Prepare Your Pool For Storm Season
Summer storms can wreak havoc on your pool’s water balance and overall maintenance, but with a little preparation, you can minimise the damage. Here are some practical tips to protect your pool during storm season:
Why Keeping Your Pool Full Matters
A full pool might seem counterintuitive, but it actually helps maintain structural integrity. Low water levels during a storm can lead to significant damage, so it’s essential to keep the water at an optimal level.
Secure Your Pool Area
Unsecured items like furniture, toys, and tools can turn into projectiles during a storm. Packing them away not only keeps your pool area safe but also protects your pool from damage.
Protect Electrical Components
Storms often bring power surges that can damage your pool’s electrical equipment. To prevent this, unplug your pump, chlorinator, and pool lights before the storm hits.
Use Pool Chemicals to Your Advantage
Adding chlorine balancer and algaecide to your pool water helps to combat the extra pollutants storms bring. These chemicals work to keep your pool water clean and clear even during rough weather.
