With the continuous rise in national temperatures, the peak season for swimming pool operations in the summer of 2026 has officially arrived. The Swimming Sports Management Center of the General Administration of Sport of China issued a special notice on June 2, requiring swimming venues in all regions to fully implement safety management responsibilities, strengthen water quality control and equipment maintenance, and strictly prevent drowning accidents and water quality safety incidents. As a professional supplier of swimming pool water treatment equipment, Guangdong Bilanda Water Treatment Equipment Co., Ltd. combines industry authoritative standards and years of service experience to release the summer swimming pool operation and maintenance core guide for global customers, helping them operate safely, efficiently, and at low cost.
Three core pain points and solutions for summer pool operation and maintenance
The environmental characteristics of high temperature, high passenger flow, and strong ultraviolet radiation in summer bring three major challenges to the operation and maintenance of swimming pools: deteriorating water quality, heavy equipment load, and high safety risks. In response to these issues, Bilanda has proposed targeted solutions:
Accurate water quality control and strict prevention of algae outbreaks. According to the GB 37488-2019 standard, the water quality of swimming pools in summer needs to be tested daily for three core indicators: pH value (7.2-7.6), residual chlorine (0.3-1.0mg/L), and turbidity (≤ 1NTU). Under high temperature weather, the growth rate of algae increases exponentially. It is recommended to shorten the water cycle cycle from the conventional 6 hours to 4 hours and the children's pond to 2 hours. The Bilanda high-efficiency sand tank filter adopts a thickened quartz sand filter layer (≥ 700mm), with a filtration accuracy of up to 5 μ m. Combined with regular backwashing (starting when the pressure difference is ≥ 0.05MPa), it can effectively remove suspended solids and algal spores in water, greatly reducing the use of chemical agents.
High frequency inspection of equipment to avoid sudden failures. In summer, swimming pool equipment operates 24 hours a day without interruption, resulting in a significant increase in failure rates. The Chinese Swimming Association suggests that the circulating water pump should be checked daily for sound and vibration, and the hair collector should be cleaned weekly; Check the sealing rubber strip and pressure gauge of the sand cylinder every month; Disinfection equipment is calibrated for dosing accuracy every quarter. The Bilanda energy-saving silent circulating water pump adopts an IP68 waterproof level design and an efficient permanent magnet motor, which can operate stably in high temperature and high humidity environments. Compared with traditional fixed frequency water pumps, it reduces energy consumption by more than 30%, effectively reducing customer operating costs.
Upgrading safety facilities and strengthening safety defenses. The General Administration of Sport of China has emphasized the need to strengthen safety protection around swimming pools during the summer, equip sufficient lifeguards and life-saving equipment, and prominently display safety instructions and emergency phone numbers. Bilanda's full range of swimming pool accessories products, including pool escalators, swimming wires, anti slip grilles, etc., are strictly produced in accordance with international safety standards and have the characteristics of anti slip, corrosion resistance, and strong load-bearing capacity, providing swimmers with comprehensive safety protection.
The person in charge of after-sales service at Guangdong Bilanda said, "Summer is the golden period for swimming pool operation and also the high-risk period for safety accidents. We not only provide customers with high-quality products, but also offer professional technical support and operation guidance. The company has opened a 24-hour emergency service hotline in summer to solve equipment failure problems for customers at any time, ensuring that global customers' swimming pools can safely and smoothly pass the peak season of operation
