Balance your water

For a beautiful, eco-responsible swimming pool

Balancing pool water is of vital importance to optimise the use of treatment products, reduce water consumption and adopt an eco-responsible attitude.

This balance is based on three essential parameters: TAC (Total Alkalinity), pH and TC (Chlorine).

When one of these parameters is too low or too high in relation to the others, the water is said to be out of balance. In this case, the effectiveness of the treatments decreases, leading to rapid greening of the water.

Balancing swimming pool water

Key to environmentally responsible management

This balance is based on three essential parameters: TAC (Total Alkalinity), pH and TH (Chlorine). These three parameters - TAC, pH and TH - interact with each other and must be harmonised in accordance with established standards.

By respecting this balance, you can ensure better water quality, extend the life of your equipment and contribute to a more sustainable use of your pool, in line with an eco-responsible approach.

In the event of water imbalance

Significant consequences

The consequences of unbalanced water quickly become apparent:

Algae proliferate, and the water becomes cloudy because the disinfectants can no longer work properly.

Flocculants and disinfectants lose their effectiveness.

Water can become aggressive, causing skin and eye irritation, or scaly, damaging equipment.

There is a risk of damage and premature ageing.

The liner can become brittle and the tile joints can disintegrate more quickly.

Balancing your water

To save on products and energy

An imbalance in the water inevitably leads to over-consumption of chlorine and bromine, with no real effect on the persistent presence of algae.

This over-consumption of treatment products eventually leads to saturation with stabilisers, eventually forcing the pool to be drained, significantly increasing water and energy consumption.

Water balancing is therefore a fundamental aspect of pool management.

When the three parameters, TAC, pH and TH, are balanced and harmonised in accordance with established standards, you not only ensure better water quality, but also extend the life of your equipment and contribute to more sustainable use of your pool, in line with an eco-responsible approach.
