Doughboy pools are a popular choice for outdoor pools as these are quite adaptable. These can be set up in the backyard and one can enjoy a relaxing time in their very own outdoor pool. However, it is also essential to take proper care of these pools to enhance their longevity. Here are some basic considerations that you should keep in mind in order to keep your Doughboy pool in a great condition:

Permits and codes –  There are communities who have preset limitations pertaining to where a Doughboy pool can be placed. These limitations refer to underground utilities, power lines, etc.

Landscaping –  Do you have large trees in your backyard or does your ground slope? If you are planning to get a Doughboy pool, you might need to alter your landscape so as to fit these pools efficiently.

Pool purpose   – The purpose of installing a Doughboy pool is very crucial as well. If you want your Doughboy pool to be a personal relaxing retreat, you don’t need to invest a lot in secondary items.

Soil stability –  Although people sometimes suggest installing Doughboy pools on a hard slab, this is not very comfortable. Whilst excavating the surface of the earth in order to level the sand, it is best to take a tamper and pack it down before adding any extra sand.

Skim the pool regularly –  Doughboy pools are often filled with debris that surrounds your background. Thus, skimming is crucial as it helps to keep the large particles from blocking the filters and also helps in avoiding the contamination of pool water.

Test the water – A pool test kit that is handed with all Doughboy pools must be adhered to in order to ensure that there is a proper balance of chlorine and other chemicals in the pool and also ensure that the water is safe to swim in.

Add chemicals as necessary –  It is best to follow the directions mentioned in the test kit that comes along with all Doughboy pools. Always add the required quantities to the water.
