Tips on Keeping Your Pool Water Clean
When you have a pool you want to keep the water
as clean as you possibly can. In order to do
this there are things that you must do on a
weekly and bi-weekly basis. Following this
schedule will help you keep your water crystal
clear and sparkling throughout the entire
swimming season. If it is an above ground pool
and you are not going to be using for a few days
you could always put the cover over it to keep
out debris so there is less skimming to do but
you should still do your cleaning on schedule.

Add pool shock, which will disinfect the water
along with breaking down organic matter. You can
use either non-chlorinated or chlorine-based
products but you need to remember to add
whichever one you choose in the proper ratio to
the total water volume of your pool. Just follow
the instructions on the label or if you are still
not sure how to do it consult with a pool
maintenance provider to get the correct ratio.
If there are excessively high temperatures or
there has been a rainstorm you may need to add
additional pool shock to the water.

Bi-weekly cleaning Use a skimming tool to
remove any insects, leaves, or any other items
that are floating on the waters surface.
Although this is listed as bi-weekly some prefer
to do it on a daily basis so they are not
swimming with leaves and dead insects. Use
test strips for checking and maintaining the
levels of pool chemicals in the water. The pH of
the water should measure between seven point four
and seven point six. If you are using chlorine
it should measure between one to three parts per
million. You need to make sure that this balance
is correct because if it is too strong your
swimwear could be bleached along with your eyes
stinging. If it is too weak you will have
uncontrolled bacteria and algae growth. If it is
too high the best strategy is to wait a couple of
days for the water to reach the recommended level
or add more if it is too low.

tasks.
