TIPS FOR MAXIMIZING CHLORINE
We understand firsthand how the cost of chlorine can add up over the season, so we wanted to share a few tips to help you maximize your chlorine - without sacrificing safe, sparkling water!
1. BALANCE
Balance your pool water to ensure your chlorine can be most effective and efficient.
2. CLEAN
Keep your pool clean. Be sure to clean your pool regularly – skim the surface for debris, scrub the pool walls and empty the skimmer basket. To make this quick and painless, invest in a robotic pool cleaner - you won't regret it! Also, be sure to backwash the filter on a regular basis; we recommend weekly.
3. TIMING MATTERS
Be sure to add your chlorine early in the morning or late in the evening to ensure the hot sun doesn't burn off any of the chlorine.
4. MINIMIZE CONTAMINANTS
Minimize external contaminants in your water. Things like make-up, hair products and suntan oil all require your chlorine to go to work to remove the contaminants. If you avoid bringing these products into your pool, more of your chlorine stays free longer. It's nearly impossible to keep all contaminants from entering your pool, so we recommend adding enzymes to quickly filter them out.
