Spring has sprung on the Gold Coast, and as the days get longer and the sun gets warmer, it’s time to get your pool back in action! After a long winter, your pool needs a little TLC to ensure it’s ready for endless hours of fun in the sun.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you prepare your pool for the warmer months, ensuring it’s in top condition all spring and summer.
1. Give Your Pool a Thorough Clean
Winter can leave your pool looking less than inviting. Before you start splashing around, it’s essential to give your pool a thorough clean. Start by skimming the surface to remove any debris like leaves and dirt. Don’t forget to clean out the skimmer baskets and the pump strainer.
For those stubborn spots and algae build-up, give the walls and floor a good brush. If you’re dealing with more than just a little grime, consider using a Dolphin robot pool cleaner to do the heavy lifting. It’ll save you time and ensure your pool is spotless, ready for those long, lazy days.

2. Test and Balance Your Water
Now that your pool is clean, it’s time to test the water. Balancing your pool water is crucial to keeping it safe and clear. Use a reliable test kit or bring a sample to our Pool Doctor showroom, where our experts can provide a free water test.
You’ll want to check the pH levels, alkalinity, salt and chlorine levels. If your levels are off, now’s the time to adjust them. Adding a dose of Focus Products Oxyshock will help remove any impurities that might have entered the water during the cooler months, giving your pool water a fresh start.

3. Inspect and Adjust Your Equipment
Spring is the perfect time to check your pool equipment to ensure everything is running smoothly. Start by turning up the running times of your pumps for better water circulation. This ensures that your pool stays clean and the water is properly filtered.
Next, increase the output of your chlorinator to step up sanitisation. As the weather warms up, your pool will need more chlorine to stay safe and clear. Also, don’t forget to use Focus Products Filter Cleaner for an overnight deep clean of your filter. This will ensure that your filter is working efficiently, keeping your water crystal clear.
