Some advice

To prevent water loss

Use a pool cover to reduce water evaporation. A pool cover can reduce evaporation by 50-70%. As well as conserving water, a cover also limits the build-up of debris, making maintenance easier.

Filter regularly, up to 8 to 12 hours a day at the height of the season, and clean your filter.

Don't overfill the pool. Keep the water level just below the skimmers to avoid overflowing.

Check pool equipment and structures regularly to detect and repair leaks quickly.

Install rainwater harvesting systems to partially fill the swimming pool or water garden plants.

Recycle your swimming pool water when you drain it, and reuse it to water your garden or vegetable patch
