Acid washing a swimming pool involves using a diluted acid solution, typically muriatic acid, to clean the surface of the pool. This process reduces stubborn stains, algae buildup, and mineral deposits, especially on plaster or concrete pools.
Here’s a quick rundown of the benefits:
Revitalizes the pool's appearance: Acid washing can make the pool look like new by reducing discoloration and stains.
Removes algae and bacteria: It thoroughly cleans the surface, reducing contaminants and helping maintain better hygiene.
Keep in mind that it’s a labor-intensive process that requires safety precautions and expert handling to avoid damage to the pool or harm from the chemicals. It's generally recommended every few years or when the pool has significant staining. Have you been considering this for your own pool? Click the button below to request a free estimate.
