Greetings
Can you please help clarify the conflicting advice we are receiving from two inground fibreglass swimming pool retailers.
What is the best cleaning solution to use to clean an inground under cover fibre glass swimming pool, the pool will be completely indoor - pool approx 11 x 4.5 and pool house 15 x 8 made of galv rust dipped steel and hardiflex - there will be sliding doors at the front and side for ventilation and a full length roof ridge cap.  When not in use the doors to the pool enclosure would be closed.
Regards
Heather

Answer:

Hi Heather, The best solution for keeping the pool clean is to turn the water over by filtration, which should occur twice daily as per the Australian Standard, and chemically treat the pool in the normal recommended way. You should also use a normal vacuum cleaning system when required.
Regards,
Manfred

Posted by ozpoolman

don’t put a salt chlorinator on the pool for sanitation, try a doser. Chemigem are the best unit on the market.
