Hayward AquaRite + Owner's Manual page 3

The pH Upgrade Kit is an optional accessory to the Hayward AquaRite+ Chlorinator. The kit assesses the pH level of the pool's water and
automatically calculates and injects the necessary amount of acid needed to bring the body of water to ideal acidity levels. Once the pH
Upgrade Kit is installed, the optional ORP Upgrade Kit can then also be installed to measure the quality and/or the ability of the chlorine
present in the water to oxidize or burn up unwanted substances in the water and then automatically activate the TurboCell to produce
chlorine when the level is reducing.
Maintaining safe water pH levels is imperative to the longevity of the pool structure and mechanical equipment, as well as the physical
health of pool users. If the water is not balanced, bathers are at risk of experiencing forms of discomfort such as skin rashes and sore eyes.
Acidic or basic pool water also affects chlorine production efficiency and the elimination of algae and bacteria. It is recommended that the
pool water remains at pH levels between 7.2 - 7.8. This allows the Chlorinator to work effectively and avoids any corrosion or scale damage
to the pool/spa and associated equipment.
NOTE: Before installing this product as part of a salt water sanitisation system in a pool or spa using natural stone for coping or for immediately
adjacent patios/decking, a qualified stone installation specialist should be consulted regarding the appropriate type, installation, sealant (if any) and
maintenance of stone used around a saline pool with an electronic chlorine generator for your particular location and circumstances.
NOTE: The use of dry acid (sodium bisulfate) to adjust pool pH is discouraged especially in arid regions where pool water is subject to excessive
evaporation and is not commonly diluted with fresh water. Dry acid can cause a buildup of by-products that can damage your chlorinator cell.
