How To Clean Dirt From Bottom Of Pool? – Toolsreviewss.com

As a proud pool owner, you want to make sure that your pool is always sparkling clean. You might notice, from time to time that it’s easier said than done.

No matter how hard you try, no matter how many hours you leave the pump filter running for – fine debris will show up at the bottom of your pool. These are fine particles, not your average pool debris. This can be anything from sand and dust, all the way to diatomaceous earth and sediment buildup. 

To make sure your pool always stays clean, today we are going to teach you how to clean dirt from the bottom of a pool.

This is a great option, because these types of cleaners aren’t too expensive. They are going to keep your fine dust and debris at bay. You will need to do some prep work to get one of these installed, but after you do – you can sit back and relax! So, here’s how to do it:

• Before you can install a suction pool cleaner, you need to make sure you start with a clean pool. Use a pool vacuum, or the pump filter to clean the pool. Shock your pool if necessary.

• A suction pool cleaner connects directly to your pool’s filter pump. Make sure that your filter and the pump basket are cleaned.

• You will need to locate your pool’s return fittings. Make sure that you turn them so that they are pointing downwards.

• You can assemble your new pool cleaner’s hose. Remove the skimmer basket and connect the cleaner to your pool.

• You will need to submerge the cleaner’s hose and make sure it is filled with water.

• Finally, submerge your new cleaner and connect it to the hose.

You are all set and good to go! The automatic suction cleaner will move around your pool and collect fine debris. Keep in mind that the waste is collected straight to your pool’s filter. It will require regular cleaning.

Whatever your filter pump misses, you can also get with a pool brush or a vacuum head. What most pool owners miss out on is manual cleaning. 

Brushing the floors and walls and cleaning them regularly is just as important as running the pump. If they are improperly cleaned, over time they will develop gunk and algae buildup. 

Here is how you can properly sweep and scrub your pool.

• You are going to need to purchase a pool brush, or a pool vacuum head. If you don’t have one, you’re also going to need a telescoping pole. This is what the pool vacuum head, or brush attaches to. You may also need a vacuum hose.

• After assembling it, go ahead and prime your vacuum. Make sure all of the air is purged.

Keep in mind that the pump, depending on the manufacturer, will have different options. These options allow you to control what your pump should be filtering for.

If you are looking to get rid of the fine dust particles on the floor of your pool, get familiar with the settings. There are filter settings that allow you to let your pump focus on large debris. Different settings will mean that the pump will focus on smaller and finer debris.

You might want to run these different options separately a few times, to get the most out of it.

• The instructions are very simple. Follow your manufacturer’s instructions to set up the pump for the first time.

• To operate it, you are going to need to turn it on. Before you do, make sure that the pressure levels are optimal. Also make sure that the filter is clean and there is no debris in your filter basket either.

• If you have filter specific settings, allowing you to choose which kind of debris you want the pump to work on, set it before you turn it on.

• Turn the pump on and let it run for eight hours. Monitor to see if the dirt is going to be picked up by the pump.

Finally, if you already tried all the options listed above – it’s time to try a hands-on solution. This isn’t exactly the most traditional pool cleaning method, but it is extremely effective and practical. You can also try this method to remove sand from pool bottom.

You would need to g
et yourself one of those car-wash mitts. These microfiber gloves are actually used to dry off a vehicle’s surface. But, because they are microfiber, they can also be used as fine debris catchers.

Let’s take a look at how we can use one of these to improve our pool’s cleanliness.

• Get a car-wash mitt. You can pick one up at one of the large retail locations. You could also get one from a car equipment store. If you don’t have the time to search for one, you can save yourself the trouble and order one online right here.

• Once you get your mitt, you’re also going to need a telescoping pole. If you already have a pool brush or a vacuum head with the pole, go ahead and get it.

• Attach the mitt to the top of the pool brush or vacuum head. You can slip it on across the entire surface.

• Use a telescoping pole, or your existing vacuum head on it, to guide the microfiber mitt across the trouble areas.

• You are going to need to rinse off your mitt often, especially if you have a lot of fine debris on the floor of your pool.
