How to maintain a removable swimming pool

To enjoy a pleasant bath it is important to have the pool free of dirt and with a transparent and healthy water. To obtain that it is necessary to analyze the levels of pH and chlorine with the analyzer kits and to put the purifier in filtration during some hours a day.

Analyze pool pH

The pH of the water indicates the level of acidity of the pool water. Above 7.6 is an alkaline water and below 7.2 is an acidic water. The optimum level is therefore between 7.2 and 7.6. The pH levels should be tested at least 2-3 days a week.

To regulate the pH of the pool water, pH reducer or pH increaser should be used.

A very important fact is that if the pH is not within the optimum values, the disinfectant will not work. So this parameter will be the first to analyze and adjust.

Measuring pool chlorine

The next parameter to analyze is chlorine, the most used disinfectant in private and public pools, chemical used to prevent the proliferation of bacteria, algae and the formation of parasites.

The optimum level of total chlorine is between 0.5 - 1.5 ppm. To adjust the levels we will use shock chlorine (dichlorine) or chlorine tablets (trichlorine). The chlorine level should be tested at least 2-3 days a week.

In removable pools it is important to use a dispenser or to dilute the product before in a bucket with water, if it is added directly it can discolor the liner or damage it.

The amount of disinfectant to be added to the pool will depend on several factors: number of swimmers, weather conditions, water temperature, etc.

Detachable swimming pool purifier

One of the main elements to have clean water for bathing is the swimming pool purifier, in charge of water filtration.

To filter the water in the removable swimming pools it is possible to use the cartridge purifier or the complete filtration equipments.

The cartridge filtering system allows to filter the water according to the volume of the pool by means of a paper cartridge. This cartridge has a useful life of approximately 2 weeks, to ensure an optimal cleaning it is advisable to change it at the end of this period.

The complete filtration equipment, a complete purifier that includes pump and filter. Monobloc filtration equipment perfect for removable pools, inflatable, wooden... in general for pools of small dimensions.
