Scrubbing

[Hendu2875]

How often and how necessary should I need to scruby my
vinyl pool ? I mean if the chlorine is kept up and no algae is able
to form what am I scrubbing ?

I brush mine once a week

But what are we brushing if there is no algae?

You're brushing, not scrubbing. A pool brush is pretty much just a stiff push broom.

For whatever reason, dust and pollen that lands in the pool likes to stick to the wall. Consider it dusting, not scrubbing. You just want to get it off there and into circulation so the filter can grab it.

Plus, it gives you time to reflect on how great your pool looks.

Good point!

I LOVE to brush my pool! It is so therapeutic. I usually do it late at night with the music on, a big cup of coffee and everyone has gone to bed. I do mine multiple times a week. I also have a robot that gets used pretty much daily. I can tell when it needs to be brushed the ole Z just doesn't get it it quite like I do.

A lot of times I am running the robot at the same time and I talk to it when it surfaces. My neighbors must think I am nuts.

Sometimes I can get through two beers or cups of coffee brushing my pool. I usually do it early in the morning or late in the evening to avoid the heat. Peaceful.

I don't mind brushing at all. Vacuuming....that's what Robots are for. I hate it.

Me too! If I need to do touch ups I use my Pool Master. I would rather walk over hot coals than do a vacuum. I don't even vacuum in my house. I use the Roomba!
