For pools with high chlorine demand, the timer may have to be set longer to generate enough chlorine. If optional AQL-CHEM sensing is NOT used. To find the optimum desired output % setting, start at approximately 50%. Test the chlorine level every few days and adjust the setting up or down accordingly. It usually takes 2-3 adjustments to find the ideal setting for your pool/spa and after that, it should only take minor, infrequent adjustments. Because the chlorine demand of the pool increases with temperature, most people find they have to adjust the desired output up at the peak of the summer and down during the colder periods. NOTE: After the ideal setting has been found, you may need to raise the setting when the pool water temperature increases significantly, when there is higher than normal bather load or when your chlorinator cell ages. You may need to lower the setting when the pool water temperature decreases significantly or there are long periods of inactivity. 11

Operation
Assuming that the water chemical levels are in the recommended range, there are
three factors that you can control which directly contribute to the amount of chlo-
rine the Aqua Rite Pro will generate:
1.
filter run time each day (hours)
2.
the desired output % setting or ORP setting (when using AQL-CHEM)
3.
the amount of salt in the pool
The filter pump timer should be set so that entire volume of pool water passes
through the filter each day. For pools with high chlorine demand, the timer may
have to be set longer to generate enough chlorine.
If optional AQL-CHEM sensing is NOT used.
To find the optimum desired output
% setting, start at approximately 50%.
Test the chlorine level every few days and
adjust the setting up or down accordingly.
It
usually takes 2-3 adjustments to find
the ideal setting for your pool/spa and after that, it should only take minor, infre-
quent
adjustments.
Because the chlorine demand of the pool increases with tem-
perature, most people find they have to adjust the desired output up at the peak of
the summer and down during the colder periods.
NOTE: After the ideal setting has been found, you may need to raise the setting
when the pool water temperature increases significantly, when there is higher than
normal bather load or when your chlorinator cell ages.
You may need to lower the
setting when the pool water temperature decreases significantly or there are long
periods of inactivity.
