Tips on using swimming pool chemicals
Having the correct amount of swimming pool chemicals in the swimming pool water is the answer to a healthy pool. Algae growth will be minium and the water will look crystal clear and hence neither you or the pool will suffer.
Water is generally clear and clean during the winter in the swimming pool, even though very little has been done to it. Algae do not appear and I hardly ever see the pool turn green during the winter time. If algae do occur the growth is very slow, but doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use the chemicals keep using the swimming pool chemicals so that when the spring comes your pool is ready for use.
How many times a month do you need to you use the pool chemicals?
The pool chemicals should be used twice every month to deal with algae and dead bacteria. When you do the filtering process most of these waste materials would have been removed but some will still remain and this can cause skin and eye irritation.
Testing the swimming pool?
Use ph levels to test your pool, this measure the acidity in your pool. The balance of the ph levels need to be stable for Chlorine to work properly. After this the pool filtering system should keep the water of the swimming pool clean. You can also use the Alkalinity and Sanitiser to tests your swimming pools.
Some people have also asked me if there is a chemical that changes colour when someone pees in the pool. Unfortunately no, there is not. There are dyes to change colour in response to the pee but no chemicals.
After the chemicals have been applied in the pool cover the swimming pool with swimming pool covers , this will ensure the water stays clear and your pool is ready for use anytime.
