To preserve the quality of the pool water, regular maintenance of the basin is essential. It is necessary to clean it using a complete maintenance kit. Between water treatment and pool cleaning, it is necessary to distinguish the parameters to consider for proper maintenance of an above-ground or in-ground pool.
A pool maintenance kit notably allows for easier cleaning of the basin with the use of suitable tools. It generally includes:
- a telescopic pole brush;
- a vacuum cleaner;
- a leaf skimmer;
- a wall brush;
- a hand brush;
- a floating hose;
- a pool thermometer.
These accessories help preserve the quality of the pool water. Indeed, several symptoms can appear when a pool is poorly maintained:
- formation of algae;
- cloudy or greenish water;
- proliferation of germs and fungi.
Weekly maintenance of the pool is recommended to ensure the purity of the water. To do this, it is necessary to:
- vacuum impurities using a pool vacuum cleaner;
- clean the walls and bottom to prevent the appearance of algae.
A manual pool brush allows for cleaning the bottom and the stairs.
For an in-ground pool, it is necessary to empty the basin before a complete cleaning. It is also important to maintain the basin's filtration system. Indeed, filtration equipment such as the pump, the filter, and the skimmers can get clogged quickly.
In the case of an above-ground pool:
- the use of a bottom and surface leaf skimmer is essential to get rid of all kinds of dirt;
- cleaning the waterline with a sponge helps eliminate the waste that accumulates there.
Besides regular pool maintenance, it is important to choose suitable treatment products to preserve a healthy environment for swimmers.
