From tools to make your pool cleaning easier and more stress free to pool equipment that is necessary to keep it functioning and fully operational here are some pool components that you may want to talk with your pool contractor about.
The pool filters: The pool filters help keep the water clean and free of bacteria. Your pool contractor can show you how gauge whether they are in top operating shape when he pays his next service visit.
The filtering system: This encompasses all of the components of the filter. It pushes and pulls the water throughout the pool and through the filter itself to clean and purify the water.
The pool pump: Consider the pump the “heart” of your swimming pool It is the mechanism that pumps the water throughout and also helps to carry and distribute the chemicals in the water.
The pool valves: Your swimming pool is a complex working of pumps and valves and plumbing. The valves are items that the pool contractor will check, tighten and lubricate during his visits, but you should be aware of where the valves are, what they do and what to look for if there is a problem in your pool, like a leak.
Your pool cover: Many people feel that a swimming pool cover is an option or an add on accessory but pool service contractors feel that a pool cover is a crucial component in your overall swimming pool structure. Why? Because a pool cover can help slow down the effects of evaporation, keep dirt and debris from the water, alleviate the need for chemicals and provides a safety barrier for any children or pets in the household.

Your pool contractor will explain the workings of these components and that will make it easy for you to determine if you’re in need of any repairs on them in order to keep your pool clean and running efficiently.
