Chemistry (Water Balance)

To view the current water balance, tap Water Balance on the Chemistry
Summary dialog box. The Water Balance Settings screen is displayed.
Water Balance Summary
The Water Balance Setting screen displays the current water balance and salt
levels. The Calcium Hardness, Alkalinity and Cyanuric Acid values can also be
adjusted based on manual water tests to allow the water balance number to be
calculated. Note: A Saturation Index value of 0 indicates the water is chemically in
balance. If the Index is a minus (-) value, corrosive tendencies are indicated. If the
Index is a plus (+) value, scale-forming tendencies are indicated. A Saturation Index
value between +0.5 to -0.5 is considered satisfactory in a swimming pool.
