2.  GENERAL  OVERVIEW

Congratulations on the purchase of your NKD1 Fresh Water System. Please take a moment to read through 
the entire manual before installing your new unit. Your system must be installed and operated as 
speci ed.

While every effort has been made to ensure that the information contained in this guide is accurate and complete, 
no liability can be accepted for any errors or omissions. Naked Pools Pty Ltd reserves the right to change the 
speci cations of the hardware and software described herein at any time without prior notice.

Your NKD1 Fresh Water System is a true environmentally friendly system requiring far less maintenance than 
traditional sanitisers. This hybrid swimming pool and spa sanitisation system uses a combination of copper and 
silver ionisation as well as oxidation to treat and provide fresh water. This delivers up to 70% less salt/mineral levels 
than its rivals, resulting in record low levels of chlorine being produced.

Please remember that your NKD1 Fresh Water System is not designed to chemically maintain your pool water and 
keep it balanced. We encourage regular water and copper testing, balancing and correction if & when required to 
maintain the recommended balanced levels of your pool water. This is a vital part of a complete maintenance 
program and will ensure 

trouble-free fresh water pool.

There is one design in our Naked Pools Fresh Water System range:

NKD1 is designed to optimally sanitise swimming pools up to and including 100,000L of water. Smart self-cleaning 
technology allows the polarity of the OXI Cell plates to change direction every 4-16hrs (depending on your 
setting). Reversing times can be changed, see 7.3 CELL CLEANING. The change of polarity causes the calcium to 
dislodge and keep the OXI plates clean. Please note occasional cleaning of the plates may be necessary.

The ION Rods change direction every 3 minutes to ensure even wear and tear. 
Please note the Rods are sacri cial and will have to be changed from time to time

 

(typically every 2 years) 

depending on the size of your swimming pool.
Visit www.naked-pools.com or call 1800 NAKED1 (625 331) for further information.

2.1  Recommendations and Helpful Hints

• Read and keep your manual in a safe place.
• Operate the unit on manual when large number of swimmers are present to ensure sufficient water 
turnover.
• Maintain your copper level between 0.2-0.4ppm at all times.
• Check your copper levels weekly with the test kit provided. 

Please note pH must

 

be adjusted to correct levels to ensure an accurate reading see 8.3 pH.

Visit www.naked-pools.com or call 1800 NAKED1 (625 331) for further information.
