To maintain a properly balanced and safe swimming pool, a few key chemicals are essential. Firstly, chlorine or other sanitizers are crucial for disinfecting the water and killing bacteria, algae, and other contaminants. Stabilizer or cyanuric acid helps to protect chlorine from being rapidly depleted by the sun's UV rays. pH balancers like pH increaser or decreaser are necessary to maintain a healthy pH level between 7.2 and 7.6, ensuring swimmer comfort and preventing corrosion or scaling. Alkalinity increaser helps stabilize the pH levels and avoid fluctuations. Shock treatments (chlorine-based or non-chlorine oxidizers) are used to address water clarity issues or heavy contamination. Lastly, algaecides can be used to prevent or treat algae growth. Remember, regular testing and adjustment of chemical levels are crucial for optimal pool maintenance.
