Living in Dubai and owning a pool – well, what a life you’re living! But swimming pool maintenance is no joke! If you are here you might be looking for a pool maintenance checklist and this blog is all about that. So let’s get started.
Why is Swimming Pool Maintenance Important in Dubai?
Swimming pool maintenance is important for the following reasons:
- The pool water should be clean and safe for you and your family to make sure you and your family don’t have to deal with any kind of skin infections, respiratory problems, and earaches.
- To prevent the formation of disease-causing bacteria and algae that turns the pool water green and hazy, unfit for use.
- Repairs could be delayed or avoided when the pool is maintained well. The cost of maintenance of the pool is substantially reduced in this way. A maintained pool has a longer lifespan so that you will be able to use it for years.
- The aesthetic of a maintained pool is unmatched. It creates a vibe around your home where you can enjoy with your friends and family and even host parties. The opulent lifestyle that you desire in Dubai will be lived up when your pool is well-maintained.
Daily Pool Maintenance Checklist
Carrying out the following maintenance work daily can keep your swimming pool in the best condition:
1. Checking the water level
Dubai heat can evaporate the water off your pool really fast, so make sure that the water level is maintained in the pool.
2. Checking the important parts
Important parts like the pump and filter should be checked daily to make sure that you get the best swimming experience.
3. Covering the pool
Covering the pool when not in use is an important check point that should be done daily to make sure the water in the pool is in the best condition to be used.
Weekly Pool Maintenance Checklist
The weekly pool maintenance checklist is as follows:
1. Checking the chemicals
Checking the levels of chemicals in the pool is really important and should be done weekly. The PH and chlorine levels should be checked to make sure that the pool water is apt for use.
2. Putting the chemicals
The pool water should have an ideal PH level and alkalinity, therefore, you should add chemicals. Also, adding the chemicals prevents staining on the tiles of the pool.
3. Cleaning the deck
Yes, not just the pool itself but the pool deck should also be cleaned and maintained at least once a week to make sure that the unwanted things don’t pile up and lower the aesthetic appeal of the pool area.
Half-yearly Swimming Pool Cleaning Checklist
Every 6 months, your pool should be cleaned according to the following checklist:
1. Cleaning the tile for calcium buildup
Calcium buildup is normal but should be catered to every 6 months.
2. Cleaning the slide and diving boards
The diving boards and slides to the pool should be cleaned as well to make sure there are no algae formation over them.
3. Checking and cleaning the filters
The filters should be removed and deep cleaned so that they work properly and their efficiency is maintained.
4. Checking the bolts and tightening them
The ladder screws can get loose with time so it is important to check and tighten them every 6 months.
5. Checking and cleaning all the equipments
The cleaning equipment should be cleaned too or replaced in case they are worn out.
6. Testing the salt levels
For a saltwater pool, the level of salt in the water should be just right so it should be checked every 6 months.
Conclusion!
All of these checklists are quite tedious and could not be done all by yourself, however, you should follow these to make sure that you maintain your pool well. That is why taking the help of experts is advised.
