Pool Maintenance: Keeping your pool well maintained will prolong its life, prevent bacteria growth and delay needed repairs. Some things you can do are:
-
Test Pool Water for Sanitizer Level
Make certain alkalinity and pH are in balance. Unbalanced pools can affect water clarity, damage pool equipment, cause erosion and even alter water chemistry.
- Add Chlorine or Bromine
Sanitizing your pool is like sterilizing your pool. This kills bacteria, algae and any other living forms in the water. Almost all swimming pools in the United States are disinfected by chlorine or bromine in one form or another.
- Adjust pH and Alkalinity levels
Balancers can help maintain the proper pH and alkalinity levels necessary in a pool. This will get rid of cloudy or irritating water and save expensive equipment.
- Check Skimmer Basket
Clear debris from skimmer basket to help keep pool water circulating and fresh.
Average Costs: The total price (depending on materials) could run you somewhere between $18 and $30 grand (this does not include the extras like a filter system, chemicals even a pool cover). Even after you're done adding up those costs, you still have yearly costs for up-keep and opening the swimming pool.

Add Algaecide
Add a weekly dosage of algaecide to prevent and control algae. Good algaecide should kill algae without damaging or staining your pool.
Add Metal Out
Even the best maintained pools have tiny suspended particles that can escape the filtration system. Add a weekly dosage of Metal Out to eliminate metal particles.
Add Clarifier
Add a weekly dosage of clarifier to prevent cloudy water. Clarifiers are used to remove particles from the pool that are too small to be caught in the filter system. Clarifying agents will cause these particles to cling to each other making them larger, so they can be removed from your water through vacuuming or filtration.
