Water care of a swimming pool, whether particular or not, is fundamental, as well as keeping it in perfect conditions. Although it is true that we can often take care of ourselves, the truth is that it is important to leave in the hands of experts the handling of chemical products that are necessary for this process, thus avoiding risks.

The life cycle of the pool water is closely linked to the time of year, so its treatment will vary in frequency of control and chemical products according to whether it is the summer season – when water is exposed to a greater number of pathogens and bacteria, introduced mainly by users of the facilities themselves, or winter, when the impact is minor due to lack of use, without this meaning that no specific care is necessary, in this case known as winter storage.

Servicia Solutions has a team of experts in Malaga who will guarantee that water in your pool complies with necessary requirements to be used in complete safety. There are various services and care, according to the needs and specific wishes of the client, among others:

We take care of both outdoor pools and decks. The first ones are exposed to many and varied microorganisms which can lead to development of algae and, the ones feared by users, mushrooms. For this reason, it is essential to use a good disinfection system. Currently, there are several that can be applied manually or in an automated way. The most effective and economic is chlorine, and the most used in private pools. At Servicia Solutions we apply both manual and automatic, as our experts deem it more convenient and after agreement with the client.

This system has improved over time, since now, in addition to chlorinating, the tablets – we use two formats: liquid and solid – contain bactericidal and flocculating products that help maintain the pool in perfect conditions. When we use chlorine, we must always control the pH levels, which must be between 7.2. and 7.4. If the level of acidity is higher, being below 7.2, the first to notice consequences are the bathers -irritation of skin and mucous membranes-, while if it is above 7.6. then the chlorine loses its effectiveness and therefore water stops being disinfected.

In Servicia Solutions, in addition to chlorine, we use another highly effective disinfection system, such as bromine. Although chlorine guarantees disinfection of water and prevents the formation of algae and lime, the range in which its effectiveness is complete is between 7 and 7.4. -Our experts control these levels ensuring 100% effectiveness. Bromine, on the other hand, allows this range to be wider, since, although pH levels are between 7 and 8, it still maintains more than 90% of its effectiveness as a disinfectant. Another advantage is that bromine does not smell and irritate mucous membranes or skin and is a potent algaecide.

Another important point to consider is the temperature of the water. The bromine manages to maintain disinfection of the pool even at temperatures above 40º, which makes this disinfectant the best option for heated or covered swimming pools, but also for those that are outdoors here on Costa del Sol, don’t forget the high temperatures reached in the months from June to August in the province of Malaga.

Throughout these years, different types of swimming pools have appeared on the market, not only in terms of design, but also in terms of the type of water. Nowadays, we find more frequently that swimming pools are not only freshwater (chlorine), but customers also demand saltwater pools (salt chlorination). The latter is configured as something more than a trend thanks to its advantages, since maintenance is easier and less expensive, on one hand, and on the other, salt prevents the use of chemicals and therefore skin is less exposed to aggression.

Users opt for this option more and more for the apparently simple maintenance of water and, while it is true that it requires fewer controls than chlorine pools, the fact is that analysis remains fundamental, as well as ensuring that salt chlorinators are in perfect condition, the cell is clean, no water leaks or air inlets and chlorine is produced (salt chlorination).

Any control, maintenance system or task requires a series of quality measures and guarantees. Whether it is a cleaning service, gardening, concierge or pool maintenance, the truth is that the best option is to always put these tasks in the hands of accredited professionals. In Servicia Solutions we put at your service all the necessary for the maintenance of your facilities, entrusting your order to our team of specialists and doing at all times a follow-up from our company.
