Skypebble Start-Up Procedure and Recommended Pool Water Treatment Guide

Sodium Bi-Carbonate rinse. (To be carried out immediately after Acid Wash and prior to filling pool with water)

Note : Use 3 kg’s of sodium bi-carbonate per 10,000 Ltrs of pool water, i.e. 15 kg’s of sodium bi-carbonate per 50,000 Ltrs of pool water.

1. Ensure all acid wash solution is pumped out of the pool & pool is washed down with clean water.
2. Commence filling pool from deep end.
3. When pool has approximately 200mm of water covering the main drain, add the required amount of sodium bi-carbonate, (as per above mix ratio) to this water and mix well.
4. Using this solution, in a watering can, pour around pool walls and floor ensuring all Skypebble interior is covered.
5. Do not wash finished surface after rinse, leave rinse solution in pool.
6. Continue to fill pool from deep end, be sure not to turn hose off until filling is completed.

It is recommended to chemically balance your pool or spa once it has finished filling.

The recommended balance range is as follows,

• pH 7.6 – 7.8
• Total Alkalinity of 200ppm.
• Total Hardness 150 – 200ppm.
• Salt – Do not add salt for 6 weeks, run pool on liquid chlorine for this time.

Note : If Acid is to be added, please use in small quantities and dilute in water and add to deep end. All pools and spas vary in size. The chemicals required to achieve the recommended balance range will vary.

The final and ongoing finish of the pool interior can depend on a number of variables in which Skypebble has no control and does not guarantee such as -:
1. Preparation of pool shell, prior to application of Skypebble.
2. Cement Used. ( Brand, Quality, Shelf Life, etc )
3. Yield ratio of cement to Skypebble and Skypebble liquid tint.
4. The use of pebble and coloured oxides other than Skypebble products.
