Check chlorine and replace the FROG Pac
Check before you act. This one is driven by what you measure, not by the date. Check your free chlorine reading against the FROG Pac — turn the dial up or swap in a fresh FROG Pac to hold 0.5-1.0 ppm free chlorine
Keep free chlorine at 0.5-1.0 ppm The FROG Pac (part 01-03-5613) is the chlorine half of the system. There is no fixed replacement date — you replace it when the tablets run low, judged by your chlorine reading, not the calendar. ## What to do 1. Test free chlorine (see the water-test task). 2. King Technology's target band is 0.5-1.0 ppm. If you are drifting below it, turn the FROG dial up a setting; if the Pac is spent, swap in a fresh one. 3. Re-test after a day to confirm the new setting holds the band. Checking weekly is our prompt cadence; the 0.5-1.0 ppm target is the manufacturer's.
