is not operating. Bromine needs to be maintained at only 1.0 PPM (parts per million) so that the
trace amount of the product in the water will not be noticed. Chlorine will also work as a
residual oxidizer and may be used effectively in conjunction with the ozone system.
Ozone and Chlorine
For outdoor pools, we recommend the use of chlorine to supplement the ozone. Chlorine
residual will act as a buffer when the ozone system is not operating. Chlorine needs to be
maintained at 1.0 to 2.0 PPM (parts per million).
Water Preparation
To properly prepare the water for the ozone system, make the following adjustments and
maintain the levels outlined below:
Bromine 1.0 PPM or Chlorine 1.0 to 2.0 PPM and pH 7.2 -7.6
Total Alkalinity 100-150 PPM
Calcium Hardness 200-350 PPM
Note: If any unusual reactions are experienced when ozone is introduced into the water (such as
abnormal color or odor), please wait a few days to give the ozone and filter system time to
work.
Algae
Always maintain the recommended residual levels of bromine or chlorine (at least 1 .0 PPM) to
help control algae formation. Brushing poolside once a week is also effective, as is any algaecide.
Shock Treatment
If an unusually high bather load causes cloudiness in the water, it is recommended that a
chlorine shock treatment used to assist the ozone in cleaning the water. Routine, periodic
shocking is recommended to prevent buildup of organic contaminants, especially with indoor
pools.
MAINTENANCE - OZONE GENERATOR
Clean the ozone generator cabinet’s air filter:
This filter must be cleaned regularly. Depending on the location of the unit, it may be necessary
to clean the air filter monthly. The filter elements are located on the bottom of the cabinet (see
illustration below). This is the air intake element for the cooling fan and may therefore require
the most frequent cleaning. The element may be cleaned with soap and water and should be
dried completely before reinstalling.
Note: In a clean environment, this procedure may only need to be performed every three
months.
IMPORTANT: CLEAN THIS FILTER REGULARLY! FAILURE TO DO SO WILL PROMOTE OVERHEATING AND
WILL VOID THE WARRANTY!
