Pool Cleaners Hollywell

Most pools on the Gold Coast use a saltwater chlorinator to sanitise the pool. The conversion of salt to chlorine allows the chlorinator to ensure your pool remains both healthy and clean. Now, while we may not be gardeners, personal experience suggests that high levels of chlorine and concentrated amounts of salt will damage your 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. The low voltage nature of these lights renders them safe to have in your pool. The power is passed through a transformer which reduces the voltage to a safe level (typically 12 volt). 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. The swimming pool safety laws of Australia clearly lay out a comprehensive list of safety requirements, including all necessary fencing that a pool will require. A pool cover will not stop accidents from occurring. 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. Chlorine is the most common tool for keeping your pool well maintained, as it can help you kill any small organisms, bacteria, or algae present within your pool water. There are several different ways of adding chlorine to the pool. In the past, pool owners would manually dose chlorine in liquid form on a very regular basis. Today, anyone with a Hollywell pool is able to cut out the maintenance time with a filtration system fitted with a saltwater chlorinator. The chlorinator cell uses electrolysis to add salt to the pool water, creating a soluble hypochlorous gas that sanitises the pool water by removing algae and bacteria. You'll need to keep your pool water well balanced to ensure the chlorine is able to work effectively. 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. Good water flow throughout the pool is helpful, as is periodic brushing/cleaning of the walls and floor of the pool to remove dirt, dust and other debris.

Owning a pool can be hard work, requiring constant maintenance and upkeep. Keeping the chemical balance of your pool well-maintained is a delicate process, and you should make sure you don't try to rush through it. Thankfully, Active Pool Supplies can help you understand the best practices for maintaining the chemical balance of your pools.

It's best if you avoid changing the chemical balance of your pool by large amount in single passes. Make smaller changes instead by using smaller amounts of chemicals in any one attempt. After these changes have been made, test the water once you've left it to rest for a few hours with the filter running. You can repeat this process until you're satisfied with the results, which may not be the case for large changes. By adding large amounts of chemicals to your pool at once, it's possible that you'll make significant changes that will be difficult to correct. If you're trying to maintain the chemical balance of your pool, you should avoid making large changes all at once.
