What about PH? You have heard that it
affects the way your pool feels...
Pool water pH
The pH is one of the most important
factors in pool water balance and it
should be tested and corrected at least
every week. pH is the measure of how
acid/ alkaline the swimming pool water
is. A pH of 7.0 is neutral - below 7.0
is acidic, above 7.0 is alkaline. The pH
of our eyes is 7.2 . No wonder that the
ideal pH for your pool is just that -
7.2 , and should be kept within the
range of 7.0-7.6 .
What happens when the pool is too
acidic?
(pH is low)
* If your swimming pool is Marbelite or
plaster, the pool water will begin to
dissolve the surface, creating a
roughness which is ideal for pool algae
growth. A similar result occurs in the
grouting of tiled swimming pools.
* Metals corrode - and this includes
swimming pool equipment, pipe fittings,
pump connections, etc.
* As the swimming pool walls and metal
parts corrode, sulphates are formed.
These sulphates are released from the
water onto the walls and floor of the
swimming pool causing ugly brown and
black stains.
* Chlorine, which is used as a
disinfectant in the swimming pool water,
is activated and lost to the atmosphere
very quickly. The water is not being
sanitized, and we are throwing away our
money by adding chlorine when the pH is
too low.
* When we swim, our eyes and nose burn.
Our swimwear fades and perishes. Our
skin gets dry and itchy.
What happens when the pool is too
alkaline?
(pH is high)
* The calcium in the swimming pool water
combines with carbonates and forms
scale, just like in our kettles. This
calcification is seen most at the
waterline, where it traps dust and dirt,
turning black with time.
* The swimming pool water starts to
become cloudy or murky and it loses its
sparkle.
* The calcium carbonate has a tendency
to plate out on the sand in the swimming
pool filter, effectively turning it into
cement. So your sand filter becomes a
cement filter, and loses its ability to
trap dirt from the pool water.
* As the pH rises, the power of the
chlorine to act on foreign particles is
lost. At a pH of 8.0 the pool can only
use 20% of the chlorine you put in. So
80% of it goes to waste and you would
need 5 times as much chlorine to provide
the disinfection you need.
* In alkaline swimming pool water, the
swimmers suffer too. Our eyes and nose
burn and our skin gets dry and itchy.
By neglecting to test and correct the pH
of swimming pool water, we not only
cause it to become unsightly, but we
also cause ourselves physical
discomfort. In addition to this, we
insist on throwing away our hard-earned
money on swimming pool chemicals that
cannot possibly be effective in that
pool water.
After testing the water, the necessary
chemicals must be added to bring the pH
to a level of about 7.2 .
We answer your inquiries and provide
all the assistance you need pool and
spa services with the best standards
of professionalism and workmanship
in the industry.
