Things You Need To Get For Your Pool

A pool is a great thing to have in your backyard to cool off during those hot summer days. But no matter if you built your pool this year, last year, or ten years ago, the important thing to have are tools that will allow you to properly clean it and take care of it.

But what are the things that you need that will be the difference maker for it? In this article, we are going to talk about the things that you need to get for your pool to remain in top notch condition.

  • 1. Water Test Strips
  • 2. Variable Speed Pump
  • 3. Pool Shock
  • 4. Algae Brush

1. Water Test Strips

Water test strips are very important tools that allow you to test the water of your pool. A great rule of thumb is to test the water at least once a week. Regular water testing allows you to know when to add chemicals to your pool to prevent bacteria and algae from inhabiting it.

Another way to do this is to take a sample of the pool water and take it for testing at your local pool supply store, but all of us know how inconvenient that sounds. So one way to stay convenient is to buy water test strips and test the water yourself.

2. Variable Speed Pump

A variable speed pump is the best tool you can buy to save on operating costs for your swimming pool. A pool pump is an extreme necessity for your pool because it is the heart of the swimming pools circulation system. A basic pool pump can cost you a lot of money in terms of maintenance. But the best variable speed pool pumps can save you up to 90% of costs due to the motor that operates on much lower speeds.

3. Pool Shock

Our pools can become pretty nasty places where human skin cells, oil, and other nasty microbes call home. One way to dispose of such microbes is to use pool chemicals, and of all those chemicals a pool shock is the most important one.

Whenever you notice that your pool starts smelling funny, or something similar like a hotel pool, then It’s time to take out the pool shock and sanitize your pool. A pool shock will kill off any harmful bacteria, algae, and remove skin cells, oils, and various microbes that inhabit your pool.  Of all the pool shock types, make sure to choose one made for calcium hypochlorite to prevent that dreaded pool smell.

4. Algae Brush

Every pool requires taking special care of. That means removing the disguising algae that inhibit it. But to remove these algae, you would need the proper tools to do it. So for that reason, you need to buy an algae brush. An algae brush has stainless steel bristles that can easily remove and break algae from the walls, steps, and any other place they might be hiding. An algae brush is a very convenient pool maintenance tool that is easy to use, will save you money, and will save you a lot of time. Did we mention stainless steel brushes, why? Well, stainless steel is best for concrete or gunite pools, but if your pool has a vinyl liner, make sure to buy a brush with nylon bristles to avoid damaging it.
