A fiberglass pool is generally low maintenance and pretty resilient, but you do have to take special care to keep your pool looking beautiful for years to come. Keep the proper chemical levels in your pool, and keep it clean to prevent a majority of problems.
The chemical levels of your pool are very important to keep problems at bay. If you leave your chemical levels unsupervised, problems are sure to arise. Some common problems that occur when your chemical levels get out of balance include stains on the fiberglass shell, unpleasant water colors and odors coming from your pool.
Grass, leaves and other pollutants can cause staining or scratch the surface of your pool. Regular sweeping and vacuuming of your pool can prevent damage to your pool. Use soft pads or a proper degreaser to the exposed portions of your pool to prevent scratching.
A fiberglass pool is one pre-molded item and scratching or cracks can cause major concerns. Each pool has its own set of needs, so be sure to choose the proper patch and repair kits when fixing scratches and cracks. There are even some kits that can be used underwater.
