Ahh…summer. Blue skies and warm sun make swimming pool water even more alluring. Summertime is all about enjoying the sunshine and cooling off, but to keep your pool crystal clear and inviting, regular maintenance is key. Staying on top of pool care not only extends the life of your pool, but also create a safe and enjoyable environment for your family and friends.
During summer months, the combination of increased pool usage and sun exposure affects water chemistry and pool water balance. Pool pH control and being able to successfully balance total alkalinity is especially important during the summer. Our next series of articles will offer some tips and tricks to assist you with summer pool maintenance. Let’s dive in and make sure your pool is always ready for a refreshing dip!
Daily Swimming Pool Maintenance Tasks
- Start each day by skimming the surface of your pool to remove any leaves, bugs, or other debris that may have accumulated overnight. This will not only keep your pool looking cleaner but also prevent clogs in your filter system.
- Next, it’s time to check the pool’s chlorine and pH levels. These levels are essential for maintaining pool water balance and keeping the pool safe for swimming. Use a pool testing kit to ensure your levels are within the recommended range.
- Don’t forget to give your pool a quick brush to prevent algae buildup on the walls and floor. Regular brushing will help maintain the cleanliness of your pool and reduce the need for more intensive cleaning later on.
Our next article will cover weekly pool maintenance tips for summer.
