Preparing the Pool Water
It is important that the pool's water chemistry is balanced before the RJ-Series is powered on and used. In
order for the system to be able to work, there must be a minimum level of salt in the pool water, see “Salt
Levels” below. In order to achieve normal pool operation, water chemistry needs to be balanced according
to the national standards listed under "Ideal Chemistry Levels" on page 6.
DO NOT add chemicals or salt directly to the skimmer. This may damage the Cell. If the system has
already been installed, it should not be turned on before adding salt. Additionally, leave the salt chlorinator
off any time there is a chance of recently added chemicals going through the salt Cell in a concentrated
form.
For New Pools / Remodels: wait 30 days or longer if specified by your builder for plaster to cure before
adding salt.
For Biguanide (Non-Chlorine) Pools: ensure any Biguanide-based chemicals have been removed prior to
startup.
Ideal Salt Levels & Pool Size
The ideal salt level for operation is about 3500 ppm (parts per million), and it is suggested to keep the
salinity between 3000-4000 ppm . To achieve this level of salinity, use the chart on page 7, which will help
you add approximately 30 lbs of salt for every 1000 gallons of water (or 3.6 Kilograms of salt for every 1000
Liters). If you are unsure of the number of gallons in your pool, double-check with the following equations.
