Pool Tip Tuesday!
Unfortunately we are getting closer and closer to closing time, and with that comes these brisk nights. With those brisk nights the temperature of the pools for most people has been plummeting.
Unless you have a heater some of the warmer days we have been getting people are still not using the pool as the water is just too cold! 🥶
This may be the case but I have still been having people coming in complaining about algae, even though no one has been using it, but that is precisely why the pool has algae in it. With any pool, especially in-grounds, when there is no motion from swimmers there is going to be inherent "dead zones" in the pool that get less motion from the pump, and as such get less filtration and access to the chlorine in the water. Those are the spots that are going to breed and spread algae in the pool.
So our pool tip of this Tuesday is even if you are not using your pool, that is actually all the more reason we recommend you brushing the floors and walls every week or so to prevent this algae build up until you close up the pool.
As always let us know if you knew this, if it was helpful, or if you have any other questions!
