Daily, weekly and monthly routines that keep your pool crystal clear – explained simply.
Why a routine matters
Clear water is not luck – it is the result of good circulation, filtration and chemistry working together. Ten minutes a day and an hour a week is all most residential pools need.
Daily
Run the filtration for 6–8 hours, skim leaves and insects from the surface, and empty the skimmer baskets. In summer, check water level because evaporation is high.
Weekly
Test pH (ideal 7.2–7.6) and free chlorine (1–3 ppm). Brush walls and steps, vacuum the floor and backwash the sand filter when the pressure gauge rises 8–10 psi above normal.
Monthly
Check total alkalinity and calcium hardness, inspect pump seals and lights, and shock-chlorinate after heavy use or parties.
