Both Mother Nature and the folks using your pool bring all sorts of contaminates into your pool, from leaves, mold, and the odd duck or frog to residues from shampoos, perfumes, and sunscreen. Add in the risks of bacterial contamination, and maintaining the correct chemical balance to your pool becomes an absolutely essential part of safe swimming. Also maintaining the correct chemical balance is vital in protecting your pool and equipment.
There are multiple factors in determining an accurate price for each pool. Size, surrounding trees, landscape, equipment and more. Blue Skies will provide a free visit and then a personalized plan and quote based on your needs to include the following,
At Blue Skies we use the Langelier Saturation Index ( LSI ) method to balance the chemicals in your pool. The LSI method separates maintaining your sanitizer levels and the chemicals that effect bather comfort and have an effect on your pool and equipment (pool plaster, waterline grout, pump, heater, etc . . ).
The LSI model includes measuring Temperature, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and a “corrected” Total Alkalinity factor in addition to pH, Calcium Hardness and Cyanuric Acid. See the formula below.
(pH) + (Temperature ºF factor) + (Calcium Hardness factor) + [(Total Alkalinity ppm) - (CYA ppm x correction factor @ current pH)] - (TDS factor) = LSI
The LSI is a value that indicates weather water is balanced. If your water is not chemically balanced it will be either corrosive (undersaturated) or scale producing (oversaturated with calcium). Either will cause equipment damage, bather discomfort and poor water quality,
At Blue Skies we adhere to the LSI model, the more thorough and complicated route because we feel that Water Is Sacred !
