of the water. Therefore, it should be checked
regularly and adjusted as necessary.
There are other parameters which should be considered for the correct
operation of the salt water chlorinator. We recommend an in-depth analysis of
the water when installing a salt water chlorinator.
