Ideal Levels
Using a test kit, test chlorine and PH regulalry and maintain as below:
- Chlorine 1-3ppm
- PH 7.2-7.6
To ensure at least 1ppm chlorine it is often sensible to provide some 'buffer' by aiming for a high level, especially if manually dosing. This chlorine donor is alkaline so readjust PH after application to the ideal range above, to promote bather comofrt, plant protection and effective chemical use.
When manually dosing add this product to the pool whilst the pump(s) are turned on, preferably next to water inlets to aid distribution.
