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 this salt to create the sanitizer. 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 sanitizer 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 of a salt level
may damage the power supply and cause corrosion to 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. Salt loss occurs only when pool
water is physically removed from the pool. Salt is not lost due to evaporation.
• Adding Salt
1.
Switch on the unit, then press and hold both and button for 5 seconds,
the LED flashes “FP”. The unit is now in a Filter pump working mode and
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 by not adding 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 (see “System
Operation” section steps 2 to 4) and set the saltwater 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.
