Piscine: tout savoir sur l’équilibre de l’eau

Balanced water is based on 3 parameters: pH, alkalinity (TAC) and hardness (TH). The search for this balance is important because it guarantees the optimal efficiency of chemical products, the preservation of equipment and a perfect bathing quality.

Water balance depends on the use of your pool

L’environnement et la fréquentation de votre piscine ont un impact direct sur la qualité de l’eau :

• The environnement ( trees, air pollution,...)
• Number of people using it
• Frequency of swimming

The number of pH, TAC and TH tests should be adapted to the external factors. Your water should be monitored very regularly. once per week - or daily on summer.

A regular care of your pool in addition with a regular filtration are essential to water quality and preservation of your equipment. Your tips to clean well your pool.

Paramètres et valeurs d’une eau optimale

Voici des indicateurs à analyser pour comprendre la qualité de l’eau :

• pH (sanitization) : Ideally, your pool water should have a pH between 7 and 7.4 (for bromine treatment the pH should be between 7.4 and 7.8). These are the optimal values for water disinfection. All about pH
• The TAC (alkalinity) allows to know the concentration of carbonate and bicarbonate ions. This measurement indicates the capacity of the water to absorb pH fluctuations and to stabilize it. The unit of measurement of the TAC rate is the ppm (part per million) or the French degree (°f) is located between 80 and 120 mg/l . By regulating the TAC level of your water (TAC+ or TAC-) you will be able to do what is called "buffering your water."  All about alcalinity.
• TH (hardness): TH is the hardness of water, which refers to the concentration of calcium or magnesium ions . It is measured in French degrees (°F) or in ppm.The ideal TH is between 10 and 20°F (100 or 200 mg/l or ppm). The higher the TH, the harder and more calcareous the water becomes. Conversely, the lower it is, the softer the water. All about water hardness.
