Tips to keep swimming pools healthy in rainy weather in La Niña

From Eddie Lloyd

The Bureau of Meteorology has announced that La Niña is active, which is bringing about a drastic change in our summer weather and a lot more rain. According to Andrew Watkins, head of the Bureau of Meteorology's weather department, heat waves from La Niña may be less extreme, but they can last longer and be a little more uncomfortable with higher humidity and higher weather systems. Slower.

Other cyclones are likely as well, with Yasi occurring in a La Niña year. So, with long, wet heat waves on the horizon, our pools will get some movement.

There's nothing quite like swimming in your own pool to cool off. However, it is important to understand that hot and humid weather can affect water quality. At a La Niña event, we expect fluctuating weather conditions such as cooler temperatures one day, wind and storms the next, and hot, humid weather the next. This makes it even more difficult for pool owners to keep up with their pool chemistry.

advice

Here's how pool owners can keep their pools healthy and ready to swim during a hot and humid summer:

1. Prevent the pool water level from rising too high to maintain proper skimming and prevent contamination of the deck rinse water.
2. Rain brings pollutants with it. Make sure the filter and pump are well maintained and in good condition. Check and clean your equipment weekly, and run the filtration system for at least six to eight hours a day. A good idea would be to let a quick, natural filter cleaner through the filter before the summer season.
3. Check the pool water chemistry / water balance setting every other day and adjust accordingly. Pay particular attention after heavy use, a very hot day, or after heavy rain, which can affect all levels of chemical / water balance.
4. Use the theory that "prevention is better than cure". You will save time and money in the long run. Ideally, your regular maintenance should include doses of algicides and phosphate removers to keep the pool clean and healthy.
5. Vacuum and shovel the pool regularly to remove debris that has been blown into the pool by wind or rain.
6. Specialists should check the pool before and after heavy use or heavy rain. You can also take a sample from the elbow depth in the pool and bring it to your local store for analysis.
7. Secure toys, furniture, or equipment that may explode in strong winds before a storm.
8. Consider a magnesium-mineral pool system with photocatalytic DOP, which will help keep the pool cleaner, more stable for longer periods of time, and provide additional health benefits.
