·	Add stabilizer after the pool has been cleaned and the filter has been backwashed.

·	Add the stabilizer slowly into the skimmer in small increments with the pump running.

·	Run the pump continuously for at least 4 days.

·	Step One: Add Sustain Summer Shield® Chlorine Extender. Simply pour the Shield Extender into the skimmer or into the water around the sides of the pool.

·

Step Two: Fill the skimmer dispenser with blue Sustain® 3-Inch Chlorinating Tablets and place the dispenser in the skimmer basket, open end up. (Never mix blue Sustain® Tablets with white chlorinating tablets.) The skimmer dispenser comes with an adjustable lid to regulate chlorine delivery. Adjust the lid opening to increase or decrease chlorine delivery to maintain 1-3 ppm FAC. For in-ground pools, start with the lid off, and use it later, if necessary. For above-ground pools, start with the lid fully open and adjust as needed.

·	Step Three: Add Sustain® Shield Energizer Tablets to the skimmer basket, (one cup for every 5,000 gallons of water). Continue to circulate the water for at least 5 hours.

ü	Fill the 3” Chlorinating Tablet dispenser and place it in the skimmer basket, open end up. Refill dispenser once per week or as needed to maintain an 1-3 ppm Chlorine Level.

ü	Add 1 cup of Energizer Tablets for every 5000 gallons of pool water.

ü	Test pool water with Chlorine test strips weekly.

ü	If there are any problems, we ask our customers to bring in a water sample. We need approximately 1 cup of pool water to perform a computerized water analysis.
