Refer to "Basic Water Chemistry" and "Using the Saturation Index" sections in this manual for further
information concerning pool/spa water chemistry maintenance requirements.
See "Troubleshooting" on page 25 for assistance with resolving low or high chlorine issues.
Basic Water Chemistry
The ChlorSync
®
is designed to produce chlorine on a daily basis. To monitor the system’s
efficiency, the water chemistry ranges and a schedule of periodic checks should be followed.
See Table 2 on the following page for recommendations.
CAUTION - Failure to heed the following may result in equipment damage.
l Excessively high chlorine levels can cause premature cell depletion and corrosion damage to pool
fixtures and equipment.
l Always turn the ChlorSync
®
unit off before adding chemicals to the pool/spa.
l Never use dry acid to adjust pH in arid geographic areas with excessive evaporation and minimal
dilution. A buildup of by-products can damage the cell.
l Always follow the instructions on the manufacturer's label whenever handling or using chemicals.
