Give your pool a quick visual inspection daily. Once you get used to how your pool is supposed to look, it will only take a few seconds to check the color and clarity of the water, check the water level in the pool and note any unusual odors or appearance clues that something needs attention.
The water level should be about half way up the skimmer intake on your pool filter. If the water level is too high because of rain, you’ll need to drain some water from it. If it gets too low, you’ll need to add water to prevent damage to the pump motor.
Do a quick chlorine test. You should check the pH balance and chemicals at least once a week, but testing the chlorine concentration daily is a good way to avoid running into problems. All you have to do is drop a single drop from your chlorine test into the pool water. Depending on the type of reagent you’re using, the drop will turn either pink or yellow as soon as it hits the water if there’s enough chlorine. If there’s no color change, you need to add chlorine to bring it up to par.
Skim the swimming pool surface to remove any leaves or other debris before it can cause other problems. Fish out any debris that’s sunk to the bottom of the pool.
Give the steps a quick brush to remove any dirt and catch the beginnings of any algae before it takes hold. If you see any signs of algae elsewhere in the pool, brush that as well.
Clean out the skimmer and pump baskets daily. This is the one single thing you can do that will head off many different pool problems caused by clogged baskets and filters.
Empty the pool cleaner bag if necessary.
This simple daily pool maintenance routine shouldn’t take more than 10 minutes, and will keep your pool sparkling clean and clear. As you get to know your pool, you’ll find which tasks you can skip and which must be done every day.
Wow, great article, I really appreciate your thought process and having it explained properly, thank you!

We must maintain the cleanliness of it as well as their equipment so that we will maintain their quality. To keep swimming pools clean and germ-free, most owners use chlorine. The chemical is known to bind with germs to kill them. Generally, a couple signs about the condition of the water will tell us the chemical is effective: it is clear and has almost no odor.
