Top Tips For Your Pool During La Nina Weather
Don’t let La Niña ruin your summer of poolside fun! With predictions of a long, wet summer ahead, this can have serious complications for your pool.
Heavy rainfall means leaves, dirt and algae spores get delivered into your pool. Phosphates get deposited into the water and chlorine, salt and minerals are diluted. Combined with sunlight, these conditions are perfect for algae to grow and turn your healthy pool, into a green pool. It also affects the water’s pH, calcium hardness, total dissolved solids, alkalinity and other chemical levels.
What is La Nina?
The Bureau of Meteorology has warned Australians to expect a La Niña summer, which is set to bring mass wet weather across the nation – with backyard pool owners warned to prepare for a whirlpool of challenges.
What are the effects of La Niña?
Typically during La Niña seasons, there is above average rainfall for eastern, northern and central parts of Australia, with extra rain, some storms and possibly even flooding expected.
Poolwerx Founder and CEO John O’Brien says the effects of this excess rain are pretty significant on your pool and could have a huge impact on backyard summer fun.
“It is pivotal for pool owners to prepare in advance, and work with their local Poolwerx team to manage these effects during and after the season, to ensure they still have a healthy pool to create backyard family memories in. The solution is simple – prepare in advance and take the necessary steps to avoid greater cost and energy to remedy the situation after summer.”
La Nina & Your Pool
The effects of this excess rain can have a significant impact on your pool’s health if you don’t look after it properly.
Along with the usual culprits that accompany heavy rain, such as debris, garden runoffs, overflow and contaminates, La Niña brings additional long-term consequences – the dilution of pool chemicals, green pools, and increased risk of mosquito-borne viruses.
Below is our easy guide to help you maintain a healthy pool during La Niña.

Why Investing in a Quality Pool Cover is Important
A pool cover is a must for any pool owner, which is why it’s important to invest in a quality cover to help save time and money on pool maintenance.
But not all pool covers are the same. Solar Covers (also known as bubble blankets and bubble wrap covers) are primarily used to stop evaporation and maintain water temperature. Other options include winter leaf covers, non-heating solar pool covers, and thermal covers. Plus, there are also other factors to consider including the micron thickness and installation – all of which impact the efficiency and longevity of your pool cover.
What are Microns?
This is the measurement of the thickness of the pool cover material, excluding the bubble. For instance, 1/1000th = 1mm, which means a 500-micron pool cover is 0.5mm thick.
Pool covers come in a variety of micron sizes from 250 microns to 600 microns and the thickness depends on the purpose of the cover. As you would expect the higher the microns of the pool cover, the better the quality and durability.
At Poolwerx we install Abgal Pool Covers and Sunbather Pool Covers which come with quality assurance and warranty for your peace of mind.
Why is a Custom Pool Cover Better?
All pool shapes and sizes are different, so your pool cover should be custom-made to fit your pool. This means you’re guaranteed a pool cover that not only fits properly but is also properly installed. At Poolwerx, our experienced technicians can provide a free quote and discuss the best type of pool cover to suit your needs. s Enjoy a hassle-free experience and no nasty surprises like incorrect sizing or gaps around the blanket!
There’s a host of benefits to a pool cover including reduced water and chemical costs, easier pool maintenance, and a cleaner pool. So, make sure you invest in a long-lasting pool cover that benefits your pool.

Pool Equipment You Need This Summer
With the weather heating up, it is important to have the right accessories and pool equipment to ensure your pool is swim-ready and in good working order. How can you best prepare your pool for Summer?
Here’s our ultimate list of must-have pool equipment in 2021.
1. Pool Covers
A quality pool cover can prevent the evaporation of your pool’s water, keep rain, leaves, dirt, and debris out of your pool or help control your pool’s temperature.
Benefits of a Pool Cover in Summer:
Reduce your energy costs
Reduce evaporation and the amount of water you’re using
Protects and reduces the time you spend on pool maintenance.
If you’re unsure what size, style, or type of pool cover you need, or you’re after assistance with an install, your local Poolwerx can help!
2. Robotic Pool Cleaners
Wouldn’t you rather be enjoying your pool rather than cleaning it? That’s why robotic pool cleaners are a worthwhile investment.
There are several reasons why a robotic pool cleaner will make your life easier and is number #2 in our ultimate list of pool equipment for summer 2021.
3 Reasons Why We Love Pool Robotic Pool Cleaners:
They help you save time: using smart technology the robotic pool cleaners from Poolwerx, clean your pool in half the time a suction cleaner does;
They’re energy-efficient: robotic pool cleaners run on independent low energy motors and do not rely on using your pool pump and associated equipment to work;
They’re easy to use: with plug-and-play technology that can be used via the app with most models.
Clean your pool faster with a robotic pool cleaner, and with advanced technology, modern-day pool cleaners can map out the surface of your pool, cleaning, scrubbing, and vacuuming the pool walls and floor.
Our Aquawize robotic pool cleaning range incorporates smart technology and provides the ultimate pool cleaning experience. With caddy included as standard, 18m cable, and a two-year warranty, the Aquawize robot cleaner is pool care, made smart.
Save on time, power, water, and pool chemicals.
Contact your local Poolwerx to learn more.
3. Pool Lighting
Illuminate your pool with an iridescent glow and enjoy summer nights poolside.
Warm, balmy summer nights call for a lighting solution that allows you to extend your swimming time into the evenings.
Whether you’re building a concrete, fibreglass, or vinyl pool, or simply just looking to upgrade your lights, Poolwerx has a pool lighting solution to bring the wow to your backyard.
Contact your local Poolwerx to learn more.
4. Pool Scoop and Brush
Did you know that sticks and leaves carry bacteria and if left in the water too long, may cause algae to grow? If left for a prolonged period, it could turn your swimming pool cloudy or green.
The ultimate pool accessory and a household necessity, the pool scoop and/or pool brush is a handy tool if you do not have a pool cover or robotic pool cleaner. A scoop is an easy and effective way to skim the debris off the pool surface, whilst the brush is effective in cleaning the pool walls and reducing scum build-up.
5. Pool Minerals
The experience of swimming in a mineral pool has been prized over the centuries, in part because it feels incredible, and for its therapeutic qualities.
Mineral pools are packed full of benefits and hugely popular in backyards across the country. With the ability to alleviate aches and pains, soothe skin, promote relaxation and improve wellbeing, there are many reasons why we love a magnesium mineral pool.
Benefits of a Mineral Pool System:
Gentle on skin and eyes
Reduces the need for multiple chemicals, saving on time, money, and maintenance
If you’re looking to install a new pool or would like to transition your existing pool to a mineral pool, your local Poolwerx can help! For more information on our products, find your nearest Poolwerx and get in touch with an expert!

We stock a wide range of industry-leading chemicals at Poolwerx, such as algaecides, balancers, stabilisers, cleaners, stain removers, spa chemicals, and much more!
