The Keys to Keeping Pool Water Looking Great


Summer is fast approaching, and having a beautiful backyard for entertaining and summer fun is on the minds on pool owners everywhere. Having beautiful, inviting pool water is key to having a successful pool party, so here are some tips to keeping your pool water looking beautiful.

Keep debris from accumulating around your pool. You can stop debris from even getting into your pool in the first place by keeping your patio and other areas around the pool clean. Also, clean off pool supplies, like nets, before you put them into the pool if they're looking dusty. Have swimmers shower before getting into the pool so that they won't be bringing as many contaminants into the water. After a storm, clear off your patio of the extra foliage so that it doesn't get into your pool.

Rid your pool of "dead spots." If your water has poor circulation, you could experience "dead spots," which are areas of your pool that have such poor circulation that you can see cloudy water, algae growth, or other contamination accumulating in that area.

Make sure your water levels are right. If your water level is too low, then your skimmer can't skim contaminants from the pool's surface. If your water level is too high, then the skimmer can't get to the surface.

Use a "smart" pool cleaner. Robotic cleaners are programmed to clean your pool more effectively and can circulate water as they move. The new models are not only smarter but are more energy efficient than ever before. These pool cleaners do more cleaning in a less amount of time, so you can expect to see cleaner water fast.

Use a cover. This is one of the simplest ways to keep your pool water looking nice. There are lots of reasons to use a pool cover: safety, solar power, but the number one reason is to keep the leaves, sticks, dirt, and other contaminants out. You will find a wide variety of covers at your pool and spa supplies store.

Be perfectly balanced. Having perfect water chemistry is the number one way to keep your water looking great. If your pool water is looking cloudy, it's a sign! It means that it's time to find the weak spot in your chemical maintenance routine or reevaluate what kind of routine your pool needs. Your will most likely need a different routine when the seasons change, so if spring comes and you're still on winter's schedule, then your water will start to get cloudy looking.
