SWIMMING POOL MAINTENANCE GUIDE

PROPER STORAGE FOR CHLORINE GRANULES

• Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight

CHLORINE GRANULES CHINA BRAND - IS IT WORTH IT?

• China brand chlorine granules (Superchlor) may be not as effective as Japan brand chlorine granules (Hichlon / Niclon), but it also one of our best selling brands for water treatment purposes and even for resorts.
• Superchlor may also make the pool cloudier because it has a higher calcium content. This is not dangerous. It only makes the pool unappealing.
• Resort owners get more out of Superchlor even if they will need to use more Superchlor than Hichlon / Niclon, because it is less than half the price.

• Dissolve the needed amount of chlorine in a separate bucket of water
• Wait for 30 minutes to make the powder / calcium particles settle at the bottom
• Pour the contents of the bucket into the pool but leave the powder / calcium particles
• Throw out the powder / calcium particles

• Hindi kasing effective ng China brand chlorine granules (Superchlor) ang mga Japan brand chlorine granules (Hichlon / Niclon), pero isa pa din sa pinaka mabentang brands para sa water treatment purposes o sa mga resorts.
• Nakakapagpalabo ng pool ang Superchlor dahil sa mataas na calcium content. Hindi naman po ito delikado. Di lang maganda tignan pag malabo ang pool.
• Sulit talaga para sa mga may-ari ng resort ang Superchlor maski na gagamit ng mas maraming Superchlor kaysa Hichlon / Niclon, kasi talagang mas mura ang Superchlor kaysa Hichlon / Niclon

• Itunaw ang gagamitin na chlorine sa hiwalay na balde ng tubig
• Maghintay ng 30 minutes para bumaba ang powder / calcium particles sa ibaba ng balde
• Isalin ang nilalaman ng balde sa pool pero iiwan ang powder / calcium particles
• Itapon ang natitirang powder / calcium particles

HOW TO CLEAN POOLS WITH ALGAE GROWTH

• Shock the pool using chlorine (Calcium Hypochlorite / Chlorine Granules)
  • Use 4x the regular amount of chlorine or use more if you want the algae to be gone faster
• Make sure pump and filter are turned on
  • Turn on pump to disperse the chlorine in the pool
  • Turn on filter to filter out the dead algae
• Brush the walls and the bottom of the pool
  • Algae films may form on the walls and on the bottom of the pool, so make sure to clean them using a brush (Hayward Pool Brush)
• Wait for 24 hours and check if the pool is clear

HOW TO MAINTAIN POOLS

• Check the chlorine and pH level using a pool test kit (Pool & Spa 3-Way Test Kit)
• If chlorine level is above ideal:
  • Add water
  • or
  • Wait for the chlorine level to go down
• If chlorine level is below ideal:
  • Add chlorine (Calcium Hypochlorite / Chlorine Granules)
• If pH level is above ideal:
  • ​Add Dry Acid HCT
• ​If pH level is below ideal:
  • ​Add water
  • or
  • Add Soda Ash
  • Warning: adding soda ash may make your pool look cloudy
• Check the chlorine and pH level again to make sure they are ideal
• Add Pool Algaecide HCT to prevent future algae growth
  • Please read the guide here

NOTES:

• Our advice is to test the pool every day and adjust to correct levels to prevent algae growth
• Make sure pump is turned on so the chemicals are dispersed
• Make sure chemicals are completely dissolved in the pool before testing or before adding another chemical
  • Dissolve chemicals in a bucket first, then place in pool, so you can test after 20 - 30 min only
  • or
  • Place chemicals directly to the pool and wait until the chemicals are completely dissolved and test after 4 hours
