Pool Cleaners Ashmore

Most pools on the Gold Coast use a saltwater chlorinator to sanitise the pool. By converting salt to chlorine, this chlorinator is able to keep your pool healthy and clean. Over the years, our team of pool specialists has seen the damage the resultant high amounts of salt and concentrated chlorine can do to a lawn. The important thing is to keep the chlorine level in the pool within the recommended range, and be a little bit careful when adding salt to the pool so that it doesn't spill directly on your grass.

Yes. It's safe to have pool lights in your pool, because these lights are low voltage. To make sure they are only using safe voltage levels, a transformer is used to ensure they use about 12 volts. Active Pool Supplies can provide modern LED pool lights with varying features, including the ability to change the colour of the light, and remote control.

You should not rely on a pool cover to keep you or anyone else safe around the pool. Requirements surrounding fencing and pool safety are made extremely clear in Australia's swimming pool safety laws. If your pool is protected by just a pool cover, accidents can still happen. For help with pool covers and pool safety on the Gold Coast, come in and see the team here at Active Pool Supplies at our Bundall and Runaway Bay stores, or call us today on (07) 5537 3341.

In order for your pool to be healthy and balanced, appropriate levels of sanitiser must be present. You'll commonly want to use chlorine to achieve this, thanks to its ability to kill undesirable elements within your water, including algae, bacteria, and small organisms. Pool owners have several choices when they need to decide how they would like to chlorinate their pool. In the past, pool owners would manually dose chlorine in liquid form on a very regular basis. Modern Ashmore pool owners, however, can save time by using a saltwater chlorinator with their filtration system. Electrolysis is used to create a soluble hypochlorous gas by adding salt to pool water as it passes through the chlorinator cell, and this gas is used as the sanitising agent that removes bacteria and algae from your pool. For the chlorine to work effectively, the pool water must be balanced so that it remains at the optimal pH level. Additionally, the water must be filtered adequately so that dead algae and bacteria is captured in the filter and periodically removed from the water when the filter is cleaned. Cleaning the floors and walls of the pool to remove dirt, dust, and debris is also critical to preventing algae, as is good water flow.

Owning a pool can be hard work, requiring constant maintenance and upkeep. Though you may want to try to speed through your maintenance commitments for your pool wherever you can, you might not be able to rush the process of balancing your pool's chemicals. With some help from Active Pool Supplies, you'll be able to maintain the chemical balance in your pool using the best practices possible, ensuring it remains healthy for longer.

Don't alter the chemical balance of your pool in a single, large pass. Rather, only make small changes by using smaller amounts of chemicals. Once you have, you should leave them to rest with a running filter for a few hours, and then test the water. You can repeat this process until you're satisfied with the results, which may not be the case for large changes. Correcting the influence of large amounts of chemical can be difficult, and so by making large changes all at once, you may find yourself in a tough spot. Rather than making a single, large change to your pool's chemical balance, it's important that you make multiple smaller changes instead.
