What are the Common Mistakes Made While
Maintaining Salt Water Swimming Pools?
2
A salt water swimming pool differs from a normal
swimming pool in certain aspects and one of these
is maintenance.
3
When it comes to maintaining a salt water
swimming pool there are many misconceptions held
by people.
4
This often leads to mistakes being committed when
it comes to taking care of salt water swimming
pools.
5
Here, we will discuss the common mistakes made by
people while maintaining their salt water
swimming pool.
6
Issues Related to Chlorine
7
A common misconception prevalent among
individuals is that salt water swimming pool
doesnt contain any chlorine.
8
This is wrong because when you add salt to the
water, your salt water generator uses this
dissolved salt to create chlorine.
9
The problem arises when people add chlorine to
the water and dont test the free chlorine level
of their water.
10
You should test the water for free chlorine level
balance the free chlorine level which will keep
the water sanitized.
11
Keeping a Tab on the pH Levels
2022
12
The pH level of both a salt water pool and a
traditional pool will differ vastly.
13
The pH level of your salt water swimming pool
will run higher than that of a traditional pool.
14
However, remember that pH levels higher than 7.6
can cause skin irritation and burning eyes.
15
This is why it is recommended that you must keep
a tab on the pH level of your salt water swimming
pool.
16
Adding Too Much Salt
17
One of the common mistakes made by most
individuals owning a salt water swimming pool is
adding too much salt.
18
Salt doesnt evaporate when it is added to
water it stays there and gets continuously
recirculated through the salt water generator.
19
Adding too much salt is going to disturb the
chemical balance of your water.
20
The salinity level of your swimming pool water
can only be brought down through rain, or
splashing out, or manually.
21
Not Testing Alkalinity
2022
22
The alkalinity of the water is very important
because it helps in stabilizing the pH of your
water.
23
The alkalinity levels of your salt water pool
should be between 100 to 150 ppm.
24
However, your pH levels will increase gradually
when running the salt water generator.
25
This means that your alkalinity will lose its
importance in the long run and might go below 100
ppm.
26
The above-discussed factors are some of the
common mistakes made by people while maintaining
their salt water pools.
