Does the water In swimming pools ever get changed or do they just keep cleaning the old water?
Answers:
High TDS is caused by chemicals added to the pool and minerals and metals in the fill water. They don't evaporate out. A high TDS then stops the sanitizers in the pool from working effectively.
Don't think of it as gross, that water is better sanitized as a rule, than your own drinking water. Have you ever stopped and thought about the fact that the water you come across in your daily life, was at one time drank by someone or something else (since the earth was formed) and peed out? It has. Pool filters do artificially, what mother nature does.
My back 1.5 under roatates, do you know why?
They mostly just filter and chlorinate the old water. Once in a while they have to drain the pool to do maintenance and then re-fill it fresh.How many people go to school that has a swimming pool?
Good question. No idea though. Disgusting thought really, isn't it?Where are swimming schools in San Jose?Please give me the adress!?
Over time water, has to be replaced due to evaporation, splashing out, etc. You can lose a LOT of water on a hot or windy dayBut for the most part, the old water gets the nasty 'People soup' filtered out and chlorine kills any buggies floating in there.
it just keep cleaning the old water
What is it about swimming that makes people happy?
Most of the time the water is just chlorinated (sometimes other stuff like UV filtering or addition of ozone) and run through a filtration system. Once a day the pool system is backwashed which basically dumps a load of water and refills it (keepin it simple, its just a way to keep the filters clean) but when maintanance is needed the pool is completely drained then refilled.Has anyone competed in the Hawaiin ironman?
The best swimming pools get chlorinated frequently n changed for once in two months i thinkI want to join the high school swim team.?
Well When I Was In Juniors School They Had A Swimming Pool And They Cleaned It Every Year Though out The Winter So The Water Was Fresh Come New TermBut The Public Ones Near Me And There Is 3 In A 6 Miles Radius's To Me Have Never Closed So I Guess They Just Clean Them With The Filters And Chloride In The Water
It is run through filters and cleaned that way, new water added to top it up. The pool where I work was emptied last year in order to have work done, the fire brigade came and emptied it, it took nearly 2 days, they also filled it after, which was fun to watch.
Usually a pools water will get changed every 1-2 months. Instead of closing the pool though they can do it in an afternoon and a night or night and morning. Depends on how big the pool is and opening times though. Some pools have to close if open all day every day.
Is it ok to wear regular briefs under boardshorts to swim?
It depends on the pool, where I am from, the pools are generally in contact with each other, there are three that are open year round. Each picks a block of time to close down usually in winter. They close the pool, make major repairs, drain the pool, remove stains in the lining, etc.Once a week (some pools do this nightly) the pool is back washed, extra chemicals are used, and a vacuum is used on the bottom of the pool. This is general and routine maintenance that occurs after hours.
In addition, locker rooms are disinfected nightly. talk about ew.
Does anyone make goggles that won't fall off while bodysurfing?
1.) the water is constantly drained through a main drain (at the bottom of the pool) & skimmers (those grill looking things around the pool)2.) they then go through a "large object" filter..basically catching all the hairs, bandaids..leaves..etc.
3.) then goes through numerous filters
4.) sand filters
5.) sanitatizing (chlorine)
6.) buffered
7.) and back out to the inlets
Lifeguards are in charge of usually checking the water every 1-3 hrs to add or lower the chlorine amount. Even if it IS resuing the same water...when it's filtered it's just as good as refilling the pool! + Once a year the pool gets closed for maitenance, and is drained! ^^
=] no worries!
Is Jello Powder really a good energy source?
actually, there are some swimming pools here in asia, in Manila for example, where once in a while, say once a year, all of the water in the pool are completely removed and drained and replaced with a fresh batch of tap water with fresh chlorine added. These pools are therefore off limits for swimming for a week to let the chlorine vaporize to nontoxic levels. This is usually done after the monsoon season where heavy rains have been dumped into the pool making it too dirty for swimming.More Questions & Answers...
