Pool maintenance doesn't have to be a chore—and with the right supplies, it isn’t. The key is understanding what your pool needs before problems pop up. Whether you're dealing with leaves, low chlorine, pH imbalance, or a stubborn green tinge, the right combination of pool supplies and routine care makes all the difference.

Start with regular testing using a liquid kit or test strips to stay ahead of chemical changes. Add chlorine or salt as needed, balance the pH, and don't forget to clean filters and brushes regularly. Accessories like vacuum heads, nets, and telescopic poles help you stay on top of the mess with less effort.

It’s also worth noting that even painted surfaces around pools need occasional maintenance. Using the right outdoor paint and sealing products can prevent wear, reduce slipping, and improve your pool area’s appearance. Whether you're touching up paint, replacing fittings, or treating algae, smart pool care starts with the right gear.

What chemicals do I need for basic pool maintenance?

The core chemicals needed for basic pool maintenance include chlorine (or another sanitiser), pH increaser and decreaser, alkalinity balancer, and cyanuric acid (stabiliser). These work together to sanitise the water, balance acidity, and protect chlorine from sun damage. You may also need calcium hardness increaser to protect pool surfaces and equipment. Keeping these chemicals in balance helps prevent cloudy water, algae growth, and corrosion of metal parts. Use a test kit weekly to check your levels and adjust as needed for clean, safe swimming conditions.

How often should I test my pool water?

You should test your pool water at least once a week, though during summer or heavy use, testing two to three times a week is ideal. Monitoring chlorine, pH, and alkalinity helps you catch imbalances early, saving you time and money on major fixes later. For saltwater pools, it’s also important to test the salt level monthly and clean the chlorinator cell as needed. Automated systems are helpful, but manual testing ensures accuracy—especially after storms, pool parties, or topping up with fresh water.

Can I use household products instead of pool chemicals?

While some household products may seem like a shortcut, they’re not recommended for long-term pool care. For example, baking soda can raise alkalinity, and bleach contains chlorine, but neither provides the right concentration or stability for safe pool maintenance. Professional-grade pool chemicals are specially formulated for consistent results, and they include stabilisers that prevent sun breakdown, scale inhibitors, and anti-algae properties. Using non-pool products may lead to inconsistent results, damage to your pool surface or equipment, and safety risks for swimmers.
