How To Keep The Pool Clean Between Pool Service Palm Springs Visits In Your Home

By Gregory Bell


No sooner has the cleaning teams have left the pool starts getting dirt again. Unfortunately, most wait for the next visit by the professional cleaners to have the cleaning done again. However, some few cleaning techniques may help maintain the water clean, clear and smelling fresh. Here is what to do before the next visit by the pool service Palm Springs contractors in your home.

During the fall season, it is common to find dried leaves and sticks from deciduous plants surrounding the pool. There are also insects that fall and float on the surface. Skim the debris using as skimming bucket. You can buy one from the stores or attach a net to a long handle. If debris is not skimmed, it eventually sinks and becomes hard to remove.

Drain the water every fourteen or so days and vacuum the floor. The sides should also be scrubbed to rid of calcium deposits and algae that grow on the sides. Scrub the sides by use of hard bristles. However, if the walls are made of fiberglass, use soft bristles to prevent damage by scratching the surface.

On emptying the pool, ensure that the filter is checked before refilling. The filter blocks lots of debris and sediments. With time, the dirt accumulates and ultimately blocks the entry. Some filters can be cleaned while other types may require replacement. Have the professional cleaners handle the replacement if you find it hard to replace the filter.

Investigate if the tubes of the heating equipment contain calcium deposits. If the calcium deposits get large, they may block the free flow of the water to and from the heating system. An electrical technician may help replace or clean the tubes. Moreover, during the winter period, have the system detached and the pipes dried out to prevent damage from solidified ice.

Human body excretes ammonia through the skin. It combines with nitrogen to make chlorine. The gas has a pungent smell, which is offensive to the users. Fortunately, you can get rid of the smell by adding super chlorinate to the water. It works by raising chlorine levels and thus putting down foul smells.

The ideal water pH is between 7 and 8. You may buy a pH meter from the household stores to check the pH. If the pH is more than 8, add an acidic solution to bring it to the right PH. Add an alkaline solution to water that is less than a pH of 7 to neutralize the acidity.

Ensure that those that would like to swim bathe before entering the pool. This reduces the body wastes left in the water. If you maintain your pool regularly, you can space the professional cleanings for a longer time and pay less for the service. This also keeps the facility in a usable state until it is serviced again. Pick a reputable professional cleaner to handle the servicing so that it is done well and professionally.
