Maintenance
Enjoying your new pool: choose the right maintenance!
Relaxing and splashing in your pool will remain a healthy and enjoyable moment as long as your pool is maintained on a regular basis. Indoor and outdoor swimming pools and ponds require a regular maintenance and the frequency and type of maintenance will vary according to the size of the pool.
For crystal clear pool water, you should keep up to a good water treatment which can be categorised in three levels: High, Standard & Low.
Vacuum Sweeping
In addition to the sanitation maintenance for a crystal clear water, to keep a clean pool, you should also manually brush and vacuum sweep the pool’s walls & floors to remove all external matters from the pool.
The frequency of vacuum sweeping can also be categorised in three levels: High, Standard & Low. This will directly depend on the size of the pool and its surrounding environment such as dust, surrounding trees, etc. More the pool is large or is surrounded by trees; more regular cleaning will be required. The frequency of manual vacuum cleaning can be reduced by adding an automatic vacuum sweeper in the pool.
HIGH
Daily manual input of chemicals
Such pools do not have any automatic sanitation to the water. Thus the sanitation must be monitored manually on a daily basis.
STANDARD
Weekly manual input of chemicals
Such pools normally have an automatic dosing system such as an inline chemical feeder or chemical dosing pump with a chemical tank. The chemical feeder or tank must be replenished on a weekly basis depending on the size of the pool.
LOW
Salt Chlorinated
Such pools normally have an automatic salt water chlorinator. With the addition of salt – sodium chloride – to the pool water, the chlorinator will keep the chlorine of the water at its required level. The use of salt water chlorinator is for salty pool waters.
The above maintenance levels are directly related to the pool location, pool surroundings and prevailing weather conditions.Also the main rules for using pools must be respected, such as:
a. Shower before entering poolb. Do not pollute water
