To Start Up A New Pool, Open A Pool For The Season Or Convert From A Chlorine Based Program:
Backflush or clean the filter, chemically balance the calcium hardness and alkalinity and adjust pH to 7.2 to 7.8. Superoxidate to obtain a residual of 10 to 20 ppm available bromine (5 to 10 ppm for chlorine) as determined by a suitable test kit. Swimming may begin when the bromine level drops below 8 ppm. When the bromine level drops below 1 to 3 ppm, add 0.2 to 2 ounces of this product per 1,000 gallons daily, or as needed. Use a suitable feeder device adjusted according to the manufacturer's instructions so as to maintain 1 to 3 ppm available bromine. Use a reliable test kit to monitor for bromine regularly. Maintain the pool water pH between 7.2 to 7.8. High temperatures, the presence of organic debris, high bather use and other factors may require more frequent treatmnets.
