the pool shall be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), where distances are by measuring the shortest path the supply cord of an appliance
connected to the receptacle would follow, without piercing a floor, wall, ceiling, doorway with hinged or sliding door, window opening, or other effective permanent
barrier, to the inside wall of the pool.
Circulation Systems
1. Follow written instructions regarding positioning of all equipment connected to the circulation systems and operating the components.

Chemicals
For safety's sake, ensure the deepest part of the pool is always visible. The user must properly maintain pool water clarity at all times. Check the pH
and chlorine levels periodically, and make sure they are within the recommended limits. Additional water treatment chemicals might be needed from
time to time. Have the water sample tested by a local pool supply store to determine if additional chemicals are needed. It is recommended to turn
on the pump for 4-6 hours daily to keep pool water clean. Clean and replace filter cartridge frequently. Replace only with genuine BLUE WAVE
Brand filter cartridges. Refer to the Filter Pump manual for additional water care information.
