Pool Cleaners Parkwood

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. Thankfully, protecting your lawn from this damage doesn't have to be difficult, as all you'll need to do is make sure you avoid spilling any salt onto your lawn, and that the pool's chlorine levels are kept in check. No matter what your question, if you need help with pool care in Parkwood, call us on (07) 5537 3341.

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.

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. The standard used to be constant vigilance, with pool owners needing to manually add chlorine to their pool water with a clockwork consistency. Fortunately, you can save time maintain your Parkwood pool with a filtration system that utilises 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. Your pool water will need to be maintained at an appropriate pH level to ensure the chlorine treatment remains effective. 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. 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. If you need pool care in Parkwood, you can reach out team by calling (07) 5537 3341.

Avoid greatly altering the chemical balance of your pool in a single pass wherever possible. Make smaller changes instead by using smaller amounts of chemicals in any one attempt. Test the water's chemical levels a few hours after each small change, though it is important that you leave it to rest with the filter running in the interim. 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. 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.
