As summer continues to roll on, have you been having issues with your swimming pool? Have the pool stores and pool professionals told you it’s time to drain your swimming pool because of any of the following issues:

  • High levels of calcium hardness
  • Your total dissolved solids (TDS) levels are too high
  • Cyanuric acid (CYA) is off the charts
  • You have a waterborne disease
  • Your salt levels are too high
  • Phosphates are high

What if you don’t want to drain it?

The simple answer to that question is, you don’t have to drain your swimming pool because Pool Water Recycling offers a much better solution. For the longest time, the only answer to lowering calcium hardness, TDS, CYA, phosphates, salts and waterborne diseases was to drain a swimming pool and start over.

Many people are looking for alternatives to draining a swimming pool and frankly other than repairs to your swimming pool you shouldn’t have to!

As swimming pool water evaporates, the hardness minerals remain in solution and gradually increase in concentration. When they get high in concentration you will begin to notice the following issues:
