Proper weekly pool cleaning and maintenance will keep the pool water thoroughly disinfected and the water quality at optimal levels at all times. Not only is pool maintenance an aesthetic issue, but it can also become a health issue if not maintained often enough. If pools are not well-kept, it can become a source of infections such as eye and ear infections, and itchy skin, among other potential issues. In order to avoid this, on a weekly basis, it is imperative that basic steps are performed to help keep your swimming pool clean throughout the year.
