Pool Water Chemistry Recommendations: A Fine Balance

While some degree of calculation is required to keep chemicals in the proper ranges, the true meaning of balance is between the comfort and enjoyment of your pool, and the safety of effective sanitation. Six main factors impact the chemistry of swimming pool water. Poolside by CGT’s recommendations for the optimal levels – and how often they should be checked – can be found in the table below:

These recommendations have been adapted for residential pools from the American National Standard for Water Quality in Public Pools and Spas. There are minor differences in the recommendations made by vinyl manufacturers, liner fabricators, and pool dealers. As additional sources for water chemistry information, Poolside by CGT recommends reviewing resources from your dealer.
