During cleaning<\/strong>, most people wash down surfaces with a detergent and then use the pool<\/strong> water to swish it away. In doing so, they\u2019re covering the cleaned surface with contaminants, once again. Pay particular attention to using the correct detergent<\/strong> in the first place, as many aren\u2019t effective at breaking down organic matter and can also leave difficult residues on the tile surface, creating a cycle of ineffective cleaning and residues.<\/p>\n So what\u2019s the answer to this recurring problem? Firstly, use a good, biodegradable alkaline cleaner, like PS87 PRO<\/b>, which will break down the contaminants, without contaminating the pool water \u2013 and rinse thoroughly with clean water. Different dilutions\/application methods can be used for different purposes. For example:<\/p>\n For more information and advice, visit PS87 PRO – product information<\/a><\/p>\n Alkaline cleaners are ideal for the removal of organic dirt but if you\u2019re faced with limescale<\/strong> build up, you\u2019ll need an acid-based treatment to remove it. Make sure that you choose a buffered acid cleaner, like DETERDEK PRO<\/b>, for two reasons: Firstly, it won\u2019t emit harmful fumes; these can be dangerous if inhaled and, if drawn into air conditioning ducting, which could then erode over time \u2013 a very expensive mistake! Secondly, non-buffered hydrochloric acid can erode aluminum and steel<\/a>; a particular problem if it comes into contact with swimming pools steps, shower fittings, patio furniture and other metal objects.<\/p>\n![\"how-to-clean-swimming-pool\"](\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/how-to-clean-swimming-pool.jpg\")
