Converting Your Pool from a standard BAQUACIL® System to the BAQUACIL® CDX® System:
Perform any necessary filter maintenance
- Cartridge filters - Chemically clean the cartridge with Universal Filter Cleaner or replace the cartridge
- D.E. filters - Chemically clean the filter elements with Universal Filter Cleaner.
- Sand filters - Replace the sand in the filter.
Take a pool water sample to your authorized BAQUACIL® Dealer for complete analysis. (see BAQUACIL® CDX® Pool Care Guide for water testing tips.) If your dealer finds that your pool water contains metals, add Metal Control as follows: For every 2 ppm of metals present and for every 10,000 gallons of water, use 1 bottle (1 1/4 lb.). Allow the water to circulate for 8-12 continuous hours.
Add Swimming Pool Sanitizer and Algistat to the pool to achieve a 50 ppm level. See chart below for dosing instructions.
Add the start-up dose of Oxidizer in front of skimmer. See Start-Up Dosage chart below.
Add the start-up dose of CDX® product directly into skimmer. See Start-Up Dosage chart below.
