Maintaining the right pH balance is the key to a safe, comfortable, and long-lasting swimming pool. Pool water is constantly exposed to chemicals, body fluids, and environmental factors, which can cause pH levels to fluctuate. Keeping them in check is essential to protect both swimmers and the pool’s structure.
Ideal pool water pH should be maintained between 7.4 and 7.6 (neutral) for optimal comfort and sanitation. Low pH levels can lead to corrosion of ladders and handrails, along with skin irritation and eye discomfort. On the other hand, high pH levels can cause excessive chlorine odor, cloudy water, and red, irritated eyes.
