Learn the Basics of Pool Maintenance

Posted on May 30, 2023

Understanding the basics of pool maintenance is vital for keeping your pool clean, safe, and inviting. Familiarize yourself with tasks such as regular skimming to remove debris, proper water balance, and routine filter cleaning. Educate yourself on essential pool chemicals, their usage, and how to maintain appropriate sanitizer levels. By mastering these fundamental maintenance tasks, you’ll ensure that your pool water remains crystal clear and inviting for swimming.

Establish a Pool Cleaning Routine

Consistency is key when it comes to pool cleaning. Set up a regular cleaning routine that includes vacuuming the pool floor, brushing the walls, and skimming the surface for debris. Create a schedule that aligns with your pool usage and the surrounding environment. By dedicating time to proper cleaning, you’ll enjoy a pristine pool that’s always ready for a refreshing swim. If interested in an automatic pool cleaner, you can check out various models at any one of our 5 Customer Care Locations.

Embrace Proper Water Chemistry

Maintaining proper water chemistry is crucial for the longevity of your pool and the health of swimmers. Understanding how pH, chlorine, alkalinity and calcium hardness affect water balance will help you prevent issues like algae growth and equipment damage. On a regular basis, we suggest consulting with a pool professional and having your pool water tested at one of our 5 Customer Care Locations to ensure optimal water chemistry for a safe and comfortable swimming experience.

Familiarize Yourself with Pool Safety Measures

Safety should be a top priority for any pool owner, especially if there are children or pets around. Familiarize yourself with essential pool safety measures, such as installing a pool fence or gate, having life-saving equipment (e.g., lifebuoy, reaching pole) readily accessible, and enforcing pool rules. Educate family members and guests about pool safety guidelines, including the importance of supervision, swim lessons, and the potential hazards of diving. By promoting a safe pool environment, you’ll provide peace of mind and ensure everyone’s well-being.

Invest in Pool Accessories and Maintenance Tools

Equipping yourself with the right pool accessories and maintenance tools can simplify your pool ownership experience. Consider investing in items offered at Pools of Fun such as a skimmer net, pool brush, automatic pool cleaner, and pool test kit. These tools will make routine maintenance tasks more efficient, saving you time and effort while keeping your pool in top shape.
