Pool MaintenanceTips for DIYers





The secret of clean water in the pool is its regular maintenance. Following some simple tips from pool maintenance Plano TX technicians and using quality solutions for pool maintenance, you can fully enjoy crystal clear water every time you take a swim.
1. Pool cleaning - It is recommended to clean the pool once a week, during the peak season.
2. Use disinfectants - The most common disinfectant for swimming pools is chlorine, due to its efficiency in destroying bacteria and organic impurities that cannot be filtered. Chlorine`s efficiency reaches the peak when the pH of the water is between 7-7.4. The disadvantage of using chlorine is its strong smell that persists around the pool. Alternatively, you can use active bromine or oxygen, which also fight against bacteria and algae, keeping the water clean.

3. Efficient water treatment - In the summer, you should check the water's pH. It must be between 7 and 7.5. The water treatment should be performed every two days or at least weekly if you have not opted for an automatic water treatment system. Checking and maintaining the PH in the parameters is very important, as the PH has no replacement.
4. Maintaining the water temperature - To increase the comfort, it is recommended to install an electric heater, a heat exchanger or an air-water heat pump.
5. Make sure that the pool maintenance is also performed in winter: apply a shock chemical treatment, lower the pool water 10 cm below the suction nozzles, install ice breakers and a tarp.
