The following parameters and frequencies are required for proper record-keeping procedures.
Parameter | Sampling or Recording Frequency | Notes |
Sanitizer residual & pH | As needed to maintain minimum residual, but not less than 3 times per day | Influenced by bather load |
Total alkalinity | Once per week | |
Calcium hardness | Once per week | |
Cyanuric acid | Once per week | |
Water Temperature | Daily | |
Filter influent/effluent pressure | Daily | Determines need for filter backwash |
Recirculation rate | Daily | |
Filter backwash | As necessary | As indicated by pressure drop across filter |
Bather load | Daily | |
Injury or accident | As necessary (See Section 7(B)(4) ) | Fecal, vomiting, and bleeding accidents must be recorded |
Chemical addition | As necessary |
