Keeping Pool Maintenance Simple

byr-candle-treeI love my pool, and can’t imagine living in the blast furnace summer heat of Dallas without it.  But, if you’re a pool owner then you know that they don’t maintain themselves.  What happens if you let those chlorine levels get too low in the summer heat?  That pleasant escape from the heat can turn into a nightmare of work to clear green (or worse, yellow) algae from the walls, steps, etc. And it’s expensive.  Now, I don’t know about you, but I’m looking for my backyard resort to be a laidback escape from frustration and unpleasant work.  And, unless you’re a sadist, pool maintenance is unpleasant!

Last year, and the year before, I had terrible problems with algae.  Lots of people in my area did so I’m sure it was some function of the weather.  Big expenses on chemicals to clear it up and, more importantly, big expenses in terms of my time to clean it up. And I was failing!

Then, like a gift from the gods, a 19yo attendant at my local pool store recommended a new product.  Now, I’ll tell you, I put very little stock in 19yo “pool experts”, but desperation can open you up to options, or “wishful thinking”.   So, I dropped my 34.99 and bought this new elixar.  By the time I got home, I was sure this was just the latest snake oil and set myself up for disappointment.  This product said to put two capfuls a week in my pool and, whush,  problems disappear.  Yea, right.  If it sounds too good to be true …..    But I had a mess on my hands with cloudy water, green algae, yellow algae, clogged filters, etc,  so … what they heck.  I got the water back in balance, cleaned my filters, shocked the pool and added my two capfuls of the magic elixar.

Fast forward a week and low and behold ….. it worked!  My pool is perfect, no algae, beautiful water,and like magic my chlorine levels are being maintained without me having to add constantly.  Bottom line is that I went through last summer with a perfect pool, almost no maintenance, and used probably half (if that) the chlorine I had in past seasons.  Recommeded the product to my neighbor …. same results ..

phosfreeSo, are you on the edge of your seat waiting for the answer to your pool challenges?  Well, here it is …. Pool Perfect + Phosfree from a company called Natural Chemistry. Now, if I’m you, I’m thinking that this post is just a ploy to hock a product. Think again … I have nothing whatsoever to do with this company or their product. I have no incentive to endorse their product, although I have no problem doing so. I simply found something that really worked for me and am passing it on to my fellow Backyard Resorters. Backyard Resorts is all about creating a tropical environment that is relaxing, Laidback, and stress-free. This product removed a lot of stress for me, so I’m passing it on to you.

You can thank me later ….

Cheers

    You’re in Dallas trying to grow stuff that doesn’t grow there, I’m in Bermuda, trying to grow stuff that doesn’t grow here. Must be a personality thing. Nice pool surroundings, though.

    Prospero, I believe it’s a chronic condition call “Zone Denial” :) . We all have our issues I suppose. I’ll check out your blog. Haven’t been to bermuda yet, but I’m envious none the less.

    When you are dreaming to have a pool you must also consider the things like how you maintain it in the way that it should not bring any harm to anybody who swims there.

  8. Hey very nice blog!! Man .. Beautiful .. Amazing .. I will bookmark your blog and take the feeds also… I am placing a link on my site to yours… what “anchor text” would you like me to use?

  9. admin says:

    Thanks, and I appreciate the link as well. I typically use something like “Learn how to create and exotic tropical backyard setting or tropical pool landscape, even if you don’t live in Florida?”. Send me a PM to info@tropicalyard.com with your anchor text and I’ll reciprocate the link. We do plan to broaden and enhance the site.

  11. hey exceptional little blog ya have here ;) I am using the same exact web theme on my own blog yet unfortunately for whatever odd explanation it seems to stream faster on this blog despite the fact that your own seems to have more content. Are you currently getting different plugins or widgets which quicken it up? Do you think you could possibly have the titles so that I would be able to use these in my personal websites so twilight breaking dawn fans could watch twilight eclipse online trailers and videos more easily I’d personally be happy – thanks in advance :)
