Keeping the pool water chemistry regularly intact can be exhausting for some time as the components of the pool water may regularly change in levels. Almost all swimming pools around the world use tap water in order to fill the pool up to the desired pool water level. The tap water already contains its own ph, calcium hardness, and alkalinity level. However, these given water chemistry may not fit on the standards that pool waters should be for a safe, healthy and comfortable experience on swimming pools.

Pool water maintenance is similar to keeping the pool clean by regularly brushing off any dirt or algae formations on the walls and floor of the swimming pool. The constant vacuuming of floating dirt and small debris is also needed in order to preserve its natural beauty. In pool water chemistry, the constant testing on the water is required to prevent future water related problems on your pool. The levels of the elements present in the pool water should be kept at all times on their required parameters to keep the water clean and clear as well as to maintain the good quality of the water itself.

Here is a simple procedure on how to balance your pool chemicals in a basic way suitable for anyone:

1.First of all, you need to purchase the required chemical adjusters, pool water test kit that are necessary for setting your pool water chemistry in its acceptable parameters. A good place to get these stuffs is at a swimming pool supply store as they offer a wide selection on great products that you can choose from. You can also seek for advices and opinions regarding the correct way of adjusting pool chemicals.

2.Either you are fixing the pool chemical levels with new water or by maintaining the pool water chemistry as a regular operation; you need to get the pool cleaned thoroughly before you begin working on the chemical improvement.

3.Testing the pool water is necessary before you make adjustments on the water chemistry for you to have a reference or guide on how much amount of each chemical is required to be poured into the pool water. The water test kit you purchased should be of good quality for a better reading on the pool chemistry. The testing of the pool water should be done several times and after the setting of each chemical in order to get updates on the increase or decrease of the corresponding chemicals.

4.Prepare each chemical by carefully reading the label for the instructions on how to properly handle the product. The dosage is also indicated at the back of the product which stipulates the exact ratio of pool water by gallons and the chemical. Usually, most chemical adjusting products can be used on two solutions, one is by broadcasting in its powdered form and the other is by diluting it to become a liquid solution before gradually pouring into the pool water.

5.Make sure that the pool pump and filtration system is running during the whole course of chemical balancing. Use chlorine or your preferred disinfectant to clean the pool water.
