See Section "FILTER PUMP IMPORTANT NOTES" on page 7.
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 and may also change the color of the liner.
3. The pool can be cleaned using a maintenance kit with vacuum from Polygroup®. This item can be purchased at polygroupstore.com.
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 retail package box or visit the support pages at support.polygroupstore.com for the capacity of your pool. You will need this
information to determine the amount of chemicals you will need to properly maintain the pool water. NOTE: It is recommended to use a 5 gallon
bucket of water to mix and dissolve any chemicals before adding to the pool water.
Follow the manufacturer's 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.
7. 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 or as needed.
NOTE :
1. Hot weather or 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 (available at polygroupstore.com) 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 into the pool; this may present a hazard to swimmers and/or damage your liner.
Should you encounter any problems, contact Customer Service at (888) 919-0070 from 8 AM to 5 PM Mon. thru Fri.
