Water turbid, whitish
Possible causes:
- Poor filtration
- High pH
- Excess organic waste
- Hard Water
Steps for Solution:
- Check the operating status of the filter.
- Take a filter backwash.
- Add 1 l of liquid flocculant per 100 m3 of water.
- Analyze and adjust pH between 7.2 and 7.4.
- Add 15 g of granulated Dichloro per m3 of water.
- Keep chlorine between 1 and 1.5 ppm.
- At night, with the detainee filter adds flocculant. The next morning, all particles will have settled to the bottom.
- Put the filter valve to “WASTE” and passes the cleaner.
- Filter for several hours and then make a sand WASH.
- If the water has high hardness, add some product Antical.
Green water
Possible causes:
- Algae
Steps for the solution:
- Perform shock chlorination with 15 g of dichloro granules per m3 of water.
- Add 3.5 liters of algaecide per 100 m3 of water.
- Adjust the pH between 7.2-7.4.
- 8 hours after the shock treatment done, brush the walls and bottom of the pool.
- Put the filter valve to “WASTE” and sucks the dead algae with sending cleaner water directly to the drain.
- Put the filter valve in position “WASH” to wash the sand.
- Increasing the daily dose of chlorine and algaecide.
Brown or colored water
Possible causes:
- Presence of salts arising from a drop in the pH of the water.
- Sales of copper = blue / green
- Sales of iron and manganese = brown
Steps for its solution:
- Adjust the pH between 7.2 and 7.4.
- Add 15 g Granulated Dichloro per m3 of water.
- Then, add 1 liter of liquid loculante F per 100 m3 of water.
- At night, in calm water, adds a decanter and leave on until morning.
- With the filter set to “WASTE” passes the cleaner to remove particles that have settled to the bottom,
- pouring all the dirt down the drain.
Stains on walls
Possible Cause:
- Presence of metal ions
Steps for its solution:
- Empty the pool and clean the spot with Extra Desincrustante surfaces.
Inlays
Possible Cause:
- Precipitation of calcium salts in water
Steps for its solution:
- Adjust the pH between 7.2 and 7.4.
- Add a weekly Extra Anti-Limestone.
Water has foam
- Excessive concentration of algaecide.
- Organic waste in the water: suntan lotion, sweat, etc. ..
Steps for its solution:
- Evacuating a portion of the respective drain water (as needed) and filled with new water.
- With the filtration equipment in position “BYPASS” made a shock treatment.
- Adjust the pH between 7.2 and 7.4 and the free chlorine level between 1 and 1.5 parts per million (ppm.).
- Use an algaecide product without foam.
Eyes and / or skin irritated and water an unpleasant smell chlorine
Possible Cause:
- Presence of chloramines and free chlorine low.
Steps for its solution:
- Adjust the pH between 7.2 and 7.4 with an increaser or pH reducing product.
- Make a shock treatment or use a chlorinated product.
- Keep the chlorine level between 1 and 1.5 ppm.
- Spend the cleaner and filters the water throughout one day.
Irritated eyes, bleached hair tissues and gives off an odor but NO
Possible Cause:
- Excess free chlorine.
Steps for its solution:
- Decrease the daily dose of chlorine to a level between 1 and 1.5 ppm
Eyes, skin and irritating odors are
Possible Cause:
- unadjusted pH
- Excess organic waste
Steps for its solution:
- Analyze the pH and adjust it between 7.2 and 7.4.
- Perform a chlorination with 15 g of dichloro granules per m3 of water.
