(BPT) – After any kind of severe storm, cleaning up your swimming pool may seem daunting. Between the tree branches and leaves, random debris, and generally dirty water in your pool after the stormy weather has passed, it’s hard to know where to start. Fortunately, the experts at Leslie’s<\/a> have some easy-to-follow tips and advice to help you get your pool back in great shape, so your family can enjoy it once again.<\/p>\n

Your pool’s water needs to be about halfway up the skimmer. After a heavy rainfall, it’s likely that excess water has overfilled your pool. If necessary, you can lower the water level with the help of a submersible pump<\/a> or by backwashing your sand or D.E. filter until the level is where it’s supposed to be.
