3 Reasons Why Your Pool Water Is Cloudy
A cloudy swimming pool can turn even the most luxurious and inviting pool into something that nobody wants to swim in. Unfortunately cloudiness in pools is relatively common. The good news is that the reason for the cloudiness is typically easy to diagnose or at least narrow down, and if you can’t figure it out on your own a pool expert in Navarre will be able to easily diagnose and treat it for you. If you are experiencing cloudiness in your pool, below are three possible reasons why!
Bad Filter
People who use a professional for pool maintenance and repairs like Splash Pools don’t have to worry about cloudiness due to a bad filter because filter maintenance is a main concern. However, if your filter has stopped working or if you are not running it for the recommended time every day (8-10 hours depending on the size of your pool) your water will get cloudy! Your pool water needs to be cleaned and filtered on a daily basis and not doing so is a recipe for murky water. To ease the stress of pool maintenance, trust the experts of Splash Pools to keep your water clear.
Pool Chemicals
If your pool chemicals aren’t balanced, it can create cloudiness within the water. Things like high alkalinity, too much or too little of chlorine or other sanitizers, or overly high pH levels could be to blame. If you don’t have the right chemical balance in your pool excess particles can multiply and congregate in the water creating the cloudy appearance. As you can see, a lot goes into the maintenance and upkeep of a pool. Let us handle your swimming pool needs and take the stress off your shoulders.
Environment
Sometimes the reason behind the cloudiness of your pool water is environmental. If you talk to a swimming pool maintenance company like Splash Pools, we will tell you that as a pool owner you are going to have to constantly clean the surrounding environment of your pool for of any debris that could potentially fall into the pool or has already fallen into the pool. Sometimes the environmental issue causing your pool cloudiness might not even be under your control. Tree and lawn debris or excessive amounts of pollen and dust from the air can also contaminate your pool, and your options for stopping those things are limited.
Owning a swimming pool means occasionally having to address common pool problems like water cloudiness. If you don’t want to have to keep up with these problems yourself you can always hire Navarre Pool Service to assist you. Keeping the above contributing factors in mind can help you respond accordingly when cloudiness strikes your pool.
