Most of Families would love to have a swimming pool in their Garden in the summer, but few want to deal with the protection that comes with having one. It doesn't have to be that hard, though. Maintaining your pool is easiest when your chemical treatment program and filtration system work together. You will find various aspects of pool care and safety, along with information on how to best protect your swimming pool.

Tips of swimming pool care: -

?Clean your pool on a usual basis, about every 15 days, to get rid of water-soluble bather waste.

?Regularly check the pressure gauge on your pump. Few pumps are operating at an optimal level when the pressure reading is below 20 psi, but check your pump instructions for specifics.

?Wash your pool with a stabilized chlorine product to provide safety against bacteria. These generally come in stick or tablet form and are fed into a division container near the pump and filter system.

?Make use of algae preventive or inhibitor to help keep the more than 15,000 kinds of algae from ever getting started. This liquid product is just poured into the water near the skimmer intake so that the pump system can distribute it to all areas of the pool.

?Find a pool professional who has a water test facility and that offers computer analysis of samples you bring in.

?Every day you have to check your skimmer baskets. Get rid of any debris that has accumulated in them. Removing this debris will keep the pressure on the pump at a good level. Make sure you check the basket on the pump, just remember to turn the pump off before you do. Leaves and other large pieces of debris can quickly build up in this basket and hurt your pump抯 performance.

?Make sure you are running your pump for six or more hours every day. Just because no one is in the pool doesn抰 mean you don抰 need to turn it on.

?Maintain a stable amount of chlorine in the pool by using a floater with chlorine pucks in it. Check the floater on a usual basis to make sure they haven抰 dissolved. Once they have, add more.

?Usually skimmer removes a most of debris for you, but by no means should it be doing all of the work. You have to remove any debris that may be floating on the surface with a skimmer pole. This is mainly after a storm when the wind may have blown a large amount of leaves and other debris into the pool. It is also compulsory to do some weekly cleaning.
