Welcome to Smart Pool Season Preparation!

With the arrival of spring, it’s time to think about opening your pool and ensuring a hassle-free summer. At Kocher’s Water Pumps and Tanks, we’re dedicated to helping you manage your pool efficiently and effectively. One essential tip to start the season right is bypassing your home’s water softener when filling your pool. Here’s why this is a smart move:

Optimize Your Pool’s Water Quality

Efficient Pool Maintenance: Bypassing your water softener helps maintain the ideal balance in your pool’s water chemistry. Softened water can lead to increased algae growth and require additional chemicals to manage. Using raw, unfiltered well water not only keeps the water chemistry stable but also reduces the need for extra maintenance.

Cost-Effective System Care

Water softeners are typically designed to handle about 1000 gallons per day. Filling a pool can quickly exceed this limit, leading to potential system overload and costly repairs. By bypassing the softener, you prevent excessive wear and tear, ensuring your system runs efficiently and saving you money in the long run.

High-Performance Filtration

Your pool’s own filtration system is perfectly capable of managing the impurities found in well water. This means you can rely on built-in filters to clear any discoloration, ensuring clear and clean pool water without additional strain on your home water systems.

Advanced Water Treatment Tips

To further optimize your water softener’s performance and avoid common pitfalls, consider these guidelines:

  • Monitor Water Pressure: Keep an eye on water pressure and replace filters promptly to maintain optimal performance.
  • Regular System Regeneration: Regenerate your water softener regularly after heavy use to prevent discolored water and other issues.
  • Sustainable Solutions: Using your pool’s filtration system for what it’s designed for is a practical and eco-friendly approach to water treatment.
