To ensure your pool lasts for a longer time, it needs to be maintained in a safe manner. This is necessary for safety and to avoid any negative impact on your health from chemical levels or bacteria growth. Although professional assistance is available through outsourcing agencies that specialize in these services, it's best to keep it simple with a list of dos and don'ts.

The Do's

A good quality test kit can be purchased that can test pH (which is a measure the activity of hydrogen ion H+). Water with a pH of 7 or more is considered acidic, while water with a pH of 7 or more is considered basic. (), total alkalinity and calcium hardness, as well as the sanitizer level. A cyan uric acid test is included in the purchase of this product. It will tell you how many products are required to balance the water. This is the most important requirement for pool maintenance.

* Remove all debris, pool toys and other out-of-place elements on a daily basis, clean the strainer baskets and inspect the pump parts.

To prevent algae growth, vacuum the pool on a weekly basis. Pool maintenance is dependent on chemical balance. Pool water testing is necessary if there are any redness, burning, or other symptoms.

* Check for calcium buildup if you have a heater.

The Do's and Don'ts

* Do not mix different types or grades of chlorine

* Avoid allowing any petroleum products or acids in direct contact with chlorine.

* Don't drain the pool without following the instructions. Otherwise, the structure of the pool might crack due to hydrostatic pressure or ground pressure outside.

* Avoid putting in all the shock products at once to prevent damage to the gel-coat.

* Avoid using abrasive cleaners, steelwool, metal scrapers, or brushes to remove the "bathtub" rings on the pool walls or tiles. These can be caused by body oils and suntan lotions or airborne contaminants. Swimming pool tile cleaners or non-abrasive commercial tile cleaners or vinyl cleaners will easily get rid of them. The gel coat may be permanently damaged by abrasive cleaners.

* Don't build your pool in an area where there are many trees or plants. Your pool may not be the problem. There may be problems with things that are near or around your pool. Trees and plants are two examples. They can also cause damage to filters and other equipment in the pool by shedding their leaves.
