Things You'll Need:

• Pool
• Chlorine
• Chlorine Alternatives
• Scrubbing Brush
• Pool Skimmer Net
• Pool Vacuum

1. 
   Inflatable pool

   If you have a pool like the one pictured, it is recommend that you drain the pool and simply scrub the interior with a pool brush and rinse the pool out with soap. Since this pool is small, it's easier to drain the pool and refill it when ready for use.

2. 
   Inflatable pool with pool filter

   If you have a pool like the one pictured, your pool comes with a water filter. Most of the water filters are designed to help circulate the pool water and keep algae and other bacterias from forming. It is recommended that you run your filter for at least an hour a day.

3. 
   Above ground chlorine dispenser

   To keep your pool clean, it is recommended that you purchase an above ground chlorine dispenser, as pictured. This dispenser hold the chlorine tablets and floats in your pool. When you run your filter, the dispenser circulates around the pool, dispensing the chlorine.

Tips & Warnings

• Chlorine can be harmful to little children. There are many chlorine alternatives, such as Bromine, Salt Walter Filtration Systems, Ionizers, and even chlorine-free chemical treatments which are much safer for kids.
• ALWAYS test your pool water to ensure that your chlorine levels, as well as pH and others, are well balanced.
