Pool Maintenance Guide – English Version
This guide is optimized for tropical climate (Diani Beach) and written so it can be followed exactly by the pool attendant.
1. Target Water Values
pH: 7.2 – 7.6 (ideal: 7.4–7.5)
Chlorine: 1.5 – 2.5 ppm
Pump runtime: 8–10 hours per day
Water: clear, no smell, no foam
If these values are correct, no algaecide is needed.
2. Daily Tasks
Visual check: water clear, no foam
Empty skimmer baskets
Check pump (quiet, no air)
3. Weekly Tasks (mandatory)
Measure pH and chlorine
Adjust pH if below 7.2 or above 7.6
Brush walls, steps and corners
Backwash filter once per week:
Pump OFF → BACKWASH 2–3 min
Pump OFF → RINSE 30 sec
Pump OFF → FILTER
4. Chemicals – Rules
Allowed: Chlorine, pH Plus/Minus, flocculant if water is cloudy
Not allowed regularly: Algaecide, copper products, anti-foam
5. If the Pool Turns Green
Shock chlorination
Run pump 12–24 hours and brush
Add flocculant, run pump 2–3 hours
Pump OFF overnight
Vacuum sediment to WASTE (not through filter)
6. Important Rules
No algaecide without owner approval
No overdosing
Never pour chemicals into the skimmer
Always add chemicals slowly into the pool with pump running
Chlorine cleans. Brushing prevents algae. The filter finishes the job.
Mwongozo wa Matengenezo ya Bwawa – Kiswahili
Mwongozo huu umetengenezwa kwa mazingira ya joto ya Diani Beach na unapaswa kufuatwa kikamilifu na mhudumu wa bwawa.
1. Viwango Sahihi vya Maji
pH: 7.2 – 7.6 (bora: 7.4–7.5)
Klorini: 1.5 – 2.5 ppm
Muda wa pampu: Saa 8–10 kwa siku
Maji: Safi, hayana harufu, hayana povu
Ikiwa viwango hivi viko sawa, hakuna haja ya kutumia algaecide.
2. Kazi za Kila Siku
Angalia maji (uwazi, hakuna povu)
Safisha vikapu vya skimmer
Angalia pampu (isiwe na sauti isiyo ya kawaida, isiingize hewa)
3. Kazi za Kila Wiki (lazima)
Pima pH na klorini
Rekebisha pH ikiwa chini ya 7.2 au juu ya 7.6
Piga mswaki kuta, ngazi na pembe za bwawa
Safisha kichujio mara moja kwa wiki:
Zima pampu → BACKWASH dakika 2–3
Zima pampu → RINSE sekunde 30
Zima pampu → FILTER
4. Kemikali – Kanuni
Ruhusiwa: Klorini, pH Plus/Minus, flocculant ikiwa maji ni mawingu
Hairuhusiwi mara kwa mara: Algaecide, kemikali za shaba (copper), anti-foam
5. Bwawa Likigeuka Kijani
Ongeza klorini nyingi (shock chlorine)
Weka pampu iendelee kwa saa 12–24 na piga mswaki
Ongeza flocculant, pampu ifanye kazi saa 2–3
Zima pampu usiku kucha
Fyonza uchafu chini ya bwawa kwenda WASTE (sio kupitia kichujio)
6. Sheria Muhimu
Usitumie algaecide bila ruhusa ya mmiliki
Usizidishe kemikali
Usimwage kemikali kwenye skimmer
Mwaga kemikali polepole ndani ya bwawa wakati pampu inaendelea kufanya kazi
Klorini husafisha. Kusugua huzuia algae. Kichujio hukamilisha kazi.
