5 Tips for a Perfect Pool

Keep it clean, save on chemicals
When you add chlorine to your pool, it attacks organic compounds in the water. The less stuff there is in the water, the more effective the chemicals will be. Automatic cleaners are great for picking up the little stuff, but the pool should be swept and manually vacuumed once a week.

Starve out Algae
Algae needs food, Phosphates. PhosFree is an easy to use chemical with an Algae Free Guarantee. It removes the phosphates from the water, starving out algae before it can take over your pool.

Shock regularly
A weekly dose of chlorine is your best defense against cloudy or green water. Oxidizing the contaminants in your pool prevents algae blooms, and ensures clear water.

Let your pool breathe
Pool covers are great for keeping debris out of the pool, but your pool needs to breathe. Chemicals need to gas off, especially contaminants like ammonia and nitrogen. Not letting the pool breathe long enough after a shock can trap these gasses inside the cover, and return them to the water.

Change your sand every 3 years
Sand filters do a great job, but can only do their best when the sand is still coarse. Over the years, the grains of sand wear down from jagged-edged, to smooth like river rocks. A sand change every three years ensures the best filtration.

Take the Work Out of Pool Cleaning

Robots build our computers, weld our cars, and, in the last few years, sweep our floors. Now, they can clean your pool. We now offer Dolphin Robotic Pool Cleaners by Maytronics.

These amazing robotic cleaners plot out the floor shape and size of your pool, and complete a cleaning cycle in about 3 hours. And, with their low power consumption, the entire cycle costs about 15 cents to run.
