Tips For Weekly Pool Maintenance


July 28, 2022


Who doesn’t love a dip in the pool during the summer? If you’re a pool owner, you likely know they require a good amount of care throughout the season. If you’re looking to better understand the weekly maintenance required to keep your pool safe and enjoyable for everyone, our team is here to help. 

From the swimming pool maintenance experts at Ambrosio Landscape Solutions, here are a few tips to help you take care of your pool weekly: 

Vacuum And Skim Out Dirt And Debris

Taking the time to clean your pool each week will go a long way to ensure your pool continues to be safe and healthy for you and your family. Use a long-handled leaf skimmer to clean floating leaves, insects, sticks, etc., off the water’s surface. To get to the debris and algae on the bottom of your pool, use a pool vacuum.  

Clean The Filter

Your pool’s filters help keep it clean too, but they can’t do their job if they’re clogged. Check the pool filter weekly, especially if your pool is used frequently, and remove any debris that has accumulated.  

Check And Maintain The Water Chemistry

Improper pool chemistry can not only cause damage to your pool surfaces and equipment but also be a hazard to your health. Test your water with pool chemistry strips twice a week to monitor the chemical levels. Based on the results, make the needed adjustments to the water before taking a dip. 

Maintain The Water Level

Ignoring your water’s level and letting it rise or drop can throw off the chemistry of the water. Further, if you don’t maintain the pool’s water level, the skimmers and filters may not be keeping your pool cleaned.
