Danger warnings

To maintain a swimming pool or mini-pool in perfect efficiency, the

rules are few but basic. Just a few hours after filling, although the water

appears clear and clear, a fast and progressive process of pollution as the

air, bathers and the surrounding environment continuously introduce

dirt into the water and this soon turns into food for bacteria and algae

causing turbidity and unpleasant smells.

To counteract effectively this process that we call “natural” it is possible

to intervene in two phases in a simple and rapid way. The first stage is

what we could call “mechanics”. By means of a circuit of filtering, we

can eliminate dirt and more superficial deposits quickly and safely as

they are easily retained from the filtering devices. The second phase is

the strictly chemical one which consists in treating water with specially

designed products to counteract and prevent birth of mold, bacteria and

algae in order to make the water chemically perfect as a swimming pool,

suitable for swimming.

The water treatment has to be performed by by the user of the product.

Typical parameters to check and maintain are:

pH 7,2-7,6

Cl 1 – 1,2 ppm

Alkalinity 80-120 ppm

Hardness 150-250 ppm

Read the guide on water treatment, follow the instructions reported on the products used and comply with all applicable legal provisions.

If everything works correctly, the first programming for the use of the

swimming pool with whirlpool can start. After programming, the

swimming pool with whirlpool can be covered with thermal cover. Then

wait for the programmed temperature to be reached; the wait, which

will mainly depend

from the initial water temperature, it will be a few hours.

The first heating, depending on the model, of the temperature water and

weather conditions, will require a warm-up time of 12-24 hours. Never

turn on the eletric power if the swimming pool with hydromassage is not

filled with water, do not damage the control box, the heating element,

the pumps and other systems.
