Fact #1. The earliest swimming pool was likely dug around 3000 BCE, in what is modern-day Pakistan. Called the Great Bath, this pool was about 900 square feet in total. It was lined with bricks that were sealed by a tar-like substance. While it would've been big enough to serve the purpose, the Great Bath was no community pool. Scholars believe it was used for religious ceremonies by bathers who believed they were purifying their souls in the water.
Fact #2. Both the ancient Greeks and Romans built large pools for sports training and nautical military games and exercises. Some wealthy Romans even had personal pools for swimming. It may sound strange to modern ears, but Roman emperors were known to even keep fish in these swimming pools.
Fact #3. Although many models and variations are available, choosing the right brush to clean your pool doesn't have to be daunting. Start with the basic 18-inch nylon model. This utility brush is ideal for swiping away the dust and debris that rapidly collects at the bottom of the pool. If your pool was recently installed, you should use a nylon brush as often as three times a day to prevent discoloration caused by calcium.
Fact #4. If it's been a while since your pool was cleaned, and there are both algae growth and stains, you'll need to take a different approach. Combination bristle brushes are an excellent choice for cleaning algae and mild staining. These brushes are typically half nylon and half stainless steel. They aren't recommended for frequent use.
Fact #5. For severe stains and persistent black algae, you'll need an even more aggressive approach. If a severe stain can be removed, a stainless steel brush will do the job. Unfortunately, these brushes can damage your pool plaster. Any brush with stainless steel bristles should be used as little as possible.
