4 Tips for the Maintenance of Above Ground Swimming Pools

There are a number of reasons why you might want to go with a swimming pool rather than an inground pool. Whether you choose this type of pool because of budget or the need for portability, above ground swimming pools are a great choice for many families.

Here are a few tips about maintaining above ground swimming pools that might help.

  1. Filtering: Be sure that you run the pump long enough to filter the water properly. If you have a two-speed motor that you can run on low, you can safely run it 24 hours a day. Otherwise, be sure to run the pump at least 8 hours and preferably 12 hours, especially during the summer. Be sure to check the filter pressure often to be sure it is working correctly.
  2. Water Level: Above ground swimming pools cannot operate efficiently and you could damage the equipment if you let the water level fall below the recommended line. Make it a point to inspect the water level at least twice a week or even more often during the heat of summer in Polk and Hillsborough County, or anywhere in Central Florida, when evaporation is at its highest.
  3. Skim: Be sure to skim off any floating debris as often as possible. It is much easier to clean it off the top then to get it removed after it sinks. Furthermore, leaves and other things can upset the balance of your water chemicals and lead to an algae bloom.
  4. Check Chemicals and Adjust: It is always easier to keep the water in above ground swimming pools in balance than it is to try to correct it when it goes way out of balance. Never let anyone swim in your pool if the water hasn’t been recently tested, as it can be dangerous.

Getting the Most Out of Your Pool with Swimming Pool Supplies

Anything that you can do to get more enjoyment out of your swimming pool is a wonderful thing. You want swimming pool supplies and accessories that make your maintenance job easier. The kids want pool toys. Everyone wants a nice lounger. All of these make owning a pool that much better.

  • Pool Toys: There are more pool toys available now than ever before, and they aren’t all just for kids. From inflatables to the ever-popular “noodles”, adding a variety of pool toys to your swimming pool supplies list pretty much ensures nobody in your family will become quickly bored – maybe even your dog will have fun! Water sports pool toys are fun for all ages.
  • Loungers: Relaxing on the water in a lounger with a cold drink in hand is a tiny bit of heaven. There are types that have you floating entirely above the water and others in which you are partially submerged. There are foam type and inflatable type. With so many choices, everyone in your family can choose their favorite.
  • Maintenance: Taking care of your pool will be much easier thanks to some of the newer swimming pool supplies on the market. One suggestion is a skimmer bag on a telescoping rod, which not only holds a good amount of debris, but can also reach far across the pool, so it takes less time to skim the water.
  • Miscellaneous: Don’t forget to add the miscellaneous stuff on your swimming pool supplies list, including a reliable floating thermometer and floating color lights for ambiance at night.

If you need swimming pool supplies, you’ll find exactly what you are looking for at Unique Pools Spas Patio N More in Lakeland, FL. We serve Polk and Hillsborough Counties, as well as all of Central Florida.
