POOL CHEMICALS & ACCESSORIES GUIDE 2012 POOL CARE GUIDE Season Start Up Day 1 1. Test the water you will be using to fill your pool. Testing the water will allow you to identify what minerals and chemical factors may require attention later. 2. Check that your pool filter is clean. If it is not, use Filter Cleanse according to label directions. Soak filter overnight for best results. 3. Begin filling the pool. After the pool is filled with several inches of water, add Sequa-Sol sequestering agent (16 oz./10,000 gallons) to prevent minerals in the water from staining or damaging pool surfaces. 4. As the pool completes filling, add Clear Blue clarifier (4 oz./10,000 gallons) to clear the water of small particles. Fill pool to the middle of the skimmer or the proper level recommended by the manufacturer. Once filled, start the pump and filtration equipment. Run pool filter overnight or 24 hours if possible. While filter is running, it is a good time to vacuum and remove any debris from the pool. For added convenience, use the GLB Pool Care Kit complete with Four-Way Test Strips, Oxy-Brite shock oxidizer, Clear Blue clarifier, Sequa-Sol sequestering agent, Algimycin 2000, Filter Cleanse and Natural Clear enzyme clarifier. Day 2 1. Add Oxy-Brite (1 lb.) non-chlorine shock treatment to 10,000 gallons to destroy any contaminants that have accumulated in the water. Test the ph and total alkalinity levels of the pool water with GLB Four-Way Test Strips or testing kit. Adjust the total alkalinity level to the range of 80-120 ppm (parts per million) with Alkalinity Up. Add ph Up or ph Down to adjust ph levels into the ideal range of 7.2-7.8. 2. Now begin disinfecting the water by adding GLB Chlorine or GLB Bromine Sanitizer to adjust the sanitizer level to the ideal range of 1-4 ppm. Allow water to circulate overnight. Day 3 1. Prevent rapid loss of chlorine due to sunlight by adding GLB Stabilizer. (Not applicable to bromine pools.) 2. Prevent algae from developing by adding Algimycin 2000 (8 oz./10,000 gallons). Easy Maintenance Get Ready for the Weekend... Friday 1. Test the ph, total alkalinity and sanitizer levels of the pool water with GLB 4-Way Test Strips. If necessary, adjust levels with ph Up, ph Down, Alkalinity Up and GLB Granular or Brominating Tablets. 2. Add Algimycin 2000 (8 oz./10,000 gallons). 3. Add Sequa-Sol sequestering agent (4 oz./10,000 gallons) to prevent stains and scale. 4. Add Natural Clear enzyme treatment (8 oz./10,000 gallons) to prevent an oily scum line. 5. Add Clear Blue clarifier (2 oz./10,000 gallons) to add sparkle and remove particles from the water. Party Clean Up Sunday 1. Vacuum pool and clean out the skimmer basket. 2. Wipe off waterline and pool accessories with soft towel. Use TLC surface cleaner for heavy buildup. 3. Add Oxy-Brite non-chlorine shock oxidizer (1 lb./10,000 gallons) to rid water of contaminants. 4. Check the filter operation. Refer to the filter manufacturer s direction regarding when to backwash or clean the filter. Use Filter Rinse each time sand filter is backwashed. Take 5 During the Week Test the ph, total alkalinity and sanitizer levels of the pool water with GLB 4-Way Test Strips. If necessary, adjust levels with ph Up, ph Down, Alkalinity Up and GLB Chlorine or Bromine Sanitizer. Pool Closing Clean Up 1. Brush pool walls and floor. Vacuum any debris from pool bottom. Treat the Water 1. Add Oxy-Brite non-chlorine shock treatment (1 lb./12,000 gallons) to destroy organic contaminants. 2. Add Algimycin Winter (16 oz./12,000 gallons) to prevent algae growth. 3. Add Sequa-Sol sequestering agent (8 oz./12,000 gallons) to protect the pool from staining and scale formation. 2. Clean the filter with Filter Cleanse so it s ready to be used in the spring. 3. Lower the water if you are in an area where water must be lowered due to freezing conditions. Drain all water from pipes, pumps, heaters, filters and other pool equipment to prevent damage due to freezing. If you are in a mild climate where the pool is left full and uncovered, confirm with the manufacturer s directions if the filtration system should continue to operate. If in a mild climate where the pool is left full and uncovered with the filtration system still operating, regularly add GLB Sanitizer, Algimycin 2000 and Sequa-Sol sequestering agent. For added convenience, use the GLB Pool Closing System complete with Oxy-Brite shock oxidizer, Sequa-Sol sequestering agent and Algimycin Winter. Pool Care Tips To get started, you will need to know the size of your pool. My pool is gallons. Rectangular: (length x width x average depth) x 7.5 Round: (length x width x average depth) x 5.9 As you care for your pool, it is important for your pool water to be in balance. Keeping water chemically balanced will prevent the water from becoming corrosive or forming scale deposits, both of which can damage pool equipment. Your pool water should always range in the following chemistry levels: ph Reading: 7.2 7.8 Total Alkalinity: 80 120 ppm Sanitizer Level: 1 4 ppm When caring for your pool, keep these precautions in mind: Always read product label directions prior to using and use only as directed. Never add chemicals to the water when people are in the pool. Never add chemicals through the skimmer system. Instead, add them by pouring in front of a return line or by carefully walking around the pool to distribute. Never mix one chemical with another chemical prior to adding to the water. Always store chemicals in a cool and dry location out of direct sunlight. 6
