Weekly Maintenance Checklist
A Simple Routine for a Seamless Swim Experience
Skim the Surface
Remove leaves, bugs, and debris from the water’s surface using a skimmer net. Clear baskets in skimmers and pumps to maintain flow.
Brush and Vacuum
Brush pool walls, steps, and tile lines to prevent algae buildup. Follow with vacuuming or activate your robotic cleaner for a spotless finish.
Test and Balance Water
Check chlorine or salt levels, pH, alkalinity, and calcium hardness. Keep readings in recommended ranges to protect swimmers and surfaces.
Inspect Circulation and Filtration
Confirm your pump and filter are running smoothly. Rinse or backwash filters if pressure has increased. Proper flow ensures effective sanitation.
Monitor Water Level
Top off if it’s below the skimmer intake—low water can damage your pump.
Keep a Maintenance Log
Track chemical adjustments, filter cleanings, and any service notes. Staying organized helps spot patterns and prevent issues early.
