To reduce the amount of dirt and debris that enters your swimming pool water, make sure you tarp your pool after every use. Most people don't think of this as part of their swimming pool maintenance program, but it is a basic line of defense against potentially disease-carrying elements from entering your water. You can save time in skimming the water, as well as money and chemical treatments, by keeping foreign contaminants out of the water to begin with.

Is Pool Maintenance Save Your Pool Or Waste Of Your Money?
Your swimming pool likely gets a lot of use every season, from pool parties to exercise routines, to the simple enjoyment of floating on the water. It is a hub of activity, relaxation, and entertainment, and as such requires a proper maintenance routine to keep it healthy, safe and beautiful for all to enjoy. Effective swimming pool maintenance doesn't require the use of a costly pool care company. By following these simple tips, you can save money and keep your pool in great shape.
You need to ensure your pool's water is sanitized. No swimming pool maintenance routine can be without the use of a stabilized chlorine product, which protects the water against harmful bacteria. Chlorine will either come in a stick or tablet form, depending on the manufacturer.
Effective swimming pool maintenance also requires an algae inhibitor. Algae is an extremely difficult problem to get rid of once it takes hold, so it is a good idea to add an algaecide to the water on a weekly basis. It comes in a liquid form and is added to your pool's water beside the skimmer intake, which enables the pool's pump system to distribute it throughout the water. Remember that you only add chemicals to water - not the other way around - to ensure they work properly.
Proper pool maintenance should also involve replacing your pool's pumps every few years. Pumps that are several years old won't function as well, plus newer ones will have more pumping power and better technology, which will save you money on your energy costs as well as the amount of chemicals that you need to use. An efficient working pump enhances your pool's circulation and filtration.
