Easy and Effective Tips from the Best
Pool Contractor in Dubai
Maintaining a pool in Dubai's hot climate can be a challenge, but with a few smart DIY
maintenance hacks, you can keep your pool pristine and inviting. As the best swimming pool
contractor in Dubai, we at [Your Pool Company Name] understand the importance of regular
upkeep to ensure your pool remains a refreshing oasis. Here are some easy and effective tips for
maintaining your pool yourself.
Skim and Brush Regularly

Tip: Skim the surface of your pool daily and brush the walls and floor weekly.
Why: Regular skimming removes leaves, debris, and insects, preventing them from sinking and
causing stains or clogs. Brushing helps prevent algae buildup and keeps the pool surfaces clean.
How: Use a long-handled skimmer to remove surface debris and a pool brush to scrub the walls,
steps, and floor. Focus on areas with poor water circulation, such as corners and steps.
Maintain Proper Water Chemistry
Tip: Test your pool water at least twice a week and adjust chemicals as needed.
Why: Balanced water chemistry prevents algae growth, protects pool surfaces and equipment,
and ensures a safe swimming environment.
How: Use a reliable pool test kit to check pH, chlorine, alkalinity, and calcium hardness levels.
Adjust the chemicals based on the test results, aiming for a pH level of 7.2-7.8, chlorine levels of
1-3 ppm, alkalinity between 80-120 ppm, and calcium hardness of 200-400 ppm.
Clean the Pool Filter

Tip: Clean your pool filter regularly to maintain optimal filtration.
Why: A clean filter improves water circulation, reduces strain on the pump, and ensures clearer
water.
How: Depending on your filter type (sand, cartridge, or DE), follow the manufacturer's
instructions for cleaning. For sand filters, backwash when the pressure gauge increases by 8-10
psi. For cartridge filters, remove and hose down the cartridges. For DE filters, backwash and add
new DE powder.
Use Baking Soda for Algae Control

Tip: Use baking soda to scrub away algae.
Why: Baking soda is a gentle and effective way to remove algae without damaging pool
surfaces.
How: Sprinkle baking soda directly on algae spots and scrub with a pool brush. Baking soda
raises the pH slightly and acts as a mild abrasive, helping to remove algae without harsh
chemicals.
Optimize Your Pool's Circulation

Tip: Run your pool pump for at least 8-12 hours a day.
Why: Good circulation helps distribute chemicals evenly, prevents algae growth, and keeps the
water clear.
How: Set a timer to ensure your pool pump runs during peak times of the day. Angle your jets
downward to promote better circulation and reduce the likelihood of stagnant areas.
DIY Pool Vacuum with a Garden Hose
Tip: Create a simple pool vacuum using a garden hose and a vacuum bag.
Why: This hack helps you clean the pool floor without a professional vacuum.
How: Attach a vacuum bag to one end of a garden hose and submerge it in the pool. Suck the
other end of the hose to fill it with water and create suction, then guide the hose over the pool
floor to collect debris in the vacuum bag.
Keep an Eye on Water Levels

Tip: Maintain your pool's water level halfway up the skimmer.
Why: Proper water levels ensure your pump and skimmer work efficiently and prevent damage
to the equipment.
How: If levels are low, add water with a garden hose, and if they are too high after heavy rain,
remove excess water with a submersible pump or by using the waste setting on your pool filter.
