So get started!
Step 1: Start cleaning your pool.
The first thing you should do is clean the pool as soon as possible. The sooner you start, the better the result. For that, we suggest that you call a professional and he will hook up your filter for the process to begin immediately. Typically this fish tank will take about 4 hours to be cleaned and placed back in service, but a professional can cut it down to about one hour.
Step 2: Decide on what type of chemicals are needed for the job.
A variety of products are needed for cleaning a swimming pool. As you already know, the first thing to do is start cleaning your pool. After that, you need to decide on what type of chemicals are needed for the job. That means that you have to decide on the pH level, chlorine level and alkalinity of your water.
Step 3: Test your pool after a week of cleaning it.
After a week has passed, test your water again with pH-testers and measuring cups. This way, you can see what kind of chemicals are needed in order to keep the pH levels between 7.2 and 7.8 or if more chlorine is needed because it’s too soft or if there’s too much algae in your pool (you’ll be able to identify that later in this article).
Step 4: Use the right amount of chemicals.
When you’re using your chemicals, make sure that you use the right amount. It’s easy to accidentally use too much or too little of it. A good rule of thumb is to use a smaller portion than recommended on the package. For example, if it says that you should pour 3 lbs in your pool, start with 2 lbs and see if this is enough for your pool or if you need to add more.
Step 5: Cleaning the filter regularly will help keep your water crystal clear.
A good way to keep your pool clean is by using a filter on your system. That means that every time that you go to clean your pool, you should turn on this piece of equipment for a minute or two. Doing this will make sure that the filter gets rid of debris and the water is cleared as soon as it leaves the filter. This way, your water stays free of impurities and also algae.
Step 6: Add back water to prevent an overflow.
An overflow can happen when you change the system’s temperature too fast or if hot temperatures hit more than expected in an overnight period. In order to prevent this from happening, it’s a good idea to add a bit of water back every couple of hours.
Step 7: Keep your water clean by using proper cleaning techniques.
Make sure that you use proper pool cleaning techniques by following the steps in this article. For example, always empty out your pump basket and change your filter at least once per month. Also, check the stabilizer level often and keep it between 30 and 60 ppm.
Step 8: Algae has been the major reason for swimming pools turning green.
Algae has always been a problem in swimming pools. For that reason, it’s important to eliminate this pesky green stuff from your pool. This can be done by using a chemical called algaecide.
Keeping your pool clean is the best way to make sure that you have enough free time to enjoy this favourite activity or treat yourself and your family on a beautiful sunny day. You will also be able to keep the water crystal clear and serve as an environment for you and your family to enjoy in the comforts of home – without all the extra hassle associated with going outside each day.
