1. Prendi un'acqua sample from your pool, away from skimmers or return jets.
2. Dip one of the provided test strips into the water for a few seconds.
3. Remove the strip and compare the colours on the strip to the colour chart provided on the test strip bottle or user guide.
4. Note down the levels for Chlorine, pH, and Alkalinity.

5. Operating Instructions: Chemical Application

Always refer to the dosing guide included in your kit for precise measurements based on your pool size and current water test results. Apply chemicals gradually and re-test water after each application to ensure desired levels are achieved.

5.1. Chlorine Granules (500g)

Chlorine granules are used for disinfecting the water and for shock treatment to kill bacteria and algae. Maintain a chlorine level of 1-3 ppm (parts per million).

• Applicazione: Dissolve the required amount of chlorine granules in a bucket of warm water before adding to the pool. Pour the solution slowly around the edges of the pool, avoiding direct contact with pool liners.
• Trattamento d'urto: For initial treatment or when water appears cloudy/green, a higher dose may be required. Consult the dosing guide.
• Frequenza: Add chlorine regularly, typically daily or every other day, depending on usage, sunlight exposure, and water test results.

5.2. pH Plus (500g) & pH Minus (700g)

Maintaining the correct pH level (7.2-7.6) is vital for swimmer comfort, chemical efficiency, and preventing equipment corrosion. Use pH Plus to increase pH and pH Minus to decrease pH.

• To Increase pH (use pH Plus): If your pH reading is below 7.2, dissolve the recommended amount of pH Plus in water and add to the pool.
• To Decrease pH (use pH Minus): If your pH reading is above 7.6, dissolve the recommended amount of pH Minus in water and add to the pool. pH Minus also helps reduce high alkalinity.
• Applicazione: Add chemicals in small increments, allowing the water to circulate for several hours before re-testing.

5.3. Algaecide (500ml)

Algaecide helps prevent and combat the growth of algae, which can make pool water green and slippery.

• Initial Dose: Add the initial recommended dose of algaecide directly to the pool water, distributing it evenly.
• Maintenance Dose: Follow up with a maintenance dose weekly or bi-weekly, as per the dosing guide, to prevent future algae growth.
• Nota: Algaecide is a preventative measure; for existing severe algae blooms, a shock treatment with chlorine is usually required first.

5.4. Dip Test Strips (25 strips)

These strips provide quick and easy measurement of chlorine, pH, and total alkalinity levels. Regular testing is essential for effective water management.

• Utilizzo: Dip a strip into the pool water for 2-3 seconds, remove, and do not shake off excess water.
• Lettura: Immediately compare the colour pads on the strip to the colour chart on the bottle.
• Frequenza: Test your pool water at least 2-3 times per week, or more frequently during heavy use or hot weather.

6. Routine Maintenance and Water Management

Consistent maintenance is key to clear and healthy pool water.

• Filtrazione: Ensure your pool filter runs for an adequate amount of time each day (typically 8-12 hours) to circulate and clean the water.
• Skimming and Brushing: Regularly skim debris from the surface and brush the pool walls and floor to prevent dirt and algae buildup.
• Livello dell'acqua: Maintain the correct water level in your pool to ensure proper skimmer and filter operation.
