Cloudy pool water is caused by many factors. These factors may) (balance water chemistry, pH, improper methods), mechanical (pool-filter system) or environmental (water source, excessive rainfall, heavy use. Pool Owners often try to treat the symptoms but not the cause turbid water we have all the things that can help you find the problem. Let us examine the reasons for swimming pool water cloudy, so that we can seeTreatments and cures.
Before diving into the game before putting the muddy water to the test. Pool water cloudy in the eye of the beholder. Rain can mean: Dull – no shine, the pool water easily. Foggy – simply is not clear how it is normally. Unknown – You can use the bottom of the pool when it is difficult. Opaque – the word says it all!
Chemical causes
Many pool owners quickly blame "bad chemicals", so begin. Here Some of the factors and their contribution to the problem muddy water. Water chemistry can contribute to cloudy or muddy water – when the pH is high (above 7.8) and / or total alkalinity (TA) is high (greater than 200 ppm) and / or calcium hardness (CH) is high (greater to 400 ppm). PH and TA are high the water would be boring or flat, and the chlorine reacts slowly loses its ability to kill and control bacteria and algae. Now there have been the growth of algae – another reason to muddy> Water pool. CH High not become a problem until the water warms above 85 degrees F, then a "quiet" mode, should not leave. Maintain a good balance of pool water with the following parameters:) pH – 7,2-7,6 (all the pools total alkalinity – 80-120 ppm (concrete) or 120 to 150 ppm (vinyl coating), the hardness of calcium 200-300 ppm (concrete) or 175 – 250 ppm (vinyl).
Other chemicals or chemical-based reasons for cloudy pool water will be a shocking lack of regularchemicals for periodic cleaning of the filter, poor maintenance levels Sanitizer, the lack of a routine chemical maintenance. Regular weekly or biweekly shocking the pool of AIDS in an oxidant filterable swimmer waste, such as body oil, lotion, urine, hair gel, sweat, etc. We find that the biggest mistake people make in their normal treatment, it is shocking to pool often enough or not enough (and not) with the right amount of shock the pool. Proper shockingcontributes to "rejuvenate" the chlorine and knock-out early bloom of algae. If you have a pool party with lots of swimmers are required to consider shocking the pool the day before (for the construction of chlorine to form a cushion against possible depletion of chlorine) and immediately after the party (shake and oxidizes everything that was presented in the pool during the party – if your guests are not in the bathroom, it was the beer and soda, go tosomewhere). With a stroke of calcium hypochlorite which Bioguard Burn Out Extreme is preferable, because the product has come to do their job, then exit. Shock monopersulfate potassium Oxysheen this good work to break down chloramines (combined) of chlorine, but should not be used exclusively.
Mechanical factors
If the chemistry is good and the pool is properly shocked and anti-algae each have 1 to 2 weeks, so it is necessary to seemechanical reasons. The mechanism that help to filter water from murky pool size would be inadequate (too small), incorrect pump and motor size (too small or too big, pump PS), insufficient time filtering, poor circulation, improper maintenance (vacuuming and cleaning). I can tell story after story, when I entered the courtyard of a client to help solve them, a problem only to find the pool filter turned off or not connected properly. If simpleAdjustments are made, the pool water is ready in less than 24 hours. We see some points of principle.
The pool filter system must operate a minimum of 8-10 hours include day, every day from opening. Problems If the pool water cloudy or others have been prepared on a stable operation of the filter, the problem is solved until use. If the filter proper size (even a little 'higher is better), so every day from 8 to 10 hours well. On the other hand, is too high the pump can be "harmful" for filtering. If the results are too large, you can blow dirt and can be anything you want, just filtered through the filter (especially sand filters). If you are sure about 2-speed pumps that "high" run-time speed is at least 6 hours per day PLUS and additional 12 to 18 hours at a low rate "set).
Imagine using an automatic pool cleaner. You end up with better circulation, cleaner> Pool surfaces and less work.
Other mechanical factors are equally important. Regular vacuuming and cleaning help out with the general circulation by the movement of water. Hold directional "Eye" fell in filtered water into the depth of the pool of strength, and, therefore, support the movement of water breaking the dead spots. Too frequent backwashing filter, time filter media is not enough to do their best cleaning results – a dirt particles finer filter. Onemechanical cause of the final pool of muddy water, lack of use. Actively used pools are always in a better position in circulation and filtration. Even if the water is cloudy (until the water) in chemical equilibrium, the use of the pool!
For environmental reasons
Remember that what is out there in the world, finally in the pool and affect the clarity of water. Pollen, dust, dirt, leaves, make-up water, bird droppings (forgotten them, right?), Rain,local yards, etc. can have an effect on your pool. Each of these offenders should be treated differently. Pollen, dust and other fine particles can be treated with a water separator as Bioguard Polysheen Blue. Coagulants work well in difficult situations, to unify the regulation of soil particles, and suck all the waste. Using a skimmer skimmer sock it to fine dust, pollen, or it may be too thin to remove the sand filter.
LeavesSchwimmer, make-up water, creating mud from an application of chlorine. Shocking the pool is necessary. Make-up water can lead to water chemistry that you can not adjust the pH, TA and CH mention the possible addition of heavy metals, all of this, or in muddy water.
Concluding remarks
As you can see, there are 1 or 2 reasons for swimming pool water cloudy.'s Usually a combination of factors. Some of them are not even out of the pool itself, thebest solution for the pool of muddy water is to prevent chemical cleaning with a good, regular maintenance program. Approximately 30 to 60 minutes per week is all you need. If and when the pool water is cloudy, do not start with sedimentation or flakes. Learn the real cause. See all factors.
