BioGuard Mineral Springs

Mineral Springs System

• Almost "hands-off," and takes only a few minutes a week to maintain.
• Perfect for frequent travelers or vacation-takers.

OVERVIEW

Essential elements pass through the Mineral Springs cell to produce sanitizer. The minerals are converted into free chlorine that kills bacteria and algae in the pool. The cell, along with the flow detector, are plumbed into the pool return line piping. The flow switch/detector informs the controller that water is flowing and that the generation process can start. The temperature and mineral level sensors keep the Mineral Springs controller calibrated regardless of pool temperature.

SPECIFICS

The Mineral Springs system utilizes easy-to-apply minerals and an automatic device to produce a chlorine sanitizer:

Beginnings

Beginnings

• Adds BioGuard’s proprietary blend of elements and stable minerals to water, creating a total mineral bathing environment.
• Usage requires minerals to be present in pool water. Apply one bag per 1,000 gallons of pool water at start-up or as needed to obtain proper mineral levels.

Renewal

Renewal

• Replenishes lost mineral levels and rejuvenates the Mineral Springs® system. Renewal® contains pH balancers and adjusters to offset pH drift including chelants and scale inhibitors. This helps prolong the life span of the Mineral Springs electrolytic cell. Renewal also contains a filter aid and helps in maintaining crystal clear water.
  
• Apply one bag per 20,000 gallons weekly to replenish mineral levels.
