Basic Swimming Pool Chemistry 

Do you dream of having a nice, crystal clear swimming pool? Well you can easily have one, but you need to follow four simple steps and use the proper swimming pool chemicals.

The four things you need to do are:

* Keep the pool chemistry balanced!
* Keep algae out at all costs! Keep your pool sanitized!
* Keep your pH and total alkalinity (TA) properly adjusted!
* Keep calcium constant!

1.) Keep the Pool Chemistry Balanced!

Well balanced pool water is essential for swimming enjoyment, prolonging the life of your pool equipment and much more

Balancing the water is simply maintaining the proper amount of chemicals in your swimming pool. This can be as simple as doing the following:

a.) Keeping chlorine tablets or sticks, in your chlorine reservoir.
b.) Shock the pool regularly.
c.) Add any balancing chemicals as needed. If ever in doubt, simply have your water tested. The results will dictate what needs to be added.

2.) Prevent algae at all costs!

Why should you prevent algae at all costs? Algae is a group of microscopic organisms which start out in your pool virtually invisible to the naked eye. If left alone, algae will multiply and grow and pretty soon you will have a murky, cloudy water.

Algae can be very difficult to get rid of and cause innumberable problems with your pool equipment.

3.) Keep Your pH and Total Alkalinity (TA)

Properly adjusted pH is probably the most important thing to keep properly maintained.

The pH of the water is is very important. It can become unsafe to have pH too low or too high. Both high or low pH effects your pool and equipment.

4.) Keep Calcium Constant

Calcium is important both for the liner. Calcium keeps the liner flexible, if it gets too low, the liner can begin to get brittle so keeping your water balanced will help your liner last longer.

If you keep these four things in check, you should enjoy a clear, beautiful pool. The use of swimming pool chemicals is not difficult - if you understand the basics.
