Jolly gel. It’s Astonishing!

Frequently Asked Questions

NOTE: – Jolly gel is NOT SUITABLE for DE or paper cartridge filters.

Why has the Jolly gel cube not yet fully dissolved?

It may be . . .

1 – You have not run the pump continuously for 24 hours.

2 – The water temperature is low – if this is the case the cube will dissolve more slowly.

3 – Your filter needs to be backwashed and allows only low turnover of water.

4 – The filter media has not been changed in the last 5 years or more.

4 – You forgot to remove the cube from the little plastic bag . . . . . .

The Jolly gel cubes have dried out – is this a problem?

The cubes will sometimes dehydrate and harden over time, particularly so if they have been stored in high ambient temperatures.

A cube going hard is not a problem. Once immersed in water it will return to its original shape and size and will perform perfectly.

How many cubes should I use?

You only need to use one cube, placed in the pump basket (not in the skimmer).

One cube will clean, service and polish up to 60m³ of water for three whole weeks.

How often should I use Jolly gel?

Continuous use (one cube every 3 weeks) will ensure that the pool is always completely transparent and maximize the extended life of the filter and other pool equipment.

–

Remember that it is not necessary to use Jolly gel when the pool is closed for winter, so 2 packs a year are often sufficient for most private pools.

Can I put the cube in the skimmer basket?

It is not advisable to put Jolly gel in the skimmer basket.

The skimmer basket collects general debris (e.g. leaves, insects).

Jolly gel is a glutinous substance, so leaves and general debris will stick to it.

The recommendation is to place the cube only in the pump strainer basket.
