A custom pool is a significant investment that brings joy and relaxation to your home. To ensure your pool remains in top condition, follow these maintenance tips and best practices from Rosmel Pools.

Skimming and Vacuuming: Skim the surface daily to remove debris and vacuum the pool weekly to prevent dirt buildup.

Brushing: Brush the walls and tiles to avoid algae and calcium deposits.

Chemical Balance

Testing Water: Regularly test the water for pH, chlorine, and alkalinity levels. Adjust chemicals as needed to maintain balance.

Shock Treatment: Periodically shock the pool with a higher dose of chlorine to kill bacteria and clear cloudy water.

Equipment Maintenance

Filter Cleaning:
Clean the pool filter regularly to ensure efficient operation. Different filters require different maintenance routines, so follow manufacturer instructions.

Pump Inspection: Check the pump and motor for signs of wear or
damage. Ensure they run efficiently to keep water circulating correctly.


Seasonal Care

Winterizing:
In cooler climates, you can winterize your pool by lowering the water level, adding antifreeze to the plumbing, and covering it to protect it from debris.

Spring Opening: Remove the cover, clean the pool thoroughly, and balance the chemicals to prepare for the swimming season.

Professional Servicing

Consider scheduling regular professional maintenance checks to ensure all systems are working on any potential issues early.

Following these tips will help keep your custom pool pristine and ensure it remains a beautiful and functional part of your home for years.
