Tips on cleaning the swimming pool water
| February 8th, 2010Maintaining the right amount of swimming pool chemicals in your water is the answer to a healthy swimming pool. Algae growth will be minium and the water not turn green and will look clean and clear.
During the winter season water tends to stay clear with very little help in your swimming pools. Algae do not appear and I hardly ever see the pool turn green during the winter time. If algae do occur the growth is very slow, but doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use the chemicals keep using the swimming pool chemicals so that when the spring comes your pool is ready for use.
How many times a month do you need to you use the pool chemicals?
Use the pool chemicals two times every month to deal with algae and dead bacteria. When you do the filtering process most of these waste materials would have been removed but some will still remain and this can cause skin and eye irritation.
How do I test my swimming pool?
Use ph levels to test your pool, this measure the acidity in your pool. The balance of the ph levels need to be stable for Chlorine to work properly. After this the pool filtering system should keep the water of the swimming pool clean. Sanitiser and Alkalinity can also be used to test your swimming pools.
Few people asked me questions on is there a chemical that changes colour of the water if someone urinates in the pool. Unfortunately no, there is not. Though there are dyes to change the colour of the water.
After the chemicals have been applied in the pool cover the swimming pool with swimming pool covers , this will ensure the water stays clear and your pool is ready for use anytime.
