Monsoon season is almost here and it is time to do all we can to prevent issues with your pool. Algae blooms can come at anytime, but are more common during the Monsoon storms. The reason for this is that algae needs food and that food is provided more readily during numerous storms. With the blowing wind and rain, organic matter is being introduced to your pool on a nearly daily basis and on some occasions many times a day. This raises the levels of phosphates in your pool and increases the demand on your sanitizer. Every pool has organic matter naturally: swimmers, soap from swimsuits, pets, leaves, dirt, rain water are all forms of just some of the phosphates that are introduced to your pool regularly. But with the heat of the summer, along with this higher phosphate level, you are creating a prime situation for a algae party in your pool. Keep your swimming pool in great shape all Summer long with one of our weekly swimming pool maintenance programs. Learn more at the link below:
