Agent Notes
Vendors’ Swimming Pool Running Costs and Maintenance
The vendors have advised that their total annual expenditure for the pool is approximately £300, covering the cost of chemicals and electricity for the pump.
The vendors have also provided the following list of maintenance actions which they complete regularly during the warmer months.
1. Test: They dip a test strip in the water and match the strip colours to the chart on the bottle. They aim to keep the pH and total alkalinity in the ideal range, following the instructions on the chemical bottles
2. Chlorine: They add chlorine tablets to clean the water. When the water temperature drops below 10° they add a tablet once a month and run the pump for one hour per day so it stays clear and clean over winter
3. Run Pump: They have set a timer to run the pump for six hours everyday
4. Clean Basket: They empty out any leaves from the plastic basket and vacuum the bottom of the pool when necessary.
All of the above is reflective of the vendors’ personal swimming pool running costs and maintenance. Other users may have different requirements and associated costs.
