With the right swimming pool equipment, supplies and regular maintenance, keeping your pool clean, clear, and sparkling is simple. At Billabong Pool Service and Supply, we’ve been the trusted swimming pool shop and provider of maintenance and repair services on the Sunshine Coast for over 40 years. Here are our top tips for keeping your pool in top condition. 

Looking After Your Pool Filter

Your pool filter works hard around the clock, constantly circulating water and filtering out tiny debris. If water flow is slowed by debris, pressure gauges at the filter inlet and outlet let you know about the level of blockage inside. It’s important to regularly empty your filters and backwash as required, if you have a sand filter, to prevent damage and unnecessary wear and tear. 

Keep it Clean with a Dolphin Pool Cleaner

Your pool should be vacuumed approximately once a week depending on how often you use it, to make sure the water is free of debris. Regular vacuuming reduces the amount of chemicals required to maintain well-balanced, hygienic water. 

A Dolphin pool cleaner makes this easy. These nifty robots use smart navigation technology to clean each area of the pool once, sucking up debris while scrubbing the pool floor and walls to remove grime.

Maintaining Water Balance

Testing your pool water at least once a week is another essential aspect of pool maintenance. Regular testing lets you know when you need to add more chemicals, which type of chemicals to add and how much to add, to eliminate bacteria and prevent algae growth. 

Servicing Swimming Pool Equipment

Pool equipment and hardware is subject to a lot of wear and tear over time. This includes pumps, electric motors, salt chlorinators, heaters, chemical controllers, dosing pumps, control modules, pool lights and more. Swimming pool servicing and maintenance can help avoid equipment failure that leads to expensive repairs and replacements.
