ALIZE Pure clear swimming pool water is a combination of two factors adequate filtration and proper water chemistry balance One without the other will not give the clean water you desire Your filter system is designed for continuous operation However this is not necessary for most swimming pools You can determine your filter operation schedule based on your pool size and usage Be sure to operate your filtration system long enough each day to obtain at least one complete turnover of your pool water To properly sanitize your pool maintain a free chlorine level of 1 to 3 ppm and a pH range of 7 2 to 7 6 Insufficient chlorine or an out of balance pH level will permit algae and bacteria to grow in your pool and make it difficult for your filter to properly clean the pool water NOTE For new concrete or gunite pools or where there is a large amount of plaster dust or debris start filter in FILTER position not BACKWASH to prevent clogging of underdrain laterals USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS Page 5 of 8 ISSM170T Rev B SPECIFICATIONS MODEL EFFECTIVE DESIGN MAXIMUM REQUIRED CLEARANCE MEDIA REQUIRED NO FILTRATION FLOW RATE WORKING SIDE ABOVE TYPE AMOUNT AREA PRESSURE SM1700T 0 45 0 55 mm SM1900T 0 45 0 55 mm 80 TABLE 1 Also known as No 20 Silica Sand Parts Diagram ES p 1E NO PartNo Description 2 ECX27081 Pressure Gauge 1 3 GMX600F Valve
