What is the Pool Pump Calculation Method?

Determine the total amount of water in your pool. To do this, measure the length (A), width (B) and depth (C) of the pool. Then calculate the total volume using the formula A x B x C.

  For example: If the pool is 8 meters long, 4 meters wide and 1.5 meters deep, its total volume is 8 x 4 x 1.5 = 48 cubic meters.

 Determine the circulation of the pool. It's about how often you want to fully rotate the pool. In general, it is recommended to rotate 2-3 times per hour. For example, if you want to circulate 2 times per hour, set the pump flow requirement used to pump the total volume 2 times per hour.

 Determine the flow of the pump. The flow rate of the pump indicates how many times per hour the pool can pump the total volume. Pump flow is usually expressed in liters per hour. Divide the total volume by the rotation speed to determine the pump flow rate. For example, if you want to pump your 48 cubic meter pool 2 times per hour, the pump flow rate would be 48 x 2 = 96 m³/hour.

 Choose a pump. Select the appropriate pool pump according to the flow rate of the pump. Pump manufacturers often specify the flow capacity of their products. If you pay attention to these values, you can choose the right pump for your pool.

How to Select a Pool Water Pump?

When choosing a pool water pump, it is important to consider the following factors:

 Size and capacity of the pool: You can determine the required flow capacity of the pool pump, depending on the dimensions of the pool, such as length, width and depth. A larger pool may require a more powerful pump.

 Rotation speed: It's important to determine how often you want the pool to spin completely. Generally, 2-3 rotations per hour are recommended. The rotational speed is a factor that affects the flow capacity of the pump. Filtration system: The pool pump is used to filter the pool. It is important that the pool is compatible with the filtration system and that it can work efficiently. The power of the pump must be sufficient to obtain a certain flow rate of the filter.

  Energy efficiency: Choosing an energy efficient pump can reduce energy costs in the long run. Energy efficiency depends on the power of the pump motor and its performance relative to the electrical energy used. You can select a more efficient pump by checking the energy efficiency ratings and energy consumption values provided by the manufacturer.

  Noise level: The noise level of the pump during operation can affect comfort. You may want to choose a quieter pump. Pump manufacturers usually specify the noise level in decibels (dB). You can provide a quieter pool by choosing a pump with a lower decibel level. Brand and quality: It is important to be sure of a reliable brand and good product quality. By researching and looking at user reviews, you can choose durable pump models that have a good reputation in the market.

How Does the Pool Circulation System Work?

Pool circulation system is a system that provides continuous filtering and purification of pool water. We can explain how it works with the following steps:

 Pool Pump: One of the main components of the pool circulation system is the pool pump. A pump circulates the water in your pool using suction and pressure. The pump sucks water from the skimmer (surface cleaner) and uses the filters inside the pool.

 Scrapers and Strainers: Scrapers are used to collect dirt and particles from the pool surface. Scrapers are entry points that are placed on the sides of the pool and absorb dirt from the surface. The sucked water passes into the filter system.

 A strainer is used to clean the water from the pump and capture the particles. As the water passes, the filter material in the filters (usually sand, fiberglass or cartridge) captures the particles and passes through the clean water.

 Pool heater or disinfection system: A pool circulation system often works integrated with other components such as a pool heater or disinfection system. The flow of water produced by the circulation system is important for these systems to reach the water and fulfill its function.

  Return water nozzles: The treated water returning from the pump is directed to other parts of the pool. Return showers are outlet points placed on the bottom and side walls of the pool. With these showers, the water is distributed all over the pool and the water is circulated evenly.

 The circulation system of the pool constantly pumps and cleans the water. Thus, dirt, leaves, insects and other particles remain in the filters and the water returns to the pool purified. The circulation system keeps the pool healthy and clean, provides balanced water distribution and helps to maintain the chemical balance.

 A swimming pool's circulation system is actuated by components that work together, such as the pool pump, filters, strainers and return nozzles. Correct installation and regular maintenance of these components

What is a Pool Automatic Dosing Pump and What Does It Do?

Automatic pool dosing pump, chemicals into the pool water  It is a system that ensures the right amount and continuous participation. These pumps are used to maintain the pH balance of the water, control the disinfection level and dose other chemicals into the pool. The functions of the automatic dosing pump are described below:

 pH balance: The pH level of the pool is important for a healthy and clean pool. PH level refers to the degree of acidity or alkalinity of water. An automatic dosing pump automatically adds pH adjusting chemicals (usually pH risers or pH reducers) to the pool to keep the pH level within the desired range. This ensures a balanced pH level of the water and a comfortable swimming experience for the users.

  Disinfection: The pool water must be disinfected in order to prevent the reproduction of microorganisms and to create a hygienic environment. Disinfectants such as chlorine, bromine or ozone are widely used. The automatic dosing pump adds the right amount of disinfectant to the pool, ensuring that the disinfectant level is constantly maintained. In this way, the pool water is purified from microorganisms and a safe swimming environment is created for the users.  Other chemicals: Sometimes other chemicals may be needed in the pool. For example, algae repellants, coagulants or various water stabilizing chemicals should be added to the pool. The automatic dosing pump adds these substances to the pool water in the right amount and at the programmed times, keeping the water clean, clear and balanced.

 Automatic dosing pumps provide precise and continuous dosing, so you get more accurate results than adding chemicals manually. These pumps provide the user with the convenience of maintaining the pool water quality and reduce the hassle of regular maintenance. The pool automatic dosing pump is an important device used to control and regulate the pH balance, disinfection level and other chemical parameters of the pool water. It is important to choose the right dosing pump and make the right programming according to the characteristics and needs of the pool.

Pool Cleaning: Frequency and Period

Pool cleaning is a regular process to maintain water quality, remove dirt and particles, and create a healthy swimming environment. The frequency and duration of pool cleaning can vary depending on many factors. Here are some factors to consider.

 Frequency of use: The frequency of use of the pool is an important factor affecting the cleaning cycle. A more frequently used pool may require more frequent cleaning. A weekly cleaning cycle is generally recommended for heavily used pools. Pool Size: The larger the pool, the more time and effort it may take to clean. Large pools usually require more time and effort. You can determine the cleaning time according to the size and characteristics of your pool.

  Pool location: The location of the pool determines the influence of natural factors surrounding the pool. For example, if there are trees by the pool, the frequency of cleaning may increase due to the increase in leaves and dirt. Dust and dirt build-up can also be faster in windy areas. It is important to adjust the cleaning period by taking into account the environmental factors of the pool.

  Filtration system: The filtration system of the pool also affects the frequency of cleaning. The filter system should be checked and cleaned regularly. If the filters need to be cleaned or replaced, it is important to ensure the quality and cleanliness of the pool.  In general, a weekly cleaning cycle is recommended for pool cleaning. During this time, it is important to perform the following cleaning operations:

 Surface cleaning: Clean the leaves, insects and other particles on the pool surface with a roller or surface cleaner.

 Filter Cleaning: Check and clean the filters regularly, depending on the pool's filtration system. If the filters need to be cleaned or replaced, do so.

  Cleaning the pool: Brush and clean the pool regularly. Vacuum regularly to prevent dirt and algae build-up.

 Chemical balance: Check the chemical balance of the pool water regularly and add the necessary chemicals. Make sure the pH level, disinfection level and other chemical parameters are in the correct range.

  It is important to create a program suitable for the needs of the pool by considering the factors mentioned above when determining the cleaning period. You may also want to consider getting professional help to clean your pool or getting help from someone who specializes in pool maintenance.
