Pool Filter should run at least 8 to 10 hours per day (24 hours per day is best). Set your pool timer or remember to run the pool manually if you don't have a timer. If you are not running your pool 24 hours per day, it is best to have it running during the daylight hours (instead of night). Make sure your skimmer baskets are empty and clear of leaves or other debris. Best method is to place 3 Inch Slow Dissolving Stabilized Chlorine Tablets in the skimmers once per week (4-6 tablets are normal for a 16x32 pool).
Covering a pool or spa is important when it is not in use. Properly installed pool or spa covers retain heat, reduces the evaporation rate, protect the pool's surface from wind, prevent leaves and other debris getting into the water, less chemicals to be added to the pool and provides protection to children and pets. Pool and spa covers have come into increasing use over the past few years for above mentioned advantages. Shielding the water from the sun cuts down on chemical use; it keeps down the cost of heating by retaining the warmth; it reduces the vacuuming and filter cleaning time by preventing leaves and debris.
