M). SETTING THE UNIT TO THE DESIRED LEVELS
Included with every unit is an Ion Test Kit. The easy-to-use instructions are located on the inside
cover of the lid. Please follow those instructions carefully, as the reading you get is most important
in how you set the Aqua Elite 50. When using this test kit, make sure you wait 3 minutes for the
test to develop and look down into the tube, not from the side. There is a reading or color match for
0.15 and one for 0.20 on the enclosed chart. Ideally, we would like the readings to be anywhere in
that area.
Once the desired level is obtained, you will need to find a setting point on the control box where the ion readings will
remain in that range of 0.15 and 0.20. The biggest factor is water temperature. As a rule of thumb, if the pool is 10,000
gallons, the reading on the control box should be around 2 or 3. It may be lower in cooler climates, or higher in warmer
climates. Someone in Maine may keep the level at 1, while in Florida it may be 3. A 20,000-gallon pool may need a
reading of 4 or 5. A 50,000-gallon pool may need a reading of 7 or 8. This is also based on running the system 8 hours a
day. It is all proportionate. So if the pool ran 24 hours a day, the settings would be 1/3 that.
When you lower your setting, it is best to test on a daily basis. If the readings continue to go up, lower the setting and
retest the following day at about the same time. If the reading goes down, increase the setting, and test again the next day.
Eventually you will find the proper setting. Once you do, the setting will stay near that the entire season. If your pool is
open year round, like in Florida, you will have a lower setting in the winter and a higher setting in the summer.
N). PROPER PROCEDURES OF MAINTAINING A HEALTHY POOL

maintaining a proper pool. Please refer to that sheet whenever possible. If you ever
have any questions, contact your dealer or Clearwater Enviro for any assistance.
