For advice, procedures and a how to guide of how to look after your pool yourself please see the hints and tips below.
Of course if you don't have the time or need a little more hands on advice we will be happy to come out and either sign you up for a maintenance contract or take you through how best to look after your pool.
1. Backwashing Filter
Remember ‘never turn Multi Port Valve when pump is ‘ON’
- Switch pool pump off’.
- Ensure sump and skimmer valves are open.
- Select ‘BACKWASH’ on M.P.V.
- Switch pool pump ‘ON’.
- Backwash until the sight glass has cleared. (This is typically 1 - 2 minutes)
- Switch pump ‘OFF’.
- Select ‘RINSE’ on M.P.V.
- Switch pump ‘ON’.
- Rinse for approx. 10 Seconds or until the sight glass is clear.
- Switch pump ‘off’
- Select ‘FILTER’ on MPV.
- Switch pump ‘ON’
After Backwashing the filter it may be necessary to top pool back up to the correct level, this is usually half way up the skimmer throat. THIS WILL EITHER BE DONE AUTOMATICALLY IF YOU HAVE TOP UP FITTED OR BY HOSE PIPE IF NOT.
3. Chemical Testing
After the pool and filter have been cleaned, it is vital to check and adjust your pool’s chemical balance and levels.
Depending on the frequency of use it is a general recommendation that the chlorine and pH level be checked and, if necessary, maintained between:
- Chlorine: 2 - 3 ppm. (parts per million)
- pH: As close to 7.5 as possible (usually 7.2 -7.6)
Actions:
- If chlorine is low add Chlorine Granules. (Follow instructions on container for dilution and mixing according to pool voluum.)
- If a chlorine/bromine feeder is fitted, top up with fresh tablets. Alternatively, add one or two large chlorine tablets to the skimmer basket. (This depends on the volume of your pool.)
- If pH is reading high above 7.6, add dry acid (pH Minus/Dry Acid),
- If below 7.4 add Alkali (pH +).
- It is also recommended to add the following every week:
- Filter floc / water clarification tablet (Jolly Gel or Goldifloc) and/or liquid (Sparkle) on a weekly basis.
