It may seem a usual event for pool tiles to build up a layer of white \u201cscum\u201d on the side, just above the water level. Natural evaporation reduces the waterline and leaves it vulnerable to staining. Having high pH levels or high alkalinity as H2o evaporates causes Calcium to adhere along the path of the water's edge, slowly going down. The ideal numbers<\/a> are pH of 7.4 and alkalinity ranging between 80 and 120 PPM (parts per million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, an inadequate chemical imbalance of pool-water chemicals causes scales and stains to appear at the water's edge. That\u2019s why basic know-how of what and why pool water needs, so you stay away from problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On general occasion, it is scale or stain that cause discolouration, but so do falling leaves that stick to the sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Is all calcium build up the same? No.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You have two primary culprits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mind both and scrub tiles in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Again, we have two primary culprits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Having both makes cleaning pool tiles a nightmare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The one best solution is to be consistent with the cleaning and maintenance of your pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Equip yourself with a soft brush and do a bit of scrubbing twice a week as part of your maintenance routine and you\u2019ll keep algae, mould, and dirt gross away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, if you want to stay chemical-free, there are always classic recipes. Just note that the following would work only if waterline grime is light:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cases that go beyond \u201cstage 1\u201d require a professional approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Regular upkeep of your pool and pool tiles is the best way to stay on top of built-up dirt and film, not to mention up keeping a healthy & non-toxic environment for children<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Nothing helps keeping pool clean as prevention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are a DIY'er when it comes to in-ground pool maintenance, renting a pressure washer may be a good option for you. This is the best way to clean a pool tile that is safe and chemical-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You need no detergents for pressure washing. Pressurised steam set at 2000 to 2600 PSI can remove built-up dirt, mould, and calcium deposits.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
