Your pool water is highly dependent on being sanitized, well filtered, and properly circulated. If one of these three elements is not in play, you’ll typically experience a green or cloudy pool. While we’ve covered some of the ways to help sanitize your pool without overusing chlorine, it’s also worth mentioning that proper water filtration will also help to lower chlorine usage. Be sure to clean your pool filter regularly, run it for at least 8 hours per day, use a water clarifier to help get rid of fine particles and invest in a good vacuum system. These key things will help ensure that your water is properly filtered and cleaned, which also helps to lower chlorine usage.
