Did You Know...

DE filter manufactures recommend the filters be disassembled and cleaned every 6 months.

All natural stone and decking should be sealed when using a salt water system to prevent erosion.

Periodic backwashing will remove most dirt from a clean filter; however, over a period of time, grease, oils and scale can attack and build up on the elements. When this occurs, you should clean or replace your filter depending on the type of filter.

Too much combined chlorine in your pool causes the strong chlorine odor. When the combined chlorine level reaches 0.2 ppm or more, it is time to shock your water. Shocking will eliminate the odor.

pH should be 7.2-7.8 ppm. Correct pH level is critical for proper oxidation and to help prevent scale build up.

Swimming Pool Filter Cleaning And Maintenance

Your swimming pool filter system is responsible for removing debris and keeping your pool water clean and clear. The pool filter is the hardest worked piece of equipment of your pool, working 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to filter impurities so you can enjoy pure water. Because of this, it is extremely important that this system is regularly serviced. New Braunfels Pool Company's trained staff are able to inspect and maintain your pool filter system upon request. Pool filter systems should be serviced at least twice a year. If your pool filter system is due for cleaning and maintenance, please contact us.

Green Pools and 1x Cleanings

Green algae (or green pool) is a common problem for swimming pool owners. Green algae often appears as a greenish growth on the walls and floors of your pool, and can result in your pool water taking on a green tint, due to greenish organic material suspended in the water of your pool. This algae not only resides within your pool, but can also spread to you pool's pipes and pool equipment. Many pool owners have been frustrated when, after hours of scrubbing and the addition of the wrong type of chemicals they realize that a week later their pool is as green as it ever was. This ends up costing owners time and money. At New Braunfels Pool Company, we will cure your green pool problems the first time.
