3. is insufficient to drain chlorinator A larger pump will be required to generate sufficient outlet flow Consult Arch 5 Now determine where the power source will come from for both the booster pump and solenoid These considerations will help determine the length and gauge of wire needed The last consideration for the site assessment is the fill tap water source and the type of pH control system to be used If Carbon Dioxide will be used for pH control it may be preferable to provide the inlet flow to the chlorinator from the fill water source Typically Carbon Dioxide pH control systems will raise the Total Alkalinity of the pool water to well over 100 ppm This TA level will increase the tendency for scale formation in the chlorinator Consequently it is recommended that the inlet flow be provided from the fill water source if the TA of the fill water is below 100 ppm The use of fill water to the chlorinator inlet will add water to the pool on a daily basis in relatively small amounts A typical indoor 375m pool will use approximately 75 litres of chlorinated solution from the Easiflo System per day A typical outdoors 375m pool will use approximately 227 litres of chlorinated solution from the Easiflo System per day The Easiflo 4 System also puts an additional 3 3m of water a day in the pool from the wash down system If you use this Installation method make sure that the pool has that amount of water being removed as to not cau
4. single pool installation can also utilise a venturi which employs the motive power of the pools own filtration pump However in this instance consultation with Arch Technical Services is necessary to advise on feasibility Multi pool installations as described below using the venturi and booster pump to evacuate the chlorine solution into the largest of the pools on site For additional smaller pools a conventional dosing pump can be used to take and inject chlorine solutions from the discharge tank of the feeder Ensure an adequately sized pump is employed Entry to the discharge tank can be gained by drilling an access hole close to the top of the tank ensuring the hole and subsequent suction line to the pump does not interfere with the discharge valve arm or float The dosing pump should be selected carefully realising that the chlorine solution produced is only around 1 5 of available chlorine Approximate sizing of pumps for different sizes of pools are as follows Up to 100ms 30 I h 100 200ms 501 h 200 300m 751 h Count 251 h for each additional 100m Instructions for Easiflo 4 Booster Pump Installation To simplify installation Please read this installation manual completely before going to the pool site Equipment needed to install Drill Cordless recommended Tube cutters or utility knife PVC pipe fittings as required Silicon thread sealant PVC Primer Cleaner
