Maintaining optimal water quality in your swimming pool is essential to prevent health problems<\/strong> . It seems obvious, but we often assume that water that appears clean is safe for swimming, which may not be the case. Let’s explain how to properly disinfect your pool water<\/strong> : <\/p>\n

When we swim, we leave behind organic matter (sweat, mucus, genitourinary tract, etc.) and inorganic matter (creams, sunscreens, air pollution, etc.). This makes pool water an ideal breeding ground for all kinds of algae and fungi<\/strong> . Although the water is clear and transparent, it contains all these microorganisms, making disinfection necessary. <\/p>\n
