Swimming Pool Cleaning Supplies
One of the biggest headaches most pool owners have to endure during the summer is keeping their pool clean. In fact, some pool owners even go to the extent of paying high service fees to a pool cleaning company! At Pool Supply Unlimited, you’ll find all of the necessary swimming pool cleaning supplies you need to keep your pool water looking great and more importantly, safe to swim in.
Maintaining a Swimming Pool
New pool owners can often feel overwhelmed by the idea of maintaining a swimming pool. But really, once you know what to do, maintenance is a breeze. As long as you’ve got the right pool cleaning supplies handy, that is. In-season maintenance is one of the most important things you can do for your pool, and it’s often the most overlooked part of pool maintenance.
Pool maintenance can be broken up into daily, weekly, and monthly tasks.
Daily Tasks
Daily pool maintenance tasks include monitoring for problems and basic upkeep, including removing leaves and debris and inspecting the skimmer and pump baskets. This is where you’ll need your basic swimming pool cleaning supplies like poles and baskets, leaf nets, brushes, and vacuums. Telescoping poles with leaf rakes and nets will take care of floating debris in your pool. We carry dozens of pole, rake, and net options for you to choose from.
Weekly Maintenance Tasks
Once a week it’s recommended that you brush and clean your pool, check your pool equipment for leak and clogs and test the water chemistry. We carry plenty of brushes,
automatic pool cleaners, and watery chemistry test kits to make your weekly maintenance simple, as well as provide a helpful
guide to proper water chemistry.
You’ll also want to check water levels for signs of excess evaporation, heavy rainfall accumulation, and excessive algae growth. Saltwater pool owners should check that all readouts are normal and that chlorine production is steady.
Monthly Tasks
Monthly pool cleaning tasks consist of filter maintenance, an inspection of pump seals, deck tile (if you have it), and that all necessary pool cleaning chemicals are at their recommended levels. Concrete or gunite pool owners should check for surface cracks and every pool owner should check that
handrails & ladders, steps, diving board, and other safety equipment are securely in place.
When it comes to pool maintenance having the right pool cleaning supplies and using them consistently is key. Shop our large selection of pool cleaning supplies like brushes, poles, rakes vacuums, thermometers, pool treatments, and more for the cleanest pool on the block.
