SALT & POOL WATER VOLUMES
• Whichkindofsalttouse:
Use only Sodium Chloride Salts
Useonlysodiumchloride(NaCl)saltthatisatleast99.8%pure.Itisalsoacceptabletouse
waterconditioningsaltpellets(thecompressedformsofevaporatedsalt).However,itwilltakea
longer time for them to dissolve.
Do not use iodized or yellow (yellow prussiate of soda) colored salt.
Salt is added to the pool water and the electrolytic cell uses the salt to create chlorine. The purer
the salt the better the performance of the electrolytic cell.
• OptimumSaltLevels
Theidealsaltlevelinthepoolwaterisbetween2500-3500ppm(partspermillion).Theoptimal
level is 3000 ppm.
A too low salt level will reduce the efficiency of the Saltwater System and result in low chlorine
production.Ahighsaltlevelmaygenerateasaltytastetothepoolwater(thismayoccuratasalt
levelabove3500-4000ppm).Toohighasaltlevelmaydamagethepowersupplyandcause
corrosion to the pool metal fixtures and accessories. The Salt Table page of this manual, shows
the correct dosage of salt needed. The salt in the pool is constantly recycled. The loss of salt is
due only to pool water being physically removed from the pool. Salt is not lost due to
evaporation.
• AddingSalt
1
. Switch the filter pump on to start the water circulation.
2
. Keep the Saltwater System turned off.
3
. Determinetheamountofsalttobeadded(see“SaltTable”).
4
. Evenly spread the proper amount of salt around the inside perimeter of the pool.
5
. Avoid clogging the filter. Do not add salt through the skimmer.
6
. Brushthepoolbottomtospeedupthedissolvingprocess.Donotallowsalttopileuponthe
bottom of the pool. Run the filter pump 24 consecutive hours to thoroughly dissolve the salt.
7
. After 24 hours and if all the salt is dissolved, turn on the Saltwater System, press button
until you hear a “beep”, code “00” flashing and set the saltwater pool system to desired
 operatingtime(see“OperatingTimeTable”).
• RemovingSalt
Iftoomuchsalthasbeenadded,theunitwillbeepanddisplay“Code92”(see“AlarmCodes”).
You will need to lower the salt concentration. The only way to do so, is to partially drain the pool
andrefillitwithfreshwater.Drainandrefillapproximately20%ofthepool’swateruntilthe“Code
92” disappears.
