ok so i am buying a new home in which includes an inground pool. the pool has been properly maintained so its not in need of repair or anything, i need to know how to maintain a pool's care. what chemicals i need to buy? and how often do i use them?
what could possibly make someone want to answer a question like the first person did?
Answer
The two main "cleaners" in your pool is the filter and the chemical sanitizer, the that chlorine or bromine. Both need to be working properly. The filter removes the "dead bodies" of the algae (that the chlorine killed) and well as other small debris, so it behooves you to run the filter often and long enough to completely cleanse the water. Size of pool and pump/filter determine the number of hours per week.
The chlorine will work the best in water of a certain pH level (acid/akaline). You need to test the water daily. Normally there is little change unless it has rained a lot or other factors. Testing also includes testing the chlorine level (or bromine, whatever you are using).
For bigger debris it is easier to skim it off with the long handled screens.
You do need to get to a pool supply store and see if they have a pamphlet on how to maintain a pool. They will also become your supplier for chemicals, advice and problem solving.
I haven't gotten to heaters, backwashing, etc. There are many web sites with pretty good advice on pool maintenance. You need to read many of these. It sounds complicated, but it really isn't. They mention automatic pool cleaners (bless the person who invented those), pool covers (mandatory) and cleaning the walls etc of the pool.
Yeah, come to think about it, maybe you do want to hire someone...(giggle) to do all the work.

best swimming pool cleaner?

Answer
when you say Cleaner do you mean sanitizer for your water, such as Chlorine, Bromine, or Softswim/Baquacil (essentially the same product) Or do you mean Automatic cleaner for your pool for leaves and sand etc etc?
You need to be a little more specific......
Either way... Any of the above chemicals is proven and tested to be effective in cleaning your water and keeping it safe, in coordination with your pool pump and filter naturally..
As for a automatic cleaner.... there are many of them on the market, some are really busts, while some are effective, and actually do a good job. If you have an inground pool, i would say without a doubt that the best cleaner would be the Polaris automatic pool cleaner. IT only takes 1-2 hours a day to effectively clean your pool, and keep it clear of everything. There were many pools i would never have to vac out when i serviced them because of this cleaner.
As for an above ground pool, you are pretty much limited to different types of cleaners that are usually electric in nature, and are just thrown into the pool and when you plug them in, they go around and around and clean the pool...
If you are asking for a cleaner in regards to tile, Most of the major chemical suppliers for swimming pools make chemical cleaners for the tile, and the pool in general that will not harm the water or the balance of the water.
Again... without your question being more specific, i dont know if there is anything else i can help you with.
