The maintenance of proper water balance is the single most important factor to 
maximize the life and appearance of the liner as well as ensuring clean, healthy, safe
water. Proper technique is important for water testing. See your pool professional for
chemical, test kits and testing procedures. Be sure to read and follow the written
instructions from the chemical manufacturer.
1. Never let chlorine come into contact with the liner before the chlorine has fully dissolved.

Granular or tableted chlorine is dissolved first into a bucket of water. Likewise, liquid 
chlorine, if poured into various locations around the pool, must be immediately mixed 
thoroughly with pool water.

2. Never mix chemicals together, rather add chemicals to pool water separately and circulate 

throughout pool before adding additional chemicals.

3. An Intex pool skimmer and an Intex pool vacuum are available to assist in maintaining 

clean pool water. See your pool dealer for these pool accessories.

4. Do not use pressure washer to clean the pool.
