Strong Chlorine Odor

A strong chlorine odor indicates there is a high amount of chloramines (used chlorine) in the swimming pool. Test and adjust all chemicals in the pool and then superchlorinate using the Aqua Rite chlorinator following the instructions carefully.

Eye and Skin Irritation

Eye and skin irritation usually indicates an improper pH level. Test and adjust the pH to 7.2 – 7.6 as recommended in the owner's manual.

Slimy Feeling on the Pool Walls or Pool Cleaner

A slimy feeling on the pool walls or pool cleaner is an indicator of early algae growth. Brush the pool and immediately superchlorinate using the Aqua Rite chlorinator following the instructions in the owner's manual.
