Quick Tips for Homeowners on Keeping the Vibrancy of Oshawa Pools


"Proper upkeep of a swimming pool doesn’t end with specialized Oshawa pool supplies offered by companies like Claudette’s Pools & Hot Tubs, as well as only a fleeting knowledge of how it’s done.

Skimming the surface of the pool involves a rather simple tool: a net on a long pole that allows for cleaning leaves and any other debris off the water’s surface. Getting the dried leaves and other foreign objects out while they’re still on the surface is much easier than removing them once they’ve sunk and stuck to the pool’s bottom."

Chemistry of Pool Maintenance: The Importance of pH in Oshawa Pools


"Inversely, base is needed to neutralize acidic pool water. Acid rain is one of the most common causes of acid accumulation, or just an overall low level of alkalinity. Corrosion of substances and surfaces that come into contact with them is the main problem that plagues such pools, so be sure to use chemicals with sodium carbonate, a relatively strong base also known as washing soda or soda ash. If you think that you need further help in maintaining the pH balance of your pool water, don’t fret. You can rely on professionals from nearby Oshawa or Ajax swimming pool companies like Claudette’s Pools & Hot Tubs for pool maintenance services."
