Swimming pool Chlorine is beneficial to the pool water because it eliminates bacterias and algae. Low chlorine level may result in green and cloudy water. We don't want that! Chlorine level is having a hard time maintaining its appropriate level when exposed to direct sunlight or heat. It is important to watch out for your chlorine level to maintain the clarity and cleanliness of the swimming pool for an excellent performance.

During summertime, your pool water is losing chlorine due to high temperatures. Bacteria like warm water the most and they often grow during these seasons that would cause more chlorine loss. As bacteria arises, the chlorine is up to fight it back. Pool water loses chlorine as a result. So to maintain an appropriate level of chlorine to your pool, we strongly recommend considering adding more chlorine during summer.

Direct exposure to sunlight is a different approach. As the ultraviolet rays directly hit your pool water, chlorine is discharged, as it evaporates into the air. This will cause you more chlorine loss. You are actually losing 90% of your swimming pools chlorine in just a few hours during the brightest of the sunny day. To prevent this loss, use a chemical stabilizer and add chlorine every day.

It is understandable that it is really hard to maintain the appropriate level of pool water. Always remember to test the chlorine level and to initiate Shock Treatment when needed.
