7.3 Maintenance Schedule
The Viron XT Pump incorporates moving parts and
withstands high velocity water with chemicals in it.
Some of these parts will wear in the normal course
of use and require regular checks and maintenance.
Performing these checks and maintenance will
identify parts that have worn and require repair/
replacement before further serious damage is
sustained. A small amount of regular care and
attention to your pool equipment will help ensure
long life and trouble free performance.
To protect against extremes of temperature, your
unit is vented to allow expensive electronics to cool.
Ants and some insects are often attracted to the
warmer, dry environment inside the enclosure. We
recommend that, with power turned off, you spray a
surface insecticide on the surfaces surrounding the
control to prevent ant and insect ingress. Repeat
every three months or as necessary.
Note: Regular maintenance is important to ensure long
life and trouble free performance of your pool
equipment. If unable to perform the maintenance
yourself, contact your local pool professional to
request assistance with the maintenance.
