If you have questions about swimming pool water testing, our team is here to help.
Having a swimming pool at your home requires that you keep up with a few maintenance tasks. The first is keeping your pool clean, as too much debris in the water could clog up your filter or pump. Another task is making sure the water is properly treated with chemicals that prevent bacteria and algae from growing in it. In order to achieve the right balance in your pool water, you’ll need to keep up with regular swimming pool water testing. Most pool owners test the water at least once every week or two, although during the summer season when the pool is more heavily used, you may want to test it more frequently.
At Cayman Pool & Spa, we understand that swimming pool water testing can be confusing. Balanced water is connected to the safety of your pool. If there is too much chlorine, the water can hurt your eyes and skin. By testing often and adding chemicals as needed, you can prevent the growth of algae in the water without overdoing it.

Why is swimming pool water testing so important?
Testing your pool water helps you understand its current state and what to do next if the chemistry is unbalanced. You want to keep the water as balanced as possible for a few reasons. One, balanced water equals clean water, and that means you don’t have to worry about swimming in harmful bacteria and getting sick. In addition, balanced pool chemistry protects your pool from damage and discoloration. That saves you a lot of money on repairs.
What kinds of pool test kits are there?
There are three main types of test kits that pool owners commonly use: liquid test kits, test strips, and digital test kits. The liquid test kits are accurate and affordable but the most difficult to use. Test strips are easier to use, although they are not as accurate, while digital test kits are fast and accurate but the most expensive.
