What types of maintenance does a pool require?

There are mainly 2 maintenance models that can be performed. The corrective maintenance that is performed when a fault or obstruction has been found to be corrected in the system, be it pumping, electrical, or operation, and preventive maintenance or also called routine.

Because we are faced with specialization equipment, which is customized for each pool based on the amount of water in it. The number of ornamental equipment that demands the greater capacity to the pumping system, and the internal regulations of each country. 
It is always advisable to ask your local specialist to structure a personalized maintenance program for your pool, which is as detailed as possible, and not unnecessarily complicated.

Routine maintenance will be very beneficial to keep the water always transparent and free of pollutants. This will also extend the life of the equipment and enhance the efficiency of cleaning chemicals.

On the other hand, corrective maintenance will be necessary every time a system fault is identified since the equipment is connected by a pipeline and they work together. So the obstruction of some could complicate the work of another and intensify the problem.

Why is the maintenance and disinfection of pool water important?

The water in the pool when in contact with people remains with body fluids, which react with chlorine, and through chemical compounds such as nitrogen, chloramines are formed. Chloramines cause a bad smell, irritation, other unpleasant problems such as the facilitation of the proliferation of pollutants.
