We Care About Your Safety
Pool chemicals can be very strong, but so can the bacteria and other organisms they are designed to keep in check. Without the proper balance, one of these components will wreak havoc on anything you put in the pool.
Pool Water Balancing
A "balanced" swimming pool means keeping the five basic pool water components (total alkalinity, pH, calcium hardness, stabilizer, and total dissolved solids) within their proper levels. These components work together to help the sanitizer work more effectively.
Sanitizing
The most efficient way to sanitize your pool and keep swimmers safe is with chlorine. Bacteria from swimmers' bodies, rain, debris or animals can enter and contaminate pool water. All of these are reasons for using chlorine or another sanitizer.
What happens if your pool water is not balanced
Simply put, if your pool water is too acidic it can corrode your pool equipment, cause etching on surface materials and cause skin, eye and nose irritations on swimmers. If your pool water is too alkaline, it can cause scaling on your pool’s surface and plumbing equipment, and can cloud the pool water. In addition, both high acidity and high alkalinity will alter the effectiveness of your chlorine, which will clearly disrupt your pool’s disinfecting processes.

​
On the pH scale, zero indicates extreme acidity and 14 indicates extreme alkalinity. Where 7 indicates a neutral state. We recommend that you aim to keep your pool pH between a 7.2 and 7.8.
