Water Chemistry

Check water chemistry regularly and maintain within recommended levels. Standards vary in different residential and commercial applications. Follow all local applicable codes.

NOTICE

- Failure to heed the following may result in damage to equipment.

Do not allow water to flow through heat pump when refinishing or acid washing a pool. Either use an installed bypass to route water away from heat pump or deactivate filter pump.
To avoid damage to equipment, monitor and maintain chemistry within recommended levels.
