From relaxing on hot summer days to enjoying time with family and friends, a swimming pool is a fantastic investment. However, there is work that needs to be done to keep your unit in excellent condition. Fortunately, there are many tools that make this process convenient. Here are three pool supplies that will make your pool ownership more enjoyable.

What Do I Need to Maintain My Pool?

1. Filter

A filter is an absolute necessity when you own a pool. The tool removes dirt, debris, and grime from the water to maintain your unit's water quality. There are a few different styles of filter systems, but sand filters are quickly becoming the most popular for both above- and in-ground pool systems thanks to their efficiency, life span, and low-maintenance requirements.

2. Automatic Chlorinator

poolAs a pool owner, you know you need chlorine to combat microorganisms that find their way into the system. While the chemicals will be initially balanced by your pool contractor during the spring opening service, more chlorine needs to be added throughout the season to avoid contamination. An automatic chlorinator adds the chemical as needed directly into the pool, and unlike using pucks in your skimmer basket, it's less likely to cause corrosion in the filter unit.

3. Vacuum

This handy little machine automatically cleans the surface, walls, and floor of your pool to remove algae and waste. Daily vacuuming not only makes year-end closing easier, but it also creates a healthy, safe environment for your family and friends to enjoy. There are a few different vacuum variations available for above and in-ground pools; contact your pool contractor for a suggestion.
