Preparing the Pool Water
It is important that the pool's water chemistry is balanced before the
Universal 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 Electrolytic Cell has already been installed, it
should not be turned on before adding salt. Leave salt chlorinator off
any time there is a chance of recently added chemicals going through
the salt cell in a concentrated form.
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 5, 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.
Calculating Gallons (Measurements in Feet)
Rectangular - Length x Width x Average Depth x 7.5
Round - Diameter x Diameter x Average Depth x 5.9
Oval - Length x Width x Average Depth x 6.7
Example (rectangular pool):
32’ Length x 16’ Width x 4.5’ Average Depth x 7.5 = 17280 Gallons
