What a week does to Florida water
Sunlight breaks chlorine down, warm water speeds up algae, and a single storm can dilute the whole pool. Those three together are why South Florida pools need attention more often than pools up north.
When bi-weekly can work
A screened pool with a salt system, little shade debris and an owner who checks levels between visits can sometimes go longer in the cooler months. Open pools under trees almost never can.
Screened vs unscreened pools
A screen keeps leaves out but not pollen or fine dust. An open pool needs more skimming and the baskets fill faster, which matters more than the calendar.
