OPERATION
1
All eld-installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains, or other similar hardware located
within 10 feet (3 meters) of the pool, spa or hot tub shall be bonded to the equipment grounding bus with
copper conductors not smaller than 8 AWG US/ 6 AWG Canada.
Water Chemistry
CAUTION: Dry acid can cause a buildup of by-products that can damage chlorinator cell.
Consult professional pool service man to advice you on proper use, especially on material selection,
installation advises, pool care. As the salt is an inherently corrosive material, CFPT can not make sure
any other equipments in or around pool will not corrosion.
Avoid chlorine gas build up. When pump is OFF, A build up of ammable gases will result in hazardous
conditions.
Add acid to water, do not do opposite.
CHEMISTRY TIPS
New Pool Water: A recently lled or newly-renished pool may contain undesirable matter. This undesirable
matter could interfere with the CFPT ability to chlorinate properly. Make sure the water is tested by a pool
professional and properly balanced before switching on the CFPT.
Super Chlorination burns out the swimmer waste that has combined with chlorine. This frees the chlorine
for sanitizing. This is accomplished by raising the chlorine level quickly and dramatically. When the chlorine
level is raised to ten (10) times the amount of combined chlorine the pool water is said to have been super
chlorinated. As pool water is continuously passed through the CFPT while the unit is powered on, the water
inside the CFPT is being super chlorinated.
NOTE: On initial start-up of a pool, it is best to super chlorinate using an outside source, i.e., use a shock
treatment available at your local pool supplier.
Chloramines should not be present in pool water. Chloramines are formed when ammonia (which is found
in urine and sweat) combine with free chlorine. This ties up the free chlorine in your pool and does not
allow the chlorine in your pool to disinfect. Chloramines also burn the eyes and are foul smelling. Super
Chlorinate to remove chloramines at the initial start-up of the pool and as needed to maintain proper levels
of free chlorine.
