Swimming pool water quality journal
Pool water checks: temperature, chlorine, pH, and clarity. Pool water must be safe for every visitor. Measurements before opening and throughout the day show that disinfection is working and that the pool was closed promptly if readings went outside the limits.
What this log is for
The electronic pool water log lets the technician enter readings on a phone at the poolside. Deviations are immediately visible, and the inspection log prints with one click.
