Water Chemistry As with any pool, it is important that you maintain chemical makeup of the pool water. The table on page 2 summarizes the levels that are recommended by the National Spa and Pool Institute (NSPI). The only special requirement for the Aqua Trol is the salt level and stabilizer.

It is important to use only sodium chloride (NaCl) that is 99% pure. This is common to GFCI receptacl food quality or water softener salt available in 40-80 lb. bags at your local Hayward/ Goldline dealer.
