Countrywide Pools Northam 3 Sanitising Your Pool Many people believe that, as long as your pool water is clear it is clean and Regular testing and balancing of your pool water requires no treatment. However, is critical and takes very little time. even crystal-clear water can harbour potentially harmful bacteria. CHLORINE Chlorine is the most commonly used water Untreated or improperly treated pool sanitiser in the world. It is a highly effective water can be a health risk. Chemically product and comes in the following forms: balanced and sanitized water, on the other hand, will provide a healthy Calcium Hypochlorite (65% active granular chlorine) visually appealing environment for Sodium Hypochlorite (10-15% active liquid chlorine) you and your family.

This is the level of chlorine in the pool water that is ready to fight bacteria. We recommend conducting this test daily before It is critical to test your pool water re-dosing or when a heavy bather load is expected. regularly with a pool shop professional. At Countrywide Pools Weekly Testing we offer our customers complimentary water testing and comprehensive advice on keeping pH Level – This test tells you whether your water is your water balanced. too acidic or too alkaline. To achieve the correct balance, we recommend testing the pH weekly during the swimming season.

It can Calcium Hardness also make it increasingly difficult to clarify the pool water. Calcium hardness is a measurement of dissolved calcium in the water. Low calcium hardness can be very damaging because it increases the “aggressiveness” of the water. This can result in etching of the cement based pool surface or causing the tile grout to dissolve. The desired range is 80 to 500 ppm according to Australian Standards 3633. A reputable pool company will provide you with the specific requirements for your pool finish, water supply and equipment at the handover. 8 Water Balance Safe Chemical Handling Never mix chemicals! This could lead to a violent reaction or explosion, as well as the production of toxic fumes. Even different chlorine can react violently when mixed together. It is recommended that you use a different bucket for diluting different chemicals. When transporting chemicals in your vehicle, do so in a manner that prevents them from mixing in the event of a spillage or accident. Chemicals should be stored in this way also; that is so that accidental breakage or leakage does not cause the chemicals to mix with each other or with other stored substances. Emptying Your Pool As a general rule, swimming pools should not require emptying. If you think that your pool needs to be emptied for any reason, please consult with one of our team at Countrywide Pools before doing so.

  • Section 5 – Water Quality and Testing
    SECTION 5 – WATER QUALITY AND TESTING Maintaining water quality is a fundamental role in operating an aquatic facility. The objectives of an operator should be to: • Ensure the water is properly disinfected at all times, to prevent transmission of infectious diseases, • Achieve maximum patron comfort, and • Maximise longevity of the facility structure. Whenever an aquatic facility is available for use, the water needs to contain an adequate level of a chemical that can destroy micro-organisms. By far the most common chemical used for disinfection is chlorine. This material has the advantages of being a relatively low cost, highly effective disinfectant that is readily available. However, chlorine is also a highly reactive chemical, which non-selectively combines with nitrogen-rich pollutants in the water, to produce unwanted chemicals known as chloramines. These give the water a characteristic pungent chlorine-like smell, and irritate the eyes and skin of patrons. Chloramines are also known to be less effective disinfectants than free chlorine. High concentrations of chloramines reduce the overall effectiveness of the chlorination process. The chloramine problem is generally worse in heavily patronised facilities, where patrons add large amounts of urea and other nitrogen-rich bodily wastes to the water. A number of technologies are now available to reduce the levels of chloramines in water. Examples include the use of ozone gas, ultraviolet light irradiation, and the addition of non-chlorine oxidising chemicals to the water. The use of these technologies should be considered for indoor aquatic facilities with significant bather numbers. Chlorine also undergoes significant degradation when exposed to sunlight.

  • Pool Chemical Information
    Pool Chemical Information Acid o Acid is used mainly on salt pools to lower the pH. When the pH and alkalinity are out of balance, the chlorine is significantly less effective. The pH should be balanced between 7.4-7.6. Chlorinating with a salt water chlorinator produces a high pH (11.8). Without a weekly dose of Acid, salt systems will increase the pH to 7.8-8.2 or greater. A high pH can cause the pool to scale, and the chlorine would be locked up by the basicity. Without the use of Acid the pH can potentially ruin the salt cell in a few months. Algaecide o Algae are a microscopic single cell plants. While they are not directly harmful or toxic, they are unattractive in swimming pools since they discolour the water, usually green, which is unpleasant for swimmers. The vinyl can also become slippery if algae are stuck to it. As they are plants, they bloom in the same conditions as plants do. They require nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. They also like sunlight as it is essential for photosynthesis. This is where chlorophyll, which causes the green colour, utilises light energy and converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds essential for growth while releasing oxygen. Nitrogen is usually introduced into the water by bather contamination. Algaecide is the strongest available chemical we have, in conjunction with granular chlorine, to fight against algae break outs. This product can be used as a weekly preventive measure or as a concentrated dose to remove visible algae. There are more concentrated and less concentrated forms of the product depending on situation.

  • The Chemistry Involved in Maintaining a Saltwater Pool
    Joel Johnson, Yr 12, Chemistry ERT 3.1 Final, 11/4/16 Page 1 of 16 The Chemistry Involved in Maintaining a Saltwater Pool Introduction Although many people have chosen to switch to a saltwater pool, under the impression that they are maintenance free, this is not the case. Despite the fact that equilibria reactions in the pool minimise the amount of maintenance required, chemicals still need to be added regularly to keep the pool clean and hygienic. This report outlines the chemicals and equipment necessary to maintain a saltwater pool, and examines the various chemical reactions that occur in the pool. Alternative sanitisation methods and the amount of each chemical required to set up a new saltwater pool are also discussed. Discussion Chemicals and Equipment Required to Maintain a Saltwater Pool It is essential to maintain appropriate levels of various chemicals in a pool in order to kill pathogens and maintain chemical balance. One of the most important chemicals in a pool system is hypochlorous acid, which is a powerful disinfectant. In a saltwater pool, the chlorine generator converts chloride ions into chlorine gas, which in turn forms hypochlorous acid when it dissolves. The chlorine generator needs a relatively high concentration of chloride ions to operate, so a large amount of sodium chloride (NaCl) is initially added to the pool. After this, sodium chloride only needs to be added occasionally, as the chloride is recycled within the pool system. Hypochlorous acid is rapidly broken down by UV radiation, so the stabiliser isocyanuric acid (C3H3N3O3) is used to reduce the effects of sunlight.
