clipped from: ezinearticles.com Having a good swimming pool pH level is essential in making sure that all of the equipment and chemicals used in your pool are doing their job correctly. That's why it's so important to test the levels at least once a week. Even in the off-season you'll want to keep an eye on it, because as an open water system, you'll have nasty algae growth, fungus, bacteria and the like.
That's why I recommend investing in a swimming pool maintenance guide. These guides will not only teach you tips and tricks to easily maintain your own pool, you'll also save thousands each year from unneeded chemicals and maintenance fees.
