Whilst these can be signs of other problems such as pool filter issues or lack of chlorine, a key part of what keeps your pool clean and useable is your pool pump.

Why is your pool pump so important?

It is paramount that the water in swimming pools is circulated properly. This circulation moves the water through the heating systems but most importantly through the filtration system, keeping your pool clean and sanitary.
