Money-Saving Tips for Your Pool
Choose regular professional pool cleaning services
Trying to maintain your pool without the help of a professional might seem like a way to save money but in reality, it often costs much more. Many homeowners end up spending significantly on chemicals, only to realize they’ve used the wrong products or quantities. In some cases, costs can even triple due to improper handling of chemicals and equipment.
Without proper care, your pool can quickly turn green, leading to additional expenses and even reducing the lifespan of the pool’s finish and equipment.
Your pool should be a place of relaxation, fun, and quality time with family and friends. There’s nothing better than enjoying a clean, safe, and well-maintained swimming poolwithout the stress.
Keep Your Pool Water Clean and Equipment Running Smoothly
Replace your filter cartridge annually and clean the filter monthly
Over time, your pool's filter cartridge becomes saturated with dirt, oils, and minerals that regular cleaning can’t fully remove. When this happens, it no longer filters efficiently and needs to be replaced.
Cleaning the filter monthly and replacing the cartridge once a year helps prevent the buildup of debris, keeps your water crystal clear, extends the lifespan of your equipment, and ensures your pool stays properly sanitized.
For the best results, we recommend replacing the filter cartridge annually.
Efficient Pool Operation Tips
Run your pool pump for at least 8 hours a day
Letting your pool pump run for at least 8 hours daily ensures proper water circulation and complete filtration. This helps prevent dust and debris buildup and, in the case of saltwater systems, ensures enough chlorine is generated to keep the pool properly sanitized. Running the pump for less time can lead to low chlorine levels and water that’s not safe for swimming.
Turn off water features and the heater when not in use
When your pool is not in use, turning off water features (like fountains or waterfalls) and the heater helps reduce evaporation and the need to refill the pool. This also helps cut down on chemical use and lowers energy costs saving you money while protecting your equipment.
