Why Kerala Pools Need More Frequent Checks

Due to humidity and rainwater entering the pool, chemical levels drop faster. Test your pool twice a week during summer and after every heavy rain.

3. Prevent Algae Growth (Common in Kerala)

Warm temperatures and moisture create perfect conditions for algae, especially green and mustard algae.

How to prevent algae:

• Shock the pool weekly during summer

• Brush walls and floor to remove hidden spores

• Use an algaecide regularly

• Run the filter for 6–8 hours daily

• Maintain proper chlorine levels

If your pool receives direct sunlight, consider using stabilized chlorine to reduce evaporation.

4. Keep Your Filtration System Running Efficiently

Pool filters work harder in Kerala because of dust, rains, and organic debris.

Filter Maintenance Tips:

• Backwash at least once a week

• Clean skimmer and pump baskets daily

• Ensure circulation is strong and uninterrupted

• Replace sand or cartridges when needed

A clean filter reduces chemical usage and improves water clarity.

5. Handle Monsoon Season The Right Way

Monsoons bring mud, leaves, and rainwater into your pool.

Pre-Monsoon Tips:

• Check and balance chemicals

• Clean drainage around the pool

• Cover the pool if unused

During & After Monsoon:

• Increase chlorine dosage

• Test water every 1–2 days

• Brush and vacuum regularly

• Remove stagnant water from covers

Monsoon is the toughest time for pool owners—professional maintenance from JK Pools Kerala can make it hassle-free.

6. Regular Cleaning Routine

A simple weekly routine keeps your pool inviting:

• Skim floating debris daily

• Brush tiles and walls

• Vacuum floor

• Maintain water level

• Clean surroundings to reduce dust

Kerala’s lush greenery is beautiful—but leaves and pollen often find their way into the pool, so consistency is key.

7. Inspect Equipment Frequently

Humidity affects metal components and electrical systems.

Check for:

• Pump noise or overheating

• Leakages

• Corrosion

• Pressure fluctuations

• Light fittings

Timely service avoids expensive replacements later.

8. Use Quality Pool Chemicals & Accessories
