We are in a severe drought,my grandkids have a baby pool @ my house.I can get debris out but what about bacter
Question:Can you treat the water for purification with thimble of clorox or something safely? Our drought situation absolutely doesn't allow any use of water for recreational use.The water of couse becomes stagnant after a while.I do have it covered securely and keep it debris free,but I sure love these babies and they really love their little pool.It's only 6' in diameter and 6" deep.Ant chemists out there that can tell me something safe and effective?
Answers:
one drop of clorox every day per gallon of water. if you put an aquarium power head pump in the water when it is not in use, this willl help to oxegenate the water, inhibiting harmful bcteria.
No, no. Wash the thing out and refill with clean water-you are only talking about 90 gallons. You probably use a minimum of 5,000 gallons a month in normal use. i use an average of about 8-10,000 at my home. You will never see 100 gallons for the pool.
Without a filter, the only safe way to keep the pool clean is to disinfect it while it's empty. Clean the inside using baking soda and vinegar. Rinse well before refilling the pool.
Use the existing pool water on your plants and lawn.
