Total Alkalinity should be adjusted to 125 -175 ppm for all pool types. To raise total alkalinity use Guardex Alkalinity Increaser per label directions

Calcium hardness should be adjusted to 200-275 ppm for plaster pools and 175 - 225 ppm for painted, vinyl or fiberglass pools. To raise calcium hardness use Guardex Calcium Hardness Increaser per label directions.

Metals should be absent from your pool water. If metals are present in the pool or in your source water treat the pool with Guardex Stain and Scale Prevention per label directions.

Conditioner levels should be less than 150 ppm.                                                    

Clean your automatic feeder and remove all other chemicals from the skimmer and feeder. TURN THE AUTOMATIC FEEDER TO THE LOWEST POSSIBLE SETTING before you start-up on the SNAP System.

Add SNAP INITIATOR with the pump and filter running at the rate of one container for every 10,000 gallons of pool water.

Apply SNAP INITIATOR by pouring directly into the pool skimmer. DO NOT backwash the filter for 48 hours and allow 4 to 8 hours of circulation (pump running) after application.

SUPERCHLORINATE to remove any chlorine demand from the water by adding Guardex Super Chlorinator 60 at a dosage rate of 1 lb. for every 10,000 gallons of pool water. Test for free chlorine 24 hours after shocking. If your pool water does not have a minimum of 2 ppm free chlorine, repeat the superchlorination procedure.
