twice per week
Secondly, how do you maintain chlorine in a pool?
Twice a week:
- Use test strips or a test kit to check and maintain your pool water balance. Keep your pH levels between 7.4 – 7.6.
- Test and maintain the free available chlorine level at 1.0 – 3.0 ppm.
- Empty the skimmer basket and skim leaves, insects and other floating debris from the pool surface.
Subsequently, how often should I put Clorox in my pool? Chlorine has a low pH level, and in order to maintain your pool water’s clarity and balance, shocking weekly will allow you to quickly raise the chlorine level, which will rid the pool of contaminants, without lowering the water’s pH levels.
Keeping this in view, should I shock my pool every week?
How Often Should I Shock My Pool? Shocking your pool regularly will help to keep the water clean and free of contaminants. You should aim to shock your pool about once a week, with the additional shock after heavy use. Some tell-tale signs that your pool needs to be shocked are cloudy, foamy, green, or odourous water.
