8 Tips for Starting Up Your Pool!

Here are eight tips to ensure a smooth start to the swimming season!

1. Equipment : Although most pools are not used in winter, it is essential to check all pool equipment, such as the equipment room, pump, filter, seals, and liner. Winter is the ideal time for maintenance to avoid unpleasant surprises when the nice weather starts again.

​

2. Replace worn equipment : Prevent discomfort during the swimming season by replacing worn parts in a timely manner. After all, prevention is better than cure.

​

3. Bathing water : Whatever cover you use, check the water condition and take appropriate measures to ensure water quality. Remove leaves and dirt regularly to prevent contamination.

​

4. Clean the filter : Since filtration is crucial for water treatment, regular cleaning of the filter is very important. Depending on the type of filter, replace the filter material in time.

​

5. Check the pump : Inspect and replace worn pump parts to ensure smooth operation. Check the condition of the pump basket, pre-filter and seals.

​

6. Check the equipment room : If you have automated treatment equipment, such as a pH dosing system, perform maintenance in late winter or early spring. Clean the electrolytic cell and check the electrode calibration.

​

7. Check seals : Do not forget to check the seals of equipment, lubricate them with neutral grease and replace them if necessary.

​

8. Check cleaning accessories : Well-maintained cleaning tools, such as wall brushes, landing nets, brushes or suction cups, are essential for a clean pool.

By following these steps, you will optimally prepare your pool for the coming swimming season!
