It is the dream of almost any home owner to have their own pool. You get to have a relaxing afternoon poolside all the time. You can keep fit by doing laps. And you will be the most popular person in the world as everyone seems to gravitate to those who have pools. But it’s not all fun and games. It takes a lot of work to maintain a pool. In addition to having to keep it properly chlorinated, you have to skim any bugs and leaves off of the top and make sure you scour the bottom for any algae. Lucky for you, we’re here to show you some tools to help you keep your pool crystal clear!

Portable Pool Vacuums: As I mentioned, algae loves to live at the bottom and on the sides of your pool. The chlorine helps prevent algae accumulating, but you will still need to occasionally get down there and remove a film of algae from your pool. That’s where having a solid pool vacuum comes in handy. You’ll be able to easily clean your pool in no time. It also works great on spas and hot tubs.

Doughboy Pool Liner: If you opt of an above ground pool as opposed to an in ground pool, then you’ll probably be getting a Doughboy. One of the quirks about having an above ground pool is that you’ll need a solid pool liner to help prevent leaks. A Doughboy pool liner will get the job done every time, and you can use a Doughboy pool liner even if you have a different brand of pool. Just make sure the dimensions match.

Two easy products to help protect and clean your pool for a fun and splash filled Summer! What are some of your favorite pool party memories? Share them with us in the comments section!
