When the filtration is turned off during a long time, a high level of chlorine, and an excessive mixture of
chemical products or after extreme weather conditions, the water of your pool can turn green, brown or
even black. In this case, you may act immediately.
GREEN WATER TREATMENT
If you choose to stop the filtration and winterizing to the pool, you must have a winter cover.
Ask your supplier some advice.
After a complete cleaning of your pool (vacuuming, cleaning the skimfilter, cleaning the water line
surface, etc) and have proceeded to an intensive treatment of the water, you may put inside the pool a
winterizing product and start the system filtration for one hour until the product is totally dissolved,
then:
HIBERNATION OF THE POOL
When the good days come back, you can restart the pool.
Remove the winter cover and wash it. Before the storage, dry it and then pack it.
Clean the coping and the water line surface.
Then adjust the level of the water.
If necessary, use the vacuum cleaner and brush carefully the walls and the bottom of the pool.
Then, follow the instructions in chapter “Green water treatment”
Your pool is now ready to be used and to give you unforgettable moments in family.
