RESPECT THE ENVIRONMENT
DO NOT TAKE APART THE POOL UNLESS IT IS STRICTLY NECESSARY. IF YOU DO SO, PLEASE REUSE THE WATER. WATER IS A
SCARCE GOOD.
MAINTENANCE AND USE:
- Switch on the filter system once a day in to insure a complete water volume renewal and never do it when somebody is in the pool
(see filter manual).
- Check the filter's level of clogging regularly in summer when the pool kit is in use.
- Check screws, nuts and washers (for rust).
- The pool water level has always to be hold in a minimum of 15 cm from the pool superior edge.
- Never empty the pool completely. Low water levels may cause serious damage to the pool.
- Failure to comply with the maintenance instructions may lead to serious health risks, especially for children.
- The use of a swimming costume entails respect for the safety regulations set out in the maintenance and user guide.
- Never leave a pool kit empty on the ground, outdoors.
- Clean regularly the P.V.C liner and the water level mark with non-abrasive products. Regularly clean the fold joining the bottom to
the side of the liner, as it is an area where
dirt accumulates. If you do by accident a small hole in the liner, you can repair it thanks to our rubber patches AR202 or V12.
- The isothermic covers (for the summer) protect your pool from insects, dust, leaves,... and avoid to loose the water temperature.
Do always set it in order the bubbles are in contact with the water.
WINTER-SEASON:
1- Clean the liner bottom and sides with a non-abrasive product.
2- Treat the water with a chemical product for wintering. We recommend using LIQUID WINTERISER instead of floats with solid
product to avoid discolouring the liner.
3- Leave the pool full of water considering:
a) For pools with skimmer and refulling pipe, reduce the water level 5 cm underneath the skimmer and close the refulling pipe with
the screw tap which is included with the filter.
b) For pools with exhaustion and refulling pipes, reduce the water level 20 cm from the superior edge of the pool and close the pipes
using the screw system incorporated.
4- Disconnect the pipes. Do not dismount the skimmer and the refulling and exhaustion pipes.
5- Protect the pool with a winter cover, and put a floating element between the cover and the water, in order to protect it from frost.
6- Filter: disconnect it from the pool. Clean it, empty the sand or remove the cartridge, dry it and keep it in a covered and sheltered
from dampness place.
7- Accessories: remove every accessories (ladder, alarm, spotlight, pole...), rinse them with soft water and tidy them away.
TO RUN THE POOL AGAIN: Remove the winter cover, install the filter, change at least 1/3 of water and realize a chlorine treatment.
Switch on the filter for at least 8
hours in an uninterrupted way, respecting the continuous working period indicated in the filter manuals.
CHIMICAL MEASURES:
Please read carefully the chemical product manufacturer instructions. WARNING: Keep chemical products in a clean, dry and out of
children place. Important: Every products used have to be compatible with the P.V.C liner.
- First filling: Analyse the water pH and chlorine (Cl) and adjust them to the optimal levels: pH: 7,2 – 7,6; Chlorine: 0.5 – 2 ppm.
- Chlorine treatments: Consist in increasing the chlorine level until approximatively 20 ppm to eliminate germs and seaweeds. This
process has to be done only when the pool water comes from rivers or ponds, ... or if it stayed a long time without any treatments.
- Checking: Check at least once a week the chlorine levels (use a chlorine and pH analyser). In the same way, we advise to add an
algicid to prevent seaweeds appearance.
Never have a swim before the chlorine level stabilization. Do always use a floating dispenser for the chemical product (tablets)
dissolution. The chemical product measuring out has to be done in accordance with: Your pool water volume, the bathe frequency,
the climatic conditions, the water temperature and the location. Do always move the water and wait for the chemical product
dissolution before adding another one. Wait approximatively 12 hours between any pH, chlorine or algicid adjustment using the filter
