Simple Salt Pool Water Care Guide
Simple Salt Pool Maintenance
Start the season by having your pool water professionally tested and adjust as needed. This is necessary for chemicals to work effectively as well as protecting your liner and Qpool equipment from premature wear!
Add Salt
Upon fresh water fill, and the start of the pool season, add 1 - 40lb. Bag of salt to pool.
Add Simple Salt Prime
Add a 25lb. Bucket of Simple Salt Prime by broadcasting. Turn on the Simple Salt system and set dial to 3 to start. Stay out of pool for 24 hours. This is done at the start of every season.
Weekly Maintenance
Add 1lb. of Simple Salt Shimmer per 10,000 gal. per week through the skimmer.
Add 1/2 pint of Simple Salt Vivid directly into the pool every week.
Test pool weekly with easy to use test strips.
Just dip and compare colors. Adjust pH, Alkalinity, and Calcium as needed.
Maintain a mineral level of .3 - .5. This takes about 3 days after initial start-up. Adjust dial on unit to increase or decrease.
Run The Pool
Run filter system at least 8-12 hours a day. If you have a 2 speed pump, run the system 24 hours a day on low speed!
Clean filter as needed
Sand Filters: Only backwash when the pressure builds up or return flow slows down. Sand filters filter out finer particles as they clog up. If you keep the filter too clean it will not work efficiently!
Cartridge & DE Filters: Clean whenever the pressure builds up or return flow slows down. If you have a DE filter make sure to add DE every time you backwash!
