How Much Care Will
My New Pool Require?
Pool care requirements can vary significantly depending on frequency of use, location, size, temperature, and design.
The most important elements of pool care
typically include the following:
Circulate and filter your pool water about 10-12 hours a day.
Clean and maintain your pool’s filters about once a month.
Skim leaves, pine needles, etc. from the water’s surface daily.
Vacuum your pool once a week, or more as needed.
Check your pool’s PH, alkalinity, and calcium hardness once a week.
Add chemicals as needed.
Add pool shock after heavy rains or after your pool was used by more people than normal (like after a pool party).
