We test your pool or spa for water for seven critical factors
- Free Chlorine: Free Chlorine is the chemical that cleans your pool but soon becomes spent and less effective requiring regular test and application.
- Total Chlorine: Includes “spent” less efficient chlorine present that will require removal.
- Bromine: Is more stable than chlorine at spa temperature but can be used in pools as an alternative for people with naturally sensitive skin.
- pH Levels: The balance of acid-alkalinity must be maintained as too much acid will corrode metal equipment, cause pool surface erosion and skin irritations. Too much alkaline causes scaling to surfaces and pipework. We aim to maintain a level of 7.4 (the same pH as a tear drop).
- Alkalinity: Keeping the Alkalinity in check prevents a multitude of issues such as pitted, cracked, etched or delaminated pool surfaces, discoloured metal and pool walls, stinging eyes, nasal passages and skin.
- Calcium Hardness: Some calcium hardness is necessary to prevent damage to grout, plaster, metal rails and even concrete decking however high levels can cause catastrophic damage and incessant cloudiness.
- Cyanuric Acid: Prevents chlorine being lost prematurely due to high exposure to sunlight, too much reduces the effectiveness of the chlorine and will make the water go cloudy.
