Record readings and chemical doses
Test records the water. Treat records what you add.
Test
Enter each reading with the sliders — chlorine, pH, and the rest. Salt appears at saltwater pools. PoolHelm compares each reading to this pool’s own target ranges, so the same chlorine number can read green at one house and amber at the next.
Treat
PoolHelm recommends how much of each chemical to add. Pick where each one came from:
- From our truck — company stock.
- From the customer’s supply — the customer’s own chemicals.
Add the recommended doses to move forward. Leave the phase and come back — on any device — and your doses are still there.
The Treat phase has no checklist
What you add comes from your readings and the office’s dosing formulas. Readings all in range means nothing to add — that’s the right answer.
If Treat has nothing to recommend, it says so. That usually means the office hasn’t switched on the dosing formulas. Record what you added and tell them.
Check first. There's no default — you have to pick one. Truck chemicals can end up on the customer's invoice; the customer's own never do. Get it wrong and you bill someone for their own bucket of chlorine.
