Maintaining the pH of the pool at optimal levels on our own can often be a challenging task. In order to enjoy crystal-clear water in our pool throughout the summer season, we need to keep a couple of things in mind.
First of all, we must know that the optimal pH will be found when the water values of our pool are between 7.2 and 7.6 to avoid damage to the skin and our hair.
How to measure the pH of Water
In order to know the values of the water in our pool, it is essential to understand how to measure the pH of the water.
First, we should take a sample of the water from the pool using a bucket, cup, or any container that can hold a small sample of water.
Secondly, we must keep in mind that there are multiple devices and methods to measure the pH of the water, so if we do not have any of them, we can find everything from electronic devices that perform the analysis to test strips that we need to wet in the water to be analyzed and then add a few drops of analysis product. You can find different water analysis devices at GroupSumi.
In this step, we will already know the result of the pH values of our pool water, so referring back to the previous information, it should be between 7.2 and 7.6. If it is not, we recommend that you take action accordingly to keep your pool water up to date.
If the water in your pool is not within the optimal range, keep reading, we will tell you how to achieve it!
Simple ways to raise the pH of the Pool
The first and simplest method is to add pH+, so that when using this product in the water, it will cause the pH to increase almost instantly. However, we must be careful, as an excess of pH can also be harmful to swimmers.
We recommend making small-scale additions of pH+ so that you can better control the increase in values.
However, you should know that to raise the pH of the pool, we must connect the water circulation system along with the products we add; this way, we will ensure that the product circulates and distributes throughout the water.
How to Achieve Crystal Clear Water in the Pool
If you are someone who always seeks perfection, let us tell you that you have come to the right place. In order to achieve crystal clear water in the pool, you have various options depending on what is suitable.
If we are looking to perform a shock treatment, you can use the flocculant, which will trap any dirt present in the water and make our pool completely crystal clear.
If we prefer to have the water completely under control at all times and have a saltwater pool, we can choose the option of salt electrolysis equipment, which will automatically manage the quality of the water.
