General Rule of Sizing: In areas with year-round use and high water temperatures, such as Florida, Texas, Arizona, Las Vegas and Southern
California, the following must be considered:
Year Round Use: Up-sizing the chlorine generator or adding more than one unit may be recommended for pools that are close to the maximum
size and used year round. Please consult your pool professional.
High Water Temperatures: Becausechlorinedemandincreaseswiththeriseofwatertemperature,adjustmentsmustbemadeinordertokeepup
with chlorine demand. In hot summer months, where the water temperature rises above 85ºF, you must increase the pump run time, increase the
chlorine production rate (%), increase the Stabilizer (cyanuric acid) to 75-85 PPM, and super chlorinate with other chlorine agents other than the
chlorine generator, to reach break-point chlorination.
