The importance of a pH regulator for your pool

Maintaining a pool can be tedious, and one of the most important aspects is maintaining a correct pH. pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of water and it should be between 7.2 and 7.6 for a pleasant and safe swimming experience.

An imbalanced pH can have many negative consequences:

  • Discomfort for swimmers: Water that is too acidic or too basic can irritate the skin and eyes.
  • Inefficiency of treatment: Chlorine and other disinfectants are not as effective if the pH is not within the correct range.
  • Algae growth: Algae thrive in water with unbalanced pH levels.
  • Equipment corrosion: Water that is too acidic can corrode pool walls and equipment.

That's why it's important to regularly test your pool's pH and correct it if necessary. You can do this manually using test kits and chemicals, but it can be tedious and time-consuming.

What is an automatic pH regulator?

An automatic pH regulator is a device that maintains your pool's pH at a constant level. It consists of a probe that measures the water's pH and a dosing pump that automatically injects chemicals to correct the pH if necessary.

The benefits of an automatic pH regulator

  • Time and effort savings: You no longer need to manually test and correct the pH.
  • Better water quality: Your pool water will always be clean and clear.
  • Swimming comfort: The water will always be pleasant for the skin and eyes.
  • Equipment protection: The water will not corrode pool walls and equipment.

The cost of an automatic pH regulator may be high, but it is quickly recouped through the time and money savings it allows.
