Orlando Pool : How Swimming Pools Work

Swimming pools are one of the best inventions because they allow your family to have fun in the sun all year round. While many people assume swimming pools are simple, there is more to pools than meets the eye. They may seem like just a big basin of water, but there is a lot of interesting technology at work in your Orlando pool - a lot more than you may expect.

So how do pools really work? All Seasons Pools, your Orlando pool builder, explains the process here.

Although pools can be in all different shapes, sizes, and types, they all work in the same basic way. To put it simply, they use a combination of filtration and chemical treatments to continuously clean all the water in which you and your family swim! Your Orlando pool needs seven major components:

1. A basin

2. A motorized pump

3. A water filter

4. A chemical feeder

5. Drains

6. Returns

7. PVC plastic plumbing

The pool pumps water in a continuous cycle. The water goes from the pool through the filtering and chemical treatment systems and back to the pool again. The pumping system keeps the water in the swimming pool pretty much free of dirt, debris and bacteria. Some pools have water heaters as well that is additional part of the cycle, and that keeps the water at a certain temperature.
