All pools require some degree of maintenance, though some types, such as fiberglass, are easier to maintain than others. To clean your pool properly, you’ll need tools and equipment like skimmers, sanitizers, pool pumps, pool filters, and pH testing kits for pools. Additionally, optional pool covers can help keep debris out of the water. Diligent seasonal swimming pool maintenance can prevent or correct costly, unsightly, potentially harmful issues like discoloration, liner wrinkling, and bacteria stains.
