Maintenance Tips

•Salt Level: Aim for a happy medium of 3200 ppm. This range between 2700 and 3400ppm will ensure the best overall results! It's a wise move to check the salinity levels at least once per month, especially after heavy rain or lots of use. Avoid adding too much Salt, If you add too much, your salinity levels can skyrocket and take forever to come back down. Adding slowly is key; any sudden changes run the risk of throwing off chlorine production Guide on how to balance Salt Pool

•Salt Cell: Regularly clean your Salt Cell, make sure to inspect your salt cell every 3 months. If deposits are present, use a pressure washer or diluted muriatic acid solution for tougher buildups. Taking care of your salt cell is easy - just don't forget to read up on cleaning directions before getting started!

•Keep the water circulating: To know if the water is circulating make sure you check the salinity around all corners of your pool with a digital tester or test strips. If there are large discrepancies between numbers then point the jets toward the areas with low salt levels to circulate the water

•During an intense lightning storm, it is wise to turn off the chlorinator in order to protect your control board from any potential damage due to power surges

•Shock every few weeks: Shock your pool or turn up the "BOOST MODE” on your saltwater generator to quickly raise chlorine levels, blast away contaminants, and make sure no algae manages to remain in sight.

•keep that pool clean! Give your swimming spot the cleaning it needs every week with a net, brush, and vacuum.

Tips for proper Chemical balance in your Salt Pool

•Chlorine Level: Your salt water generator produces chlorine, which is a key part of keeping your pool clean and safe. To maintain an optimal level for swimming, you should aim to have 1-3 parts per million of free chlorine in the water - 3 ppm being ideal!

•Alkalinity: Maintaining the alkalinity in your pool is like keeping a buffer between you and disaster! Alkalinity levels should ideally be bouncing around 80 to 120 ppm, or else things could get… really rocky. And don't forget - salt water generators will always raise pH naturally Guide on Alkalinity

•pH levels: Optimal pH levels are essential, saltwater pools can lead to higher pH levels in your pool, resulting in all sorts of undesirable effects like burning eyes and itchy skin. High readings can also damage the equipment keeping your water crystal clear. Here is a guide on pH and how to balance it

•Calcium Hardness: Keep Calcium levels in your pool balanced by following the manufacturer's guidelines for salt chlorine generators. Keeping them as low as possible will help ensure a healthy and enjoyable swimming environment! Here is a guide on Calcium Hardness and how to balance it

•Cyanuric Acid: It's often referred to as CYA or stabilizer and helps protect the chlorine from burning off too quickly due to sunlight. To get it just right, aim for between 30-50 PPM - though you can also bump that up a bit if necessary. Too much of anything isn't good so don't go overboard but just enough will ensure your summer days stay safe
