• For the first week test the
pool water daily for free chlorine
to ensure correct dial setting.
Continue to test weekly
throughout the season.
• After each testing, adjust the dial
up by 1/2 increment if the free
chlorine reading has dropped
below 0.5 ppm or adjust down by
1/2 increment if the reading has
risen above 1.0 ppm. Continue this
process each day until the free
chlorine reading stabilizes to at
least 0.5 ppm.
• Shock pool every two weeks
or as needed to maintain water
