☀️ How to Keep Your Pool Healthy During a Heat Wave

Northern California is heating up — and there’s no better place to beat the heat than your own backyard pool. But while you’re enjoying the sunshine, your pool is working overtime.

Hot weather can take a serious toll on water quality, equipment performance, and even your energy bill if you're not careful.

Here’s how to keep your pool in peak condition during the hottest days of the year:

☀️ 1. Heat Speeds Up Chemical Imbalance

As the temperature rises, chlorine and other sanitizers break down much faster. That leaves your pool water vulnerable to:

• 🌱 Algae growth

• 🦠 Bacterial contamination

• 🌫️ Cloudy water

During a heat wave, you’ll need to test and adjust your chemicals more often just to keep things balanced — and that means more time, money, and chemicals.

💧 2. Evaporation Happens Fast

You might notice your water level dropping quicker than usual. That’s not a leak — it’s evaporation. But it can cause problems if not addressed:

• Low water levels can allow air into your pump

• Air in the system can damage pool equipment

• Skimmer efficiency decreases, leading to debris buildup

We make sure your water levels stay optimal and your circulation system is running smoothly.

⚡ 3. Equipment Runs Longer and Harder

Your pump and filter are likely working longer hours in hot weather to keep your pool circulating and clean. That can mean:

• Higher electricity bills

• Faster equipment wear

• More frequent maintenance

This is where Fusion 44x can make a big difference.
