Water balancers way to keep your pool crystal clear and safe to swim in.

Water sanitation needs to be carried out to ensure bather safety. Bacteria will quickly multiply in a pool that remains unsanitised. The ideal levels of free chlorine for your pool is 7.2ppm minimum to a maximum of 7.6ppm. Learn more about Pool & Spa Sanitation.

Maintaining a Safe and Healthy Swimming Pool with Proper Water Balancing

Importance of Water Balancing

When it comes to swimming pools, maintaining the right water balance is crucial. Proper water balance ensures a healthy and safe swimming environment, prevents damage to the pool structure and equipment, and keeps the water clear and inviting.

Understanding pH Levels

One of the critical aspects of water balancing is understanding pH levels. The pH level measures the acidity or alkalinity of a substance on a scale of 0 to 14. The ideal pH level for a swimming pool is between 7.2 and 7.8. If the pH level is too high or too low, it can cause a range of problems.

Correcting pH Levels with pH Balancers

 

  • If the pH reading is above 7.8 it means that water balance is too high, you will need to use a pH reducer (pH -) at the rate of 10gm per day 1000 litres of water until the correct level of pH is reached. This is the best way to reduce the chlorine levels in your pool. High pH will reduce the effectiveness of chlorine in your pool which would not be ideal for bathers.

 

  • If the pH reading is below 7.2 it means that the water balance is too low, you will need to use a pH increaser (pH +) at the rate of 10grm per day 1000 litres of water until the correct level of pH is reached. Low pH will reduce the effectiveness of chlorine in your pool which would not be ideal for bathers.

Corect Use of Water Balancers

Water balancing chemicals play a crucial role in maintaining the health and safety of your pool. High or low pH levels can cause cloudy water and make scaly deposits. Proper use of water balancers prevents damage to your pool and ensures proper sanitation.

Using Chemicals Safely

When using chemicals, safety should always be a top priority. Always dilute them in a bucket of water, stir until dissolved, and then add to the swimming pool. Never add chemicals directly to the pool, as this can damage the liner, cause color loss, and make it brittle. When adding pH balancers, make sure to wear appropriate protection for your eyes and wear gloves.

Conclusion

Proper water balance is essential for maintaining a safe and healthy swimming pool environment. Understanding pH levels and using pH balancers or water balancers can help keep your pool water in perfect balance. Remember to follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

 

Never add more than the recommended amount of chemicals, thinking it will solve the problem quicker; you will be just creating more problems.

 

Water quality is affected by the effect of pH, which is affected by the alkalinity. pH levels that are too high or too low can cause cloudy water and make scaly deposits. Water balancing chemicals have a crucial part to play as they prevent damage to your pool and poor sanitation.

Balancing water in your pool means to bring the water balance to the correct level for safe bathing.
