Residential Pools 567 gm (1.25 lbs) per 24 Hour period. Residential Pools One (1) unit per 57 m (up to 15,000 gal) pool (year round use).
Page 22 7. Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Adding salt to pool water will raise the TDS level. While this does not adversely affect the pool water chemistry or clarity, the pool water professional testing for TDS must be made aware salt has been added for the AquaPure system. The individual performing the TDS test will then subtract the salinity level to arrive at the correct TDS level. 8. New Pool Water in a recently filled or newly refinished pool may contain undesirable matter.
Page 23 4.7.2 How Much Salt to Use? Use Table 1 to determine how much salt will be needed. Most pools contain some salt depending on the water source and chemicals used for sanitizing. If the AquaPure has not been wired and turned on yet, a hand held meter calibrated for NaCl (salt) can be used to determine the existing salt concentration of the water. If the AquaPure is wired in (connected), use it to determine the salinity. Set Chlorine Production to 00%.

Page 27 5.2 Reading the Display Cell On The CELL ON indicator shows that the cell has been turned on by the AquaPure. Some reasons for the CELL ON indicator not being on during normal operation, are: CHLORINE PRODUCTION set to 00%, CHLORINE PRODUCTION set to less than 100% and Cell Resting appears during cell rest period, NO FLOW condition, two minutes before automatic cleaning cycle, Low temperature cut off has been activated, or a service related problem such as a salinity level below 2.
Page 28 Beeper Control Beeper operation and volume control can be adjusted. To adjust volume control, press and hold the TEMPERATURE button for 15 seconds. The system will beep once when pressed, once after 10 seconds and once after 15 seconds. Release the key after the third beep. Press the SALINITY button within 5 seconds to enter the temperature change screen. The system will display a ‘1’ followed by ‘F’ or ‘C’. Press the TEMPERATURE button to move to the second parameter screen.
Page 29 5.4 Startup 5.4.1 Shocking Shocking (Super Chlorination) is recommended before pool startup. Start out with good pool water from the beginning. The AquaPure will build up a sufficient level of chlorine for sanitation in several hours. However, if pool water has a high demand from the startup the AquaPure will not be able to produce enough chlorine to reach break point chlorination. So, it is best to super chlorinate from an outside source at the time of pool startup.
Page 30 5.6 Recommendations DO List • Read and keep your manual in a safe place. • Increase Chlorine Production before party time and return to normal afterwards. • Increase Chlorine Production when temperature goes up. • Increase Chlorine Production when number of guests goes up. • Use Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid) to stabilize Chlorine in Pool. • Mount Power Center in shade or out of the direct sunlight whenever possible.
Page 31 Section 6. User Maintenance Instructions The following information describe how to care for your AquaPure. 6.1 Daily None. 6.2 Weekly 1. Chlorine Test. Test pool water chlorine level with a reliable test kit. Maintain ideal range by adjusting the AquaPure chlorine production rate using Section 5.4, Startup. Recommended Free Chlorine is 1-3 PPM. Note It is recommended that chlorine test samples be taken from two places, one at the pool return line, the other well away from the pool return line.
Page 32 “Scale” is a white crusty deposit that forms in excessively hard water or from pool water that is out of balance and in a scaling condition. Following the installation of the AquaPure, check the cell once a month for several months. If the cell is clean, replace and re-check at the end of each swimming season. If the cell shows excessive scaling, go on to Step 2, Acid Wash Cleaning. 2. Acid Wash Cleaning.
Page 33 6.6 Winterizing Very little chlorine is needed in cold water. Below 51 degrees Fahrenheit, chlorine production is not permitted; operating the chlorinator in cold water might result in over-chlorinated pool water. If more chlorine is needed, activating the “Boost” mode will override this cold water feature allowing chlorine production for 24 hours of operation. See Section 5.1, Using the Front Panel Controls.
Page 34 Section 7. Troubleshooting NOTE: Turn off power to unit prior to attempting service or repair. 7.1 Problems and Corrective Action Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action Low or no chlorine. Low stabilizer (cyanuric acid) level in pool water. Add stabilizer to maintain 50 - 75 PPM per pool professional’s recommendations. See Section 4, Table 3, Stabilizer Chart. Insufficient operating hours of the AquaPure unit. Increase the AquaPure operating time per day.
