How to Clean Up Your Swimming Pool After a Storm

Bad summer storms can appear out of nowhere, but if you know a storm is approaching, cover the pool and anchor the sides of the cover with  winter water bags or sandbags and if you have an automatic pool cleaner, turn it on. If you don't have time to prepare, follow these steps to clean up:

1. Hose down the deck, spray away from the pool
2. Remove all debris from the water surface with the skimmer
3. Turn on the pump
4. Brush the walls and floor. Push the dirt toward the drain
5. Vacuum the pool completely
6. Wait 20 minutes and vacuum the pool again to get all remaining dirt
7. Test pH and adjust if necessary

 
If you are unsure of your procedures or have any concerns, it is important to call your pool service professional.
