If you own a swimming pool, you need to place safety first. In addition to thinking about safety on the pool deck, you also have to think about safety around the pool deck. That means investing in a solid fence. First, understand that there is a good chance having a fence around your pool is probably required by law. Your swimming pool should have a fence on all four sides. If there is a gate in your fence, the gate should automatically close after someone walks through it. There are several reasons why you should invest in a pool fence. These include: You can keep unwanted people out of your pool. You can prevent people from unwittingly wandering onto your property, falling into the swimming pool. You can significantly reduce the chances of someone drowning in your pool. There are lots of options available for pool fencing, depending on your budget and style. What should you look for in a pool fence? What To Look For in a Great Pool Fence Some important factors that you should consider in your pool fence include: Safety First: Obviously, this is the most crucial factor. Typical backyard fences are designed to keep pets in place. Some backyard fences simply serve an ornamental purpose. Your pool fence needs to keep people out, especially children, who may wander into the pool unintentionally. Compliance with Regulations: You should also make sure your swimming pool fence is compliant with local regulations. Typically, pool fences have to be at least four feet tall. They also have to have a gate that will close and latch on its own. The specifications on pool fence regulations can vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Make sure you redo your guidelines. Privacy: Finally, swimming pools are an attractive feature. A lot of people are going to have their attention drawn to the beautiful deck and blue water. If you do not want people watching you while you sunbathe, you should invest in a privacy fence. These are a few of the criteria you should consider if you are looking for a pool fence. What are the specific options available? Categories of Pool Fences First, you can separate your pool fences into two separate categories. The first category is a perimeter fence. A perimeter fence encloses the entirety of your yard. Usually, this fence will follow your property line. A perimeter fence is a backyard fence that doubles as a safety barrier for your swimming pool. You will simply apply the criteria for a pool fence to your backyard fence. The other category is called an interior fence. This is a pool fence that's within your yard. It encloses a smaller area, including your swimming pool. If you have small children, this is the type of fence that you want. It allows children to run around in the backyard without unknowingly wandering into the swimming pool. Material Choices for Your Swimming Pool Fence Now, it is time to take a closer look at material choices for your swimming pool fence. Some choices include: Wood is one of the most popular choices. They are attractive, provide privacy, and come in numerous colors. On the other hand, a wood fence does require extra maintenance. Keep in mind if the wood gets wet and does not dry quickly, it may grow mold. PVC and Vinyl: These two options usually go together because they do not require any maintenance. Furthermore, they can get wet without growing any mold. If you are going to spend more time in the pool and less time sunbathing, this may be a good option. It does not provide the same level of privacy. Posts or Panels: Finally, you have to decide between posts and panels for your fence. If you want to see outside the pool area, you want posts. If you want to protect your privacy, you want panels. Think about these options if you are looking for a pool fence.

When it comes to summer pool fun, there is nothing like playing a few games. There are many individuals and families who are looking to stay cool this summer and the swimming pool provides the perfect opportunity to do this. While having plenty of sunscreen, towels, music, and food is a good idea, there will have to be a few games to keep the party going. That is where it is important to plan ahead. What are some of the top swimming pool games for 2020? There are a few key examples to keep in mind. Sharks and Minnows  Of course, this is one of the classic swimming pool games and it is just as popular today as it ever was. In this game, there is a single person who starts off as a shark. Then, everyone else is a minnow. When the shark yells for the minnows to get in the water, the goal is for each minnow to make it to the other side of the pool without getting tagged by the shark. If the shark tags a minnow, that minnow becomes a shark. The last minnow standing is declared the winner. Sharks and minnows typically involves diving, so make sure the pool is deep enough and that everyone dives safely! Pool Basketball There is nothing like playing  pool basketball. The added resistance of the water takes the game to a whole new level. In addition, treading water is a great form of exercise! While playing traditional basketball is a great place to start, don’t be afraid to play other games such as horse and knockout! In some cases, players might even try to make trick shots happen from the pool deck, a lounge chair, or even a window in the house! Just make sure that everyone stays safe while playing this fun swimming pool game! Pool Volleyball In addition to pool basketball,  pool volleyball is another classic. There are simple nets that can be deployed across a portion of the pool, making setup a breeze! Then, all that is needed is a volleyball! Depending on the height of the net, it might be possible for certain players to spike it! The depth of the water might provide an additional challenge, particularly if the players are not able to stand! Treading water provides another added challenge to this fun swimming pool game! Light Up Pool Games Are Fun After Dark It is not unusual for swimming pool parties to last late into the evening, so think about having a few fun swimming pool games to play once the sun goes down! This is where light-up toys are important. One simple game could involve dropping a series of light-up objects in the water and watching them drop to the bottom of the pool. Then, everyone can race to see who can collect the most objects from the bottom! Try to find objects that vary in color and size including diving sticks, border lights, lotus flowers, and more! Additional Team Games To Choose From For The Pool Finally, no swimming pool party lasts late into the evening without a little bit of encouragement. For those who know about the game of cornhole, think about finding a version of this game that will work well in the water! Find floating cornhole boards and deploy them in the water! Then, trying to drain a beanbag in the hole, or even getting one to stay on the board, will be a challenge as the board bobs and weaves in the water! There is nothing like the additional challenge of playing cornhole on the water! Find the Right Swimming Pool Games for the Next Party These are a few of the most popular swimming pool games of 2020. With so many swimming pool games from which to choose, why not take a look at some of the options and find a few for your next party! At Dunn Rite Pool Products, we have a wide array of choices from which to choose. We would be happy to help you find the right set of swimming pool games for your next party!

When it comes to your home, routine maintenance is important. This includes your swimming pool. Think of your pool as a giant bathtub. This is a bathtub that is outside, meaning that is can get much dirtier than a typical bathtub that sits inside. Now, you would never get into a bathtub that is dirty. The same concept applies to swimming pools. You also want to plan ahead with what type of pool you want depending on what you want to use it for such as pool sports or lounging.Easiest Pools to MaintainThe reality is that maintenance is inevitable when it comes to any swimming pool; however, some pools require more maintenance than others. While there are lots of factors that should play a role when you are looking for a swimming pool such as price, size, longevity, durability, and the possibility of repairs, maintenance is often overlooked. As a result, many people refer to maintenance as a hidden cost of owning a pool. When it comes to finding a swimming pool that requires the least amount of maintenance, it is important to consider the three most common types of swimming pools.Concrete Pools One of the most popular types of swimming pools is a concrete pool. Most people like them because they are the most sturdy. Most people also find them to be the most aesthetically pleasing as well. On the other hand, concrete pools are also the most expensive. This is true in terms of sticker price as well as maintenance. There are a number of reasons why concrete pools are so expensive to maintain. These include: The role of acid washing The possibility of algae that grow continuously The pool needs to be cleaned by a trained professional at least once per year Steel brushing is required for the pool at least once per week There are two circulations that the pool’s filter must carry out every day The pool needs to be refinished occasionally The chemistry of the water must be monitored closely With this in mind, many people who buy a concrete pool see this as an investment. As a result, they often hire a trained professional to help them maintain the pool.Vinyl Pools A vinyl swimming pool is probably the second most popular type of swimming pool. Those who choose to go with a vinyl pool often like this option because it is the cheapest in terms of sticker price. At the same time, there is still a fair bit of maintenance that has to be done with liner pools. These include: The liner is prone to tearing and leaking (because it is not concrete), so the liner might have to be replaced from time to time, which can be costly The water chemistry still needs to be followed closely The filter will have to circulate the water at least once per day There are some parts of the pool that might not have an adequate amount of circulation, which can lead to algae growth This list is shorter than concrete pools; however, there is still quite a bit that has to be done.Fiberglass Pools Finally, the easiest pool to maintain is called a fiberglass pool. The list of maintenance tasks with this type of pool is much shorter. Some of the tasks include: The water has to be circulated once per day by the filtration system The water chemistry has to be checked before the pool can be used A fiberglass pool is not prone to growing algae, which is one of the main reasons why this pool is easier to maintain. Anyone who is looking for a pool that doesn’t require a lot of maintenance may want to consider going with a fiberglass pool.Maintain Your Pool & Get Pool Accessories At Dunn Rite Pool Products, we are here to help you complete your vision of your pool.

If you are looking for a great way to enjoy the summer sun, you could be thinking about hosting a pool party with a  pool volleyball game in your backyard or taking a stroll to the nearby neighborhood pool. At the same time, you might also be wondering what gives pools their blue color. While most people know that a green pool or a brown pool is something to stay far away from (or clean up if they own it), why is blue the right color of a pool? How do we know that a blue pool is safe for use? There are a few points to keep in mind. Why Swimming Pools Are Blue If you are looking for something to drink and you pour a glass of water, you do not want it to be blue. In fact, you expect it to be clear, right? On the other hand, you are totally fine jumping in a pool that is blue. In fact, you expect it. Why is this the case? Reflects Sky There are a few major reasons why pools are blue. First, pools tend to turn blue because they are reflecting the sky. The sky is blue, so the water in pools tends to look blue as well. While this is a part of the argument, it is not the entirety of the explanation. Blue Tiles or Fiberglass Next, pools still look blue even when the sky is mostly cloudy, so there must be more to it, right? Yes! Pools are also blue because many people use blue tiles or fiberglass to construct their pools. Therefore, even though the water itself appears blue, people see the tiles or fiberglass underneath, which has been constructed to be blue. People like blue tiles and fiberglass because they expect to see a blue pool. The clear water looks blue due to the construction materials. Water Molecules Even this is not enough to explain everything. It is also important to explore the chemistry of how water molecules work. Water molecules get their energy from the sunlight that strikes them. When light strikes the water molecules, they absorb some of the visible spectrum while reflecting other colors. In this case, the water molecules absorb the red wavelengths of light from the sun. In return, they reflect the other types of light. This includes blue. As a result, water molecules in the pool reflect blue light to the eyes of nearby swimmers and sunbathers, causing the water to look blue. Water Depth Finally, some people would also like to know what determines how blue the water looks to the naked eye. This has to do with the depth of the water. The deeper the pool goes, the more opportunity there is for light to get absorbed by other water molecules along the way. This is what makes pools that are particularly deep that much darker when thinking about how blue they look. How to Turn Swimming Pools Blue If you walk outside and expect to see a blue pool, you might be surprised if this is your first trip out there this summer. Green pools are a common problem. This tends to happen due to algae that might be present in the pool. The good news is that a chlorine shock can clear out the algae quickly. Then, the pool filter can be used to remove the dead algae the next day. Finally, you can resume your regular pool maintenance, helping the pool turn that beautiful blue color once again.

For those who have a swimming pool in the backyard, this is a fun way to not only stay cool during the summer heat but also entertain family members and friends. On the other hand, maintaining a pool is also hard work. Those who do not keep up with their pool maintenance might be disappointed when they see the quality of their water. Water can go from cloudy to hazy and even green in the matter of a few days. The good news is that there are a few ways to keep the pool water crystal clear. Maintain Optimum Chemical Levels in The Swimming Pool There is a common misconception that pool water can never be “crystal clear” because the chlorine will turn it blue. This is simply not the case. Many pools have blue water because they are a reflection of the blue sky. In order to keep the pool water crystal clear, it is important to maintain the right chemical levels. The two most important levels are the pH and chlorine levels. Chlorine in the pool is used to kill both germs and bacteria. By killing these germs, bacteria will not be able to change the color of the pool. The chlorine levels should be between 1.0 and 3.0 parts per million, often shortened to PPM. The pool’s pH level is used to measure how acidic or basic the water gets. The ideal pH is between 7.2 and 7.6. If the pool’s pH level is out of balance, not only will it be unsafe but it will also start to change color. Provide Shock and Algaecide for the Pool Weekly One of the most commonly overlooked steps of pool maintenance involves shock and algaecide. Those who are wondering why their pools turn green should know that the most common culprit is algae. Even if the chlorine and pH are within safe limits, there is some pool algae that may still grow around the pool, causing the water to turn green. Shock and algaecide can be used to kill the algae, ensuring the pool water remains crystal clear. Now, these are strong chemicals that need to be used correctly. Therefore, make sure to read the package before using it. The amount required is going to vary with the size of the pool. Try to use shock and algaecide once per week to kill pool algae. Algae can turn the water green, yellow, or hazy. Clean the Pool Filter The pool filter plays a critical role in keeping the water clear. Many people believe that the pool filters do not need to be changed as long as they skim the pool regularly. This is simply not true. Yes, it is important to skim the pool regularly; however, the pool filter also has to be cleaned. This is a process known as backwashing. The job of the pool filters is to clean dirt and debris that might otherwise be too small for the skimmer. If the filter gets clogged, it will not be able to do its job well. In order to backwash the filters, force water through the system in the opposite direction. When the water starts to look cloudy, this is one of the first places to look. Eventually, it might be time to replace the filters. Do this to keep the pool water crystal clear. Avoid Baking Soda Finally, it is important to address one of the most common misconceptions. Many people think that baking soda is a magical trick that can be used to kill anything in the pool. Do not use baking soda. It is a powerful base that will shoot up the pH in a matter of seconds. This is not a reliable pool chemical. Baking soda is best left to removing strange odors from the fridge. At Dunn-Rite, we are here for all of your summer pool needs.
