How to prevent swimming pool clogging
Anti-clogging is important for swimming pools.The most effective strategy for preventing clogging is always prevention. Physical interception at the source and meticulous daily maintenance are far more economical, safe, and effective than post-clogging.
It includes a three-layer defense system: source interception, process protection, and intelligent early warning.
1, The source interception
1.1, Install relevant swimming pool accessories and facilities:such as skimmer, hair filter, main drain anti-clogging grille, bottom return water cover, circulating water inlet filter net and etc. We have to clean the skimmer,hair filter every day. Besides,Routine weekly checks of drain ,valve and net and etc.
1.2, Protect the internal structure of the circulatory system.
(1), Anti-clogging design of the equipment,such as :
(2), Clog-free pump impeller: Wide flow channel design, less prone to hair entanglement.
(3), Side-flow filter: Some systems have a small pre-filter installed beside the main pipeline to distribute the impurity load.
(4), Automatic air vent valve: Prevents air blockage that can cause poor circulation.
1.3, Chemical protection: Regularly use pipe cleaners to maintain a reasonable level of disinfection: Sufficient residual chlorine can prevent algae and microorganisms from growing and forming slime in the pipes.
Also ,detecting anomalies through monitoring and intelligent response.
2, On other hand ,we can strengthen environmental management.
(1)Mandatory Shower: Swimmers are required to shower before entering the water to remove oil, cosmetics, and sweat.
(2)No Items Allowed: Cotton clothing and loose jewelry are prohibited in the pool.
(3)Pool Cover/Fence: The pool should be covered during non-use periods to prevent wind from blowing debris into the pool.
A well-designed and properly maintained pool circulation system can remain virtually unclogged for years.
