PREPARING YOUR POOL IN THE SPRING
At the end of winter, allow the ice in the pool to thaw completely. When the temperature
reaches approximately 10 °C (50 °F), you have to restart your filtration system, since
algae and bacterial form more quickly as it gets warmer. Here is how to prepare
your pool in a few simple easy steps.
a. If your pool is equipped with a pool cover, remove the cover and
cushion. Carefully remove with a hose any rainwater that has
accumulated on the cover so it does not fall into your pool.
Clean your cover and cushion and let them dry. Store
them in a dry clean place.
b. Attach the return inlet and skimmer to the filter. Bring
the water level up to the middle of the skimmer. Get
your filter working. Clean the bottom of the pool with
the vacuum, taking care to place the filter in the
“waste/drain” position. In this way you will eliminate
particles of dirt without disturbing the sand in the
filter, and will considerably reduce the need for
“backwash rinsing” of the filter.
c. Now that you have purified the water, you have
to test it. It is very important that the pH level of
your pool be between 7.6 and 7.8 and the pool’s
alkaline content be between 80 ppm and 130 ppm.
If you are unable to attain these levels, please
contact your retailer who will gladly do these
tests for you.
Important Note:
Do not drain your pool to clean the water unless absolutely necessary (the water
is recyclable). If you do empty your pool, don’t leave it empty for too long or
expose it to direct sunlight, as the liner may shrink.
