To ensure your pool stays clean and safe to swim in throughout the year, it’s crucial to purchase a few maintenance items. But what pool supplies do you need? Below, the team at Pool Pro, serving the residents of Maui for more than 30 years, lists three must-haves.

3 Must-Have Pool Supplies

1. Algaecide

Exposure to algae can cause skin and eye irritation and will make a swimming pool just plain unappealing. Unfortunately, it’s also an inevitable occurrence in any body of water, even if your pool has other chemicals in it. To ensure algae doesn’t take over this backyard feature, purchase an industrial-strength algaecide and use it anytime you see it growing in your pool.

2. Cover

Although Hawaii has fantastic swimming weather all year long, it also experiences tropical storms that come with high winds and lots of rain. To prevent these from getting into the pool and contaminating the water or clogging up the pump, purchase a cover. You should also use it anytime you’re going to be out of town for more than a few days to prevent pests and debris from getting into the water.

3. Chemical Testing Kit

To ensure the water is truly clean, you need to add the right proportions of chemicals to it. This task can only be performed with a quality testing kit, so make sure you have one on hand. It will help you add the right amount of products based on how many people use your pool, how big it is, and what type you have.
