As pool owners, it’s important to remember that preventative pool maintenance is key to keeping your backyard oasis in great condition for years to come. Just like taking care of your car or your own health, a little maintenance now goes a long way and can save you money in the long run.

Here are some simple tips to keep your pool looking crystal clear and clean:

Get An Automatic Pool Cover

Not only do they keep your pool safe, but they also prevent dirt and debris from entering the water, making it easier to clean and maintain. Plus, they come in different fabric choices or flat plastic slats to match your backyard decor. Did we mention energy savings? You can save up to 70% in water heating costs and reduction in chemical usage.

Keep Your Filters Clean Year Round 

Checking and changing your pool filter regularly will make a huge difference in keeping your pool water clean. Rinse the filter along with every pool water change to extend its life and keep it working optimally.

Leaf Skimming 

Even with a cover, leaves and debris can still find their way into your pool. Keep a leaf skimmer nearby to regularly clean as you go.

Grab The Pool Vacuum 

Sand and dirt can build up over time, so it’s important to run a pool vacuum at least once a week to keep your pool looking pristine.

Circulate Water With Pool Pump

The pool pump helps circulate the water, which filters out algae and bacteria and distributes any chemicals in the pool.

Check Your Water Chemistry

Checking and adjusting the pH of your pool water regularly is important to prevent issues that could become costly. Monitor and treat accordingly to maintain water quality.
