Maintaining a clean, safe and attractive swimming pool depends on more than just adding chemicals.
Pool care activities fall into three broad categories:
- Maintaining physical cleanliness of the pool
- Attending to water quality
- Controlling bacteria, algae and organic pollution
All of these should be done as an established routine to prevent problems arising. Pool care should be seen as a preventative measure and not something that is done only when visible changes in the pool occur.
A good understanding of pools and the water they contain explains why the processes are necessary and how important efficient pool equipment is in keeping a pool clear, clean and healthy.
