When it comes to swimming pool maintenance, we want to ensure that our clients have the least amount of responsibility as possible and are able to enjoy their ideal swimming pool as much as possible! Here we discuss some of the truths and myths to what it takes to maintain a perfect pool.
People think that if they have a salt system that they do not necessarily think they ever have to put chemicals in their swimming pool: FALSE
• No system is chemical-free. Having newer or various systems such as a salt system or ozone system will cut back on how often you need to check and maintain your chemicals, but you will always have to add chemicals to keep things properly balanced.
Algae is caused by not properly maintaining your chemicals:TRUE
• If you do not properly maintain your swimming pool chemicals, then algae will grow and can affect other components of your pool as well as an undesirable environment for guests to enjoy.
If you have a chlorine pool, you must check your chemicals every week: TRUE
• However, if you have a salt system, then you are able to check your chemicals monthly. If you have an ozone system on top of the salt system, then you can check your chemicals every other month!
You have to maintain your chemicals more in the winter:FALSE
• As most of us South Floridians know, during the summertime there is more rain and sun. This means that homeowners need to use more chemicals and check theirs more often due to the heat causing evaporate and the rainwater diluting them.
