South Florida’s winter season came and went. Now what? With an early spring underway, it’s time to prep your swimming pool for backyard fun all season long. Get a head start on spring cleaning with these four simple tips every pool owner should know.
Pools Need Love, Too
Your first step will be to prepare the outdoor space around your swimming pool and pump. A little landscaping may be necessary, so be sure to trim any nearby branches, bushes, and flower beds.
Rake and clean up all the leaves, clippings, and underbrush taking up space on your pool deck. Keep the area around your swimming pool pump and filter clean by clearing out any mulch, leaves, and branches that have grown too close to your equipment.
Perform an Inspection
Regardless of how often you use your swimming pool, make sure your pool is in good standing before jumping in. Inspect your pool filter and pumps, skimmer box, and other equipment for signs of damage.
Check for cracks or other impairments that could be affecting your water levels and chemical balance. Repair or replace any broken or outdated equipment as needed, or contact a professional pool care service to examine your pool for leaks, imbalances, and other warning signs before any damage occurs.
Pool Water Cleanup
Use a hose to fill your pool with water until it is up the skimmer opening. Give yourself time to perform a thorough cleaning, including vacuuming the floor, skimming out leaves, bugs, or debris in the water. Make sure your water chemistry is balanced and ready for use.
Last but not least, stay on top of necessary cleaning with a regular maintenance schedule to keep your pool clean and healthy. Now all that’s left for you to do is jump in!
