Ahhhh… A Clean Pool is awaiting you.
When you get home from the office, the last thing you want to do is additional work. One thing you can mark off your list is pool maintenance. The time it takes to clean and balance your pool can be spent enjoying this time with family and friends in your backyard oasis.
Maintaining an effective concentration of disinfectant is critically important in assuring the safety and health of swimming pool and spa users. When any of these pool chemicals are used, it is very important to keep the pH of the pool in the range 7.2 to 7.8 – according to the Langelier Saturation Index, or 7.8 to 8.2 – according to the Hamilton Index; higher pH drastically reduces the sanitizing power of the chlorine due to reduced oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), while lower pH causes bather discomfort, especially to the eyes. However, according to the Hamilton Index, a higher pH can reduce unnecessary chlorine consumption while still remaining effective at preventing algae and bacteria growth.
To help ensure the health of bathers and protect pool equipment, it is essential to perform routine monitoring of water quality factors (or “parameters”) on a regular basis. This process becomes the essence of an optimum water quality management program. Call The Pool Guy Northshore Today! 985-502-6768.
