Water Chemistry Management

Proper water chemistry is essential for equipment longevity and swimmer safety. Jandy systems integrate with chemical controllers for automated management.

  1. pH Level: Maintain 7.2-7.8 for optimal equipment operation
  2. Chlorine Levels: 1.0-3.0 ppm for proper sanitation
  3. Total Alkalinity: 80-120 ppm to stabilize pH
  4. Calcium Hardness: 200-400 ppm to prevent scaling
  5. Salt Levels: 2,500-4,000 ppm for chlorine generators
  6. Stabilizer: 30-50 ppm to protect chlorine from UV degradation

WARNING! Chemical imbalance can damage equipment and create unsafe swimming conditions. Test water regularly.

Seasonal Operation

Proper seasonal procedures protect equipment during off-seasons and ensure smooth startup.

Winterization: Drain equipment, blow out lines, add antifreeze, cover pool. Spring Startup: Remove cover, refill pool, prime system, balance chemicals. Summer Operation: Monitor equipment performance, maintain proper chemistry. Fall Preparation: Clean system, adjust run times, prepare for winter.
