Pool Maintenance
 
Please be aware that the following maintenance schedule is good for a Rapture Pool only. Many builders do not put the same equipment on their pools, so most of them require more time and chemicals than a Rapture Pool. Minimal amounts of effort will provide you with a clean, clear, blue, sparkling pool.
 
Weekly:
 
  1. Test all chemicals. Do not add any chemicals until the maintenance for that day is complete.
  2. Check in-line chlorinator to make sure it is full.
  3. Net out any leaves and debris. (it is a good idea to net out all leaves daily during autumn)
  4. Brush pool walls and floor.
  5. Clean out all skimmer and pump baskets (it is a good idea to do this daily during autumn)
  6. Vacuum the pool as needed.
  7. Check the pressure gauge on the filter. (if 10 PSI above normal clean filter)
  8. Check all pool equipment for any leaks.
  9. Shock your swimming pool unless you have Ozone. If you do have Ozone you can shock the pool by running the pool for 24 hours.
 
Monthly:
 
  1. Add a metal out product. We recommend Jacks Magic “THE BLUE STUFF”.
  2. Take your water and have it professionally tested.
  3. Check Ozone (if purchased) to make sure blue glow is coming out of unit. (pump must be running to check this)
    EVERY 6 MONTHS
  1. If filter has not been cleaned this is a good time to clean it.
  2. Replace Nature II cartridge.
  3. Lubricate all pump and filter o-rings.
This will give a general schedule to go by but please listen to your pool professional on any ideas that they might have. You can pick your day of the week to complete your maintenance schedule and try as hard as you can to stick with that day. As the climate and extent of use of the pool alters, so can your maintenance.
