Winter Season

Winter is now with us most outdoor pools are have been covered for the winter. Some customers wait until the leaves have all  fallen. Close your pool use some shock chlorine to kill any living matter before adding the NomoreAlgae. We have plenty of fresh liquid chlorine, Superfast Shock and our NoMoreAlgae. The shop is now closed on Sunday mornings as clocks already changed for British Wintertime.

The Water Balance should be checked and adjusted as necessary. Another wet winter may have cause the Calcium Hardness and Total Alkalinity levels to become depleted unless a substantial amount of fresh tap water is added when opening your pool. A water sample will be required if you want us to check the balance for you. We can offer a full Balance check, plus “Total Dissolved Solids” and a report using the Spin Photometer for just £5. The long awaited update for the Spin has now arrived with improved accuracy as well as testing for phosphates. (Food for Algae) A quick check (non Spin test )is still free which is strongly recommended if you are just opening or closing your pool and not sure where to begin. Again a water sample will be required.

We know several independent pool engineers who can professionally  open and close your pool as well as carrying out maintenance  tasks, sand and liner changes etc,  for you as required at realistic prices.

Patio Cleaner

Our Liquid chlorine shock is a great product to use on patios and paths. Start with a 50/50 solution in a plastic watering can. Can normally dilute further if stains not too stubborn. Use stiff brush and leave a quarter of an hour or so and rinse area. Be careful if rinsing with a pressure washer as grouting maybe dislodged.

Very Important! Wear old clothes, no matter how careful you are tiny splashes will ruin your cloths. Eye protection (goggles) also recommended. Good idea to use up old product for this purpose leaving the fresh supply for the pool.

Still only £17.50 for 20 Litres

The Waterlink Spin Photometer

We can’t believe we have been using our old Waterlink express photometer for 20 years now. It was “state of the art” at the time but now this latest updated version offers much greater potential accuracy in less than half the time. The same 8 tests are are carried out plus phosphates using just one disc.

The checks are for Free and total chlorine - sanitation

pH, Total Alkalinity, Total Hardness - for Water Balance

Cyanuric Acid, Copper and Iron - chlorine stabiliser and metals.

Phosphates - Food for algae, often added by Water Board to combat                    metal from aging pipe work

We think it fair to charge a nominal £5 per test set (all 9 tests)

New software and firmware updating the original Spin has now been implemented. Phosphates are now included in the tests and overall accuracy has been enhanced
