Pool maintenace

  • Notes on maintaining a chlorine pool.

Chemical's

  • Links Pool Math

  • Chlorine(CH) - the bug killer

    • maintain the appropriate free chlorine (FC) level at all times
  • Cyanauric acid(CYA) - a.k.a. the stabilize , protect the chlorine from the sun

    • To much CYA makes the chlorine in effective.
    • CYA-Chlorine chart.

    • You can add CYA, but not remove it, the only way to lower the concentration is to replace water
    • Most Chlorine floaters that are stabilized, adds CYA to the water, CYA thus just keeps building up, until you backwash and replace some water.
      • Note: Dichlor and trichlor add CYA and lower pH. Cal-hypo adds CH.
  • Ph - This is the Acidity(low Ph) or Alkalinity(high Ph) level.

    • Try and keep this in the 7.2-7.6 range to allow Chlorine to work effectively, and protect pool from corrosion.
  • calcium hardness (CH) level of your water.

Filter

  • Sandfilter
    • Catches big particles in sand layer, removing them from the water.
    • A lot of things i the water is so small it goes right through the filter e.g. Algea etc.
