10. SERVICING
During the fi rst 10-15 days, your system will require more attention:
- Check that the pH remains at the ideal level (7.2 to 7.4).
- If the pH is exceptionally unstable and uses a lot of acid, check the alkalinity (see table).
If the balance is highly unstable, contact your pool installer/builder.
REMEMBER that the system needs a certain amount of time to adapt to your pool and will require additional chemicals
during the fi rst 3-5 days.
The pool must be regularly maintained and the skimmer baskets emptied whenever necessary.
Also check that your fi lter is not clogged.
DOSING PUMPS: Regularly check the acid level to ensure that the pump does not run dry. The dosing pump must be checked
and serviced at regular intervals. The Santoprene tube of the peristaltic pump has a lifetime of 2 years. We recommend that
you change it once a year.
Servicing the probe
The probe must be clean and free from oil, chemical deposits and contamination to function properly. As it is in continuous
contact with the water in the pool, the probe may need to be cleaned weekly or monthly, depending on the number of bathers
and other specifi c pool characteristics. A slow response, more frequent pH calibration and inconsistent readings indicate that
the probe needs to be cleaned.
To clean the probe, turn off the power to the ProChem Double.
Unplug the probe connector from the control box, unscrew the probe and carefully remove it from the chamber. Clean the
probe bulb with a soft toothbrush and regular toothpaste.
A household washing-up liquid detergent may also be used to remove any oil.
Rinse with fresh water, replace the Tefl on tape on the threads, and reinstall the probe.
If the probe continues to give inconsistent readings or requires excessive calibration after it has been cleaned, it should be
replaced.The lifetime of the probes is 1 year. We recommend that you calibrate them every month during the season the
pool is in use.
Wintering
The ProChem Double cell, the fl ow switch, probe and pool piping run the risk of being damaged if the water freezes. In regions
that experience long periods of cold weather, be sure to drain all the water from the pump and fi lter and from the supply and
return pipes before winter. Do not remove the control box.
Probe storage
The end of the probe must always be in contact with water or a solution of KCl. If it is removed from the measuring chamber,
it should be stored in the plastic cap provided (fi lled with water). If the storage cap has been mislaid, the probe should be
stored separately in a small glass or plastic container with its end immersed in water.
The probe must always be in a frost-free environment.
