Steps for treating and converting a new filtered portable pool with Sanit-eezy:

Step 1:

• EEZY SANITISER is NOT compatible with chlorine or bromine. For first time use, add CHLORINE REMOVER initially to pool water 2 hours prior to adding Eezy Sanitiser.
• Dilute 25gms per 2,000 litres of Chlorine Remover in a bucket of water.
• Run the circulation pump and add the Chlorine Remover.
• Run for 2 hours prior to adding any other chemicals.
• Chlorine Remover should always be added if pool is topped up or is refilled as Chlorine may be present in the tap water.

Step 2:

• For first time use, add the non-chlorine shock treatment at the rate 50gm per 10,000 litres.
• For regular use, the shock treatment must be added weekly at 50gm per 10,000 litres
• It should also be added if the water is looking cloudy.
• Take care not to over dose with the shock treatment. The pool water may develop a green tinge if large doses are added, however the water is fine to use and should clear in 7 to 10 days.

Step 3:

• For first time use, add Eezy Sanitiser at the rate of 60mls per 10,000 litres of water (one cap equates to approximately 20mls). NOTE: Water may turn cloudy but this will clear in 2 to 3 days.
• For regular use, Eezy Sanitiser must be added weekly at 60mls per 10,000 litres.
• Water must be tested frequently with a Biguanide test kit, particularly after heavy pool usage.
• Eezy Sanitiser (Biguanide) should be maintained between15-20 ppm. If levels are low after testing, add more Eezy Sanitiser or rebalance the water as necessary.

IMPORTANT: Take care not to overdose with Eezy Sanitiser as water will become cloudy and may smell.

Step 4:

• 1 day after the first dose of Eezy Sanitiser, add the water clarifier at the recommended dosage.
• Continue to add weekly at 60mls per 10,000 litres to maintain water clarity.

Step 5:

• All water filters require cleaning or changing. Check the filter regularly to determine if it needs cleaning.
• Filters must be cleaned at least weekly or if water has become cloudy.
• To clean the filter, remove the filter cartridge and follow the directions on the Filtrite filter cleaner labelling.

To correct this:

Partially drain pool and refill, adding chlorine remover.

2. Possible cause - Poor water circulation and filtration:

To correct this:

• Remove filter cartridges and clean with a Filtrite Filter Cleaner available from Clark Rubber

3. Possible cause - Incorrect water balance.

To correct this:

• Have water professionally analysed at your local Clark Rubber store and obtain some expert advice.
