🏊 Autumn-Proof Your Pool in Malta with Bayrol Products

Malta’s Mediterranean climate means pool season lasts longer — but that also brings specific challenges as you transition into autumn. High humidity, lingering heat, and stormy days can take a toll on your pool water and equipment.

Bayrol offers professional-grade pool care products that help you protect your pool during Malta’s unique off-season. Here's how to prepare your pool this autumn, Maltese style.

🍁 Why Autumn Matters — Even in Malta

• Warm water + sun = algae thrive well into November

• Rain + wind = more debris and organic matter in the pool

• Neglect now = green, murky water by spring

• Scale buildup from Malta’s hard water worsens if ignored

  
  

So don’t just cover and forget. With Bayrol’s help, a bit of effort now can save you hundreds in chemicals and cleaning next spring.

✅ Step-by-Step: Autumn Pool Prep with Bayrol

1. Balance Your Water (pH First!)

Before anything else, test and adjust your pH to 7.0–7.4.

• Use Bayrol pH-Minus or pH-Plus

• Balanced pH ensures chlorine and other chemicals work properly

  
  

2. Clean Like It’s Spring

• Skim leaves, insects, and debris

• Vacuum floor and brush walls

• Empty skimmer baskets and clean filters

  
  

3. Shock and Sanitize

Even if you're still swimming occasionally, give your pool a shock treatment to reset the water:

• Use Bayrol Chlorifix, Chloriklar, or Chloryte for rapid disinfection

• Continue with your usual chlorination routine afterward

  
  

4. Add Winter Protection with Puripool® Super

Even in Malta, algae can grow during mild winters. Bayrol’s Puripool® Super:

• Prevents algae and scale formation

• Keeps water clear even without full winterisation

• Doesn’t foam — ideal for Maltese pools with covers

🌀 Dealing with Malta’s Hard Water

Scale is a big issue locally due to high calcium content. Use Bayrol Decalcit Filter to:

• Clean sand or cartridge filters

• Prevent clogging and inefficiency

• Extend filter life

  
  

🧊 Should You Fully Winterize?

Malta’s winters are mild, so you may not need full winterization, but you should still:

• Reduce pump running time (e.g. 2–4 h/day)

• Install a winter cover to protect from dust, debris, and rain

• Lower water level slightly if pool is prone to overflow in storms

• Use winterizing floats in skimmers if you expect rare frost
