In the summer, in Quebec, we love having a pool at home. It's a must to cool off and have fun.
What we like less is its maintenance! We want clear water, but it's a lot of work to clean often. We don't want to spend the whole summer skimming, vacuuming, and playing with chemicals.
Even with the best equipment, having a pool is work!
If you have a pool, you will certainly want to know this simple cleaning trick, which aims to remove the greasy film left by sunscreen and our body oils.
To get rid of this greasy film, simply throw a few tennis balls into the pool. They will float on the surface of the water, absorbing the oils from the upper layer of the water. After a few hours, simply remove the tennis balls from the pool, put them in the washing machine, and they will be clean and ready to be reused! This will also work with spas.
Yes, the pool will still require some maintenance, but it's a simple trick to help keep your pool water clean and sparkling with minimal effort.
