Benefits of Acid Washing Your Pool

If you’re considering an acid wash for your pool, you’re probably wondering what benefits it can provide. In addition to giving your pool a fresh new look, there are several other advantages to this cleaning method.

Additionally, an acid wash can help to remove calcium deposits, which can make your pool’s surface

Acid washing removes a thin layer of your plaster, gunnie or Pebble-Tec to reveal a fresh surface. This removes algae, mineral, chlorine and even dirt stains from the bottom and sides of your pool. If your pool was poorly maintained in the past or has had stagnant water which turned into an algae bloom, algae and phosphates can become embedded in your pool’s finish, making it nearly impossible to get rid of. Acid washing your pool removes any algae or phosphates that are not otherwise removed with chemicals. When finished, the acid washing process gives your pool a clean, fresh new finish and clear, sparkling water.

Another benefit of an acid wash is that it can help to remove algae build-up . Algae can be a common problem in swimming pools, especially if they’re not properly maintained. While other cleaning methods can help to control algae growth, an acid wash can be particularly effective at removing it altogether. This is because the acid can penetrate the pores of your pools surface, where algae often likes to hide.
