It is easy to keep your indoor swimming pool in top condition provided you keep these pieces of advice in mind. You can ensure that your pool remains a pleasant and safe place with little cost and effort:
– to avoid green pool color, stir up the water to have debris to rise to the surface where it can be removed
– to avoid ph level to go too high or too low, frequently test the pool’s water using testing strips or sending a sample of your pool water to a pool store that will probably test it for you and tell you which chemicals to use
– to avoid murky or unclear water due to high levels of algae or bacteria, use shock chemicals that will correct this problem
– if your water is cloudy or greenish, you should probably replace or repair your water filter
Also, winter months are a good time to perform routine inspections and repairs:
– Clean or repaint the pool concrete surface by draining it
– Check and replace pool pump and filter if necessary
– Repair any chips or cracks in your deck
– Check diving boards or other moving equipment like ladders or rails for needed repair
– Check connections for possible gas leaks if you have a gas pool heater
