The weather will be beginning to cool down a little before long, and this means that summer is starting to come to a close. This also means that people will spend less time in their swimming pools. Now, even though less swimming will be done during the fall, that doesn’t mean your pool can be ignored all season long. In fact, there are a few different pool maintenance tasks that must get done during fall.
Keep Your Pool Clean
Now that your pool won’t be getting used as much, this is the perfect time to get it cleaned up. Start by taking any objects, such as pool toys, out of your swimming pool. Then, a pool vacuum can be used to get rid of lingering dirt and debris. You can also clean the surrounding pool deck so that your yard is nice and presentable.
Clean the Pool Filter
The pool filter works tirelessly to keep your pool water clean while you’re swimming. With the start of fall, one of your pool maintenance tasks should be to clean that filter. The fall season brings falling foliage, among other types of debris, not to mention the dropping temperatures. Cleaning out the filter now keeps it from getting overwhelmed later on.
Adjust Your Usage of Pool Chemicals
When air temperature drops, so too does the temperature of your pool water. When pool water is at a lower temperature, you don’t need as many pool chemicals in the water. That’s why, as fall approaches, you want to keep a close eye on the pH level of your pool water and adjust your chemical usage to keep your pH at an ideal level.
