POOL MAINTENANCE
Warning: If you do not adhere to the maintenance guidelines covered herein, your health might be at risk,
especially that of children. Pool water treatment is essential for the safety of the users. Using chemicals
inappropriately will cause property damage and personal injury.
NOTE: The pump is used to circulate the water and to filter small particles. In order to keep your pool water
clean and hygienic, you must also add chemicals.
1. It is recommended not to fill the pool with catchment water, drilling water, or drainage well water: these
waters generally contain polluted organic substances including nitrates and phosphates. Filling pools with
water from the public network is advised.
2. Always keep your pool clean and apply the correct pool chemicals. Unsanitary water is a serious health
hazard. It is recommended to use disinfectant, flocculant, acid or alkali chemicals to treat your pool.
3. Clean the PVC liner regularly with non-abrasive brushes or a pool vacuum cleaner.
4. Throughout the season, the water filtration system must run long enough each day to clean the entire
volume of water in the pool.
5. Check the filter cartridge (or sand in a sand filter) regularly and replace dirty cartridges (or sand).
6. Regularly check the screws, bolts and all the metal parts for rust. Replace if necessary.
7. If it rains, check that the water level is not higher than the specified level. If water exceeds the specified
levels, drain the pool to the specified level.
8. Do not use the pump when the pool is in use.
9. Cover the pool when not in use.
10. For pool water treatment, the pH value is very important.
ATTENTION: Do not leave the drained pool outside.
The following parameters ensure good quality water.
Parameters
Water clarity
Colour of the water
Turbidity in FNU/NTU
Nitrate concentration above that of fill water in mg/l
Total organic carbon (TOC) in mg/l
Redox potential against Ag/AgCI 3,5 m KCl in mV
pH value
Free active chlorine (without cyanuric acid) in mg/l
Free chlorine used in combination with cyanuric acid in mg/l
Cyanuric acid in mg/l
Combined chlorine in mg/l
ATTENTION: Do not use pump when pool is in use.
During the season of use of the swimming pool, the filtration system must be necessarily put into service
every day, enough for a long time to assure at least a complete renewal of the volume of water.
Repair
Check pool for any leaks from valves or seams, check the ground cloth for any evident water loss. Do not add
chemicals until this has been done.
NOTE: In the event of a leak, patch your pool using the Heavy-duty repair patch provided. Refer to the FAQs
for further information.
Dismantling
1. Unscrew the drain valve cap on the outside of the pool counter clockwise and remove.
2. Connect the adaptor to the hose and put the other end of the hose in the area where you are going to drain
your pool. (Check local regulations for drainage by-laws).
3. Screw control ring of the hose adaptor clockwise onto the drain valve. The drain valve will be open and
water will start to drain automatically.
ATTENTION: Water flow can be controlled with the control ring.
4. When draining is finished, unscrew the control ring to close the valve.
5. Disconnect the hose.
6. Screw the cap back onto the drain valve.
7. Air dry pool.
ATTENTION: Do not leave the drained pool outside.
Storage and Winterization
1. Please remove all the accessories and spare parts of the pool and store them clean and dry.
2. Once pool is completely dry, sprinkle with talcum powder to prevent pool from sticking together, fold pool
carefully. If pool is not completely dry, mold may result and will damage the pool liner.
3. Store liner and accessories in a dry place with a moderate temperature between 5ºC / 41ºF and 38ºC /
100ºF.
4. During the rainy season, pool and accessories should be stored as per above instructions also.
5. Improper draining of the pool might cause serious personal injury and/or damage to personal property.
6. We strongly recommend the pool is disassembled during the off season (winter months). Store in a dry
location out of children's reach

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a suitable base for the Frame Set pool?
Almost any completely flat, solid, level surface can be used. Do not use sand as a leveling material as it is
prone to shifting under the pool. The ground should be dug out until it is perfectly level. Do not set up on
driveways, decks, platforms, gravel or asphalt. The ground should be firm enough to withstand the weight
and pressure of the water: mud, sand, soft / loose soil or tar are not suitable. A concrete base can be used
but care should be taken not to drag the pool across the surface as abrasions could tear the liner. If the pool
is to be set up on a lawn, it is recommended that the grass is removed from where the pool will sit as it will
die and may cause odors / slime. Certain types of hardy grass can grow through the liner as can aggressive
bushes / plants by the side of the pool. Ensure adjacent vegetation is cut back where necessary. Use of a
ground cloth assists in protecting the base of the pool.
2. How will I know if my pool is set up on unleveled ground?
If your pool appears to be bulging on one side it is not set up on level ground. It is important that you
empty your pool and move the pool to a level site. If the pool is not on level ground it will place undue stress
on the seams and could result in the seams bursting which will cause flooding, property damage and
potentially personal injury or death.
Fill your pool following the instructions in the owner's manual carefully. This will ensure that you do not
waste water and the pool can be moved easily so that the ground can be leveled at an appropriate time and
not after you have completely filled it with water.
3. Can I have my pool filled by a water service?
We recommend using a garden hose under low pressure for filling your pool. If it is necessary to use a
Values
water delivery service, it is best to fill the pool with one inch of water by hose and smooth wrinkles first. Use a
water service that is able to regulate the flow of water to prevent damage. Ensure you stop at each step as
clear view of the pool bottom
noted in the instruction manual to ensure your pool is level. Bestway will not be held responsible for pools
damaged or weakened by water delivery services.
no colour should be observed
4. What is the maximum fill height of the pool?
max. 1,5 (preferably less than 0,5)
Fill pool until water capacity is 90% up to the bottom of the top rail of the pool. Never attempt to fill your
max. 20 pool beyond the base of the rail. We recommend leaving extra room to account for water displacement when
occupants are inside the pool. You may have to top up the water during the season which has been lost
max. 4,0
through evaporation or normal use.
min. 650
5. My pool is leaking, what do I do to fix it?
The pool does not need to be emptied to fix any holes. Self-adhesive underwater repair patches can be
6,8 to 7,6
purchased at your local pool / hardware store. For external use, use the repair patch provided. For internal
holes, clean the hole on the inside of the pool to wipe off any oils and algae. Cut a circle large enough to
0,3 to 1,5
cover the hole and apply the patch securely onto the side in the water. Cut a second patch and apply to the
1,0 to 3,0
outside of the pool for extra strength. If the hole is in the base of the pool use one patch only and weigh it
down with a heavy object while it bonds. If you have patched the pool when it is empty we recommend you
max. 100
leave it at least 12 hours before filling.
max. 0,5 (preferably close to 0,0 mg/l)
6. Where can I buy filter cartridges and how often should I change them?
Filter cartridges to fit your filter pump should be available from the store where you purchased your pool.
If not, most mass retailers sell filter cartridges as an accessory. If you are unable to obtain replacements
please call our toll-free number and we will assist you in finding a source local to you. The cartridges should
be changed every 2 weeks dependent upon use of the pool. Check the filter on a weekly basis and clean by
hosing down any debris and particles. Note: Ensure your pump is disconnected from the electrical supply
before checking the filter cartridge.You can also visit our website www.bestway-service.com for cartridge
purchase.
7. How many times a year should I change the water?
This is dependant on the amount of use the pool receives, and the attention paid to covering the pool and
keeping chemicals properly balanced. If maintained correctly the water should last a full summer season.
Please contact your local pool chemical supplier for detailed information regarding chemicals, they will be
able to advise you how to best maintain the cleanliness of your water.
8. Do I need to take my pool down for the winter?
Yes, Above-ground pools may collapse under the weight of ice and snow and the PVC walls will be
damaged. We recommend taking the pool down when temperatures fall below 8ºC / 45ºF. The pool should be
stored indoors in a moderate temperature between 5ºC / 41ºF and 38ºC / 100ºF. Please store away from
chemicals and rodents and out of the reach of children.
9. My pool is fading – why is that?
Excessive use of chemicals can cause the color of the inside of the liner to fade; this is similar to a
swimsuit fading over time from repeated contact with chlorinated water.
10. How many years will the pool last?
There is no set time limit for the pool to last; following the instructions in the owner's manual and with
proper care, maintenance and storage you can considerably increase the life of your pool. Improper set-up,
use or care can result in failure of the pool.
11. Do you recommend the use of a filter pump with a Bestway pool?
Absolutely! We strongly recommend you use a filter pump which will maintain the cleanliness of the water.
12. Which are the most important functions of my filter pump?
The most important function of a filter pump is the elimination of every sort of impurity from the water with
the aid of a filter cartridge and chemical products for its sterilization.
