Water Balance
The water must be balanced manually BEFORE the device is started up.
The following table summarises the ideal chemical levels recommended by Hayward. Your water should be checked regularly to maintain
these ideal levels in order to minimise surface corrosion, scaling or deterioration and to ensure maximum performance from your AquaRite+
Chlorinator.
CHEMICAL IDEAL LEVELS
Salt 2.7 to 3.4 g/L
(2700 ppm - 3400 ppm)
Free Chlorine 1.0 to 3.0 ppm
pH 7.2 to 7.8
Cyanuric Acid
(Stabiliser)
30 to 50 ppm max.
(Add stabiliser only if necessary)
0 ppm in indoor pool
Total Alkalinity 80 to 120 ppm
Calcium Hardness 200 to 400 ppm
Metals 0 ppm
Saturation Index -0.2 to 0.2 (0 best)
Saturaon Index
The saturation index (Si) relates to the calcium and alkalinity in the water and is an indicator of the pool water “balance”. Your water is
properly balanced if the Si is 0 ± 0.2. If the Si is below -
0.2, the water is corrosive and plaster pool walls will be dissolved into the water.
If the Si is above +0.2, scaling and staining will occur. Use the chart below to determine the saturation index.
Si = pH + Ti + Ci + Ai - TDS

Use: Measure the pH of the pool water, the temperature, water hardness, total alkalinity and total
dissolved solids. Use the table above to determine Ti, Ci, Ai and TDS from your measurements. Insert
your values of pH, Ti, Ci, Ai and TDS into the formula shown above. If the Si is equal to 0.2 or more,
stains may appear. If the Si is equal to -0.2 or less, corrosion or deterioration may occur.
