Pool Cleaners Burleigh Heads

Most pools on the Gold Coast use a saltwater chlorinator to sanitise the pool. In brief, your pool is kept clean and healthy by the salt that this chlorinator converts to chlorine. As a result, your pool water will contain concentrated amounts of salt and high levels of chlorine, and while our team doesn't have any gardeners onboard, we've seen the damage that can do to lawns. Avoiding spilling salt onto your lawn and keeping the pool's chlorine levels in check is the easiest way to protect your lawn from this damage. If you have any questions about pool care in Burleigh Heads, you can reach out to our team on (07) 5537 3341.

Yes. Because pool lights are low voltage, they are safe to include in your pool. These lights use about 12 volts of power thanks a transformer, which is used to reduce the voltage to a safe level. We can help you find modern pool lights that utilise LEDs to allow for a variety of features, such as remote control or colour-changing functionality.

You should not rely on a pool cover to keep you or anyone else safe around the pool. In Australia, our swimming pool safety laws are very clear around safety matters, including the need for fencing. It takes more than a pool cover to stop accidents from occurring. Here at Active Pool Supplies, our Bundall and Runaway Bay stores can help you answer any questions you may have about pool covers or pool safety in the Gold Coast, and you're welcome to either visit us in-store or reach out to us at (07) 5537 3341.

In order for your pool to be healthy and balanced, appropriate levels of sanitiser must be present. Generally, you'd want to use chlorine to achieve this, as the chemical can destroy algae, bacteria, and a variety of small organisms that might be living in your pool. Chlorinating your pool can be done in a number of different ways. Manually chlorinating your pool on a regular basis was a common option in the past. Today, anyone with a Burleigh Heads pool is able to cut out the maintenance time with a filtration system fitted with a saltwater chlorinator. 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. Your pool water will also need to be well-filtered, and your filter will need to be cleaned of the dead algae and bacteria that it captures. 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. Consequentially, it's normal for homeowners to want to speed up the process of pool upkeep wherever they can, but that doesn't mean you'll be able to cut corners when it comes to keeping the chemical balance of your pool maintained. Active Pool Supplies are the experts in all matters related to pools, and can help you make sure you're maintaining the chemical balance in your pool in the best ways possible.

It's best if you avoid changing the chemical balance of your pool by large amount in single passes. 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. The chemical balance of your pool can be perfected by making multiple small changes and testing the water after each one, which you might not be able to do if you use large amounts of chemical at once. 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. Don't make large changes to the chemical balance of your pool in a single pass if you're trying to keep it well-maintained.
