be followed.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• WARNING: Disconnect all AC power during installation and or removal of the
equipment.
• WARNING: Potential risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons if the
installation and safety instructions listed in this manual, and on the equipment itself

Hydrochloric Acid (aka. Muriatic Acid).
• DANGER: DO NOT ADD WATER TO ACID. Always add acid to water
• SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
• Heavy pool (or Spa) usage, and/or higher temperatures may require higher chlorine
output to maintain proper free chlorine residuals.
• If additional chlorine is required due to heavy bather loads, use liquid chlorine
(Sodium Hypochlorite) to maintain appropriate free chlorine residual.
• High salt or chlorine levels above recommended range may contribute to corrosion
of pool or spa equipment.
• DO NOT add pool or spa chemicals directly to the skimmer.
• Check expiry dates of test kit consumables.
• Use only original Pool Lab replacement cells with identical model numbers.
• Follow all aspects of local and national Electrical Codes when installing Pool Lab
equipment.
• For outdoor pools, chlorine residuals can be protected from destruction from the
sun by appropriate addition of stabilizer (cyanuric acid)
Health and Hypothermia Warnings
• People with a medical condition should consult a physician before entering the pool
or spa water.
• Maximum safe spa water temperature is 40ºC.
• Bathing in water at 40ºC should not exceed 15 minutes.
