Quick answers
How often should a pool be serviced?+
Weekly in summer and fortnightly in the cooler months is a common routine for most home pools, with more frequent checks during heavy use or hot weather. Regular small visits prevent the water going green, which is far cheaper than recovering a neglected pool.
Why does my pool keep going green?+
A pool goes green when algae takes hold, usually from low chlorine, poor filtration, an unbalanced pH or a failing pump or chlorinator. Fixing it means clearing the algae and then addressing the underlying cause, otherwise it comes straight back. A technician can identify which it is.
Can pool water be too unbalanced to swim in?+
Yes. Very low chlorine allows bacteria and algae, while very high chlorine or extreme pH can irritate skin and eyes and damage equipment. If in doubt, get the water tested before swimming. Balanced water is safer for swimmers and protects your pool surface and gear.
