Swimming Pool Tips

 

Correct storage of vacuum head: You need not replace the head of your vacuum frequently by storing it properly. You should store it out of the sun in upside down position and away from any chlorine. It will not damage the brushes on its bottom

Use solar cover with pool heater: You can keep the debris and heat of the sun out and maintain the heat of your pool by using solar covers. During cool summer nights, you can maintain the temperature of the pool to the desired level by using covers after using a pool heater and switching it off at the desired level.

Increase alkalinity of the pool with baking soda: In order to increase the alkalinity of the pool water, you can use baking soda instead of any other kind of alkalinity as it is an equally effective and really cheaper option.

Close above ground pool yourself: You can save nearly $250 by closing your above ground pool yourself. Along with closing your pool properly by using covers you can also preserve some of its components properly to use them in next season like pump, filter and drain plugs etc.

Keep the pool cover clean during winters: You should use a pool cover pump throughout the winter to keep it clear of the water and any kind of dust and debris.

Less use of a filter in the mild season: In order to keep pool water moving and clean of algae you have to run its filter 10-12 hours in the peak summer season but in the mild season you can use it for less time.

Buy pool chemicals in bulk in advance: You can avail the benefit of the discounts offered by the pool stores at the beginning of the season, to attract new customers, by buying them in bulk in the early season.

Run pool pump at night: It will lower your electricity consumption bills. During weekdays 7:00 am to 7:00 pm is the peak time for almost all the electricity companies. By running the pump in off-peak hours you are also saving the environment.

Shock swimming pool weekly: It will help in keeping your pool crystal clear throughout the season. While shocking your pool you will have to test its water regularly which will help in keeping your pool in perfect condition throughout the season.

Use a robotic pool cleaner: It will clean your entire pool faster than you even without using electricity. They climb up the stairs and walls as well as around the pool on their own to collect debris in their filter bags made of fine mesh.

Check the level of chlorine stabilizer: This chemical will protect the chlorine level in the pool water from being eaten up by sun rays. The chlorine in your pool remains un-stabilized when added in the form of tablets or shock. It can be stabilized by adding chlorine stabilizer in pool water.
