The most important part of Risk Management
Consulting is watching and maintaining the right
water chemistry. The first step of the method is
to frequently take a look at the water. During
the summer months, this should be done either
daily or each different day. In the winter you'll
probably get by with once every week. If you
maintain a regular schedule of testing the water
and adjusting the chemical balance accordingly
it should need a smallest quantity of your time.
However if you neglect the job, you run the risk
of algae growth and doable harm to your pool and
instrumentation.

Following basics will facilitate you avoid tough
cleaning jobs and costly repairs.
  • Chlorine.
  • PH.
  • Total Alkalinity.
  • Calcium Hardness.
  • Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid).

Chlorine
  • This is the one everyone is aware of. Chlorine is
    the chemical that sanitizes the water, kills
    bacteria, and prevents algae growth. Pool
    chemistry is measured in parts per million
    gallons of water safety activities, which you may
    see abbreviated as (PPM).
  • The desired chlorine vary is 0.5 to 3.0 PPM. If
    levels drop below this range you run the risk of
    stained, murky water and algae growth.

5
PH
This is the acidity level of the water. When
testing the pH scale level the acceptable vary is
7.2 to 7.6 PPM. PH could be the foremost vital
component of pool water chemistry due to it's
impact on the opposite components and therefore
the potential harm it will cause. Low PH will
cause high acidity of the water ensuing in
corrosion of metal parts, etching of plaster, and
staining.

Total Alkalinity
In technical terms is a measure of the waters
ability to neutralize or dissolve the chemical
element ions in acid. Basically, having the
desired alkaline level helps management
fluctuations in pH scale once chemicals are
extra. The desired Total Alkalinity level is
between 80 and 120 PPM. Low levels will cause
forceful fluctuations in pH scale, which will be
damaging to pool instrumentation. Higher levels
make it tough to modify pH scale and render
element less effective.
8
Calcium Hardness
This is the measure of dissolved calcium in the
water. The desired levels are between 250 and 500
PPM. Maintaining the desired levels is important
for the protection and life of the plaster. Lower
levels will cause calcium to leach from the
plaster causing pitting and shortening the
lifespan of the surface. High levels may cause
scaling and cloudy water.
9
Stabilizer (Cyanuric Acid)
Chlorine molecules are unstable and exposure to
daylight and heat can cause the to dissolve
quickly lowering the quantity of free chlorine.
Adding cyanuric acid stabilizes the molecules,
slowing the dissipation of the chlorine. In other
words, adding stabilizer reduces the amount and
frequency of adding chlorine to the pool. Some
chlorine tablets ar stable, so you might have
already got some level of acid. The desired level
is between 30 and 50 PPM. Cyanuric acid should be
intercalary in tiny amounts to avoid olympian
fifty PPM. Extremely high levels will cause a
chlorine lock, which prevents the chlorine from
doing it's job, causing the water to cloud or
become stained.
