How to Maintain your Pool Yourself

Measure the pH and chlorine level needed by using the tester kit and correct amount of solution.

(use tester kit manual) 

Use soft pool brush to prevent algae and build up calcium on walls and bottom of pool. Removes leaves, and extra debris from skimmer basket. 

Recommended pH Level between 7.2 & 7.8. Refers to alkalinity and calcium level, that affects input of chlorine or acid and how your pool runs overall. 

Ideal Chlorine levels are 1 and 4 ppm. 

If your pool is lacking chlorine, algae and bacterial may show up. Add chlorine regularly or use a salt chlorine generator to keep pool clean.

Everything goes through the pool filter everyday. Clean each filter with cleaning solution and rinse with hose, once a month. 

Important to keep the water at the proper surface level, for pool pump and filter to operate best. Fill with hose if needed.
