Swimming pools need weekly cleaning this time of year. Trees are budding, flowers are blooming, and debris finds our pools. As water temperature steadily increases the risk of algae growth increases also. Algae spores can enter a pool in a variety of different ways, but is most commonly introduced into a pool through wind, rain, dirt, and even on a swimmer’s body or bathing suit.
Keeping algae spores out of your pool is impossible, so it is important to prevent the microscopic spores from turning into unsightly algae blooms. Weekly skimming, brushing, and vacuuming is vital to prevent algae in pools. A circulation system in good working condition is another important step to preventing algae growth. To keep circulation system running properly, regularly check and clean the skimmer and pump strainer baskets. This will keep the water and the sanitizing chemicals flowing evenly throughout your pool.
Algae spores are constantly finding their way into your pool, but are usually killed by the chlorine or other sanitizers before they ever grow into blooms. However, when the sanitizer levels get too low, these spores can quickly grow and begin to cling onto pool surfaces.
