Get your pool ready for action now

The new pool season is approaching, and the sense of anticipation is growing with each passing day. But before you can dive in, outdoor pools need a spring clean. By heeding a few tips, you can enjoy an untroubled swimming season.

Many garden pool owners are eagerly waiting for the weather to finally get warmer. And there’s a simple reason for this: when temperatures are permanently above 15 °C, the conditions are ideal for operating swimming pools with heat pumps. Above 15 °C, the pumps operate extremely efficiently and save a lot of energy.

There is no fixed point in time for filling a pool. The important thing is to thoroughly remove leaves, branches and dirt from the empty pool beforehand. If the pool has a turbine swimming system such as HydroStar or EasyStar, the shaft or housing also requires careful cleaning. This keeps the technology reliable and ensures lasting high performance.

pH value plays an important role in water quality

Once the pool has been filled, it is advisable to check the pH value thoroughly. A value between 7.0 and 7.4 not only ensures optimum water quality but also extends the service life of the pool components and prevents algae from forming. A pH value that is too high or too low can be balanced out with special pH plus or pH minus products.

A turbine swimming system is the ideal addition

Many pool owners use the spring clean as an opportunity to upgrade their pool. A turbine swimming system from BINDER is perfect for this, providing a wide, powerful current that feels as if you are in a river. It creates the ideal conditions for endurance swimming, wellness exercises, aqua aerobics and aqua jogging, and even just splashing around is much more fun with the turbine-powered devices.

BINDER has the right turbine swimming system in its range for every pool and every requirement. HydroStar was developed for permanent installation in the pool wall, EasyStar for quick retrofitting, and LittleStarlet is so compact that the system can even be installed on a step in the pool. The systems are conveniently controlled by remote control or via the BINDER24 app. They are available with flow rates of 160 m3 to 1,200 m3 per hour.
