I. Housekeeping
You should vacuum and brush your pool weekly. Run the filter at least 8–12 continuous hours a day during the season; longer during periods of heavy use or after a heavy rain. Ideally, you should run the filter 24 hours a day.
In addition to routine backwashing, clean the filter twice during the season with BAQUACIL Universal Filter Cleaner to keep it operating at maximum efficiency. For extended swimming seasons the filter should be cleaned at least 3 times a season. In regions with high summer temperatures or pools with a history of algae problems, we recommend that you introduce an algae preventative program. Use BAQUACIL Algicide or BAQUACIL Performance Algicide. Follow the label directions for a preventative algae program.
II. Water Balance
Check pH and alkalinity every week with BAQUACIL 4-Way Test Strips. Take a pool water sample to your Authorized BAQUACIL Dealer once a month during the season for a complete analysis, or after significant makeup water is added.
III. Water Testing
There will be times when you take a water sample to your Authorized BAQUACIL Dealer for professional analysis. For example, after you add a significant amount of new water, or after a heavy rain. In fact, it’s a good idea to take a sample to your Authorized BAQUACIL Dealer about once a month during the season.
