Be careful, though, not to rush into the pool without taking a few essential precautions. There\u2019s no need to remind you that, before taking the plunge, your <strong>pool and its equipment must have been cleaned<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n<p>Remember also to <strong>remove all floating debris<\/strong> using a landing net. Some tiny bits of debris cannot be removed by hand, which is why you should start taking certain crucial steps now that will make a positive difference to the rest of your summer. <\/p>\n<h3>1. Carry out a water analysis<\/h3>\n<p>The first step is to <strong>test your water\u2019s parameters<\/strong>. This is, in fact, the first thing you should look at. Have you noticed an imbalance? Adjust the parameters to restore near-perfect balance and ensure you can enjoy pure, healthy water. You\u2019ll find more information about the products we recommend later in this article.    <\/p>\n<p>As you know, natural swimming pools are wonders of nature. They offer a <strong>refreshing and relaxing place to swim<\/strong>, whilst being environmentally friendly. But to ensure your<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/en\/how-works-basin-swimming-pool-biomineral-natural\/\"> natural swimming pool <\/a>remains clean and healthy, it is essential to maintain it properly by introducing bacteria into the filter.  <\/p>\n<h3>2. Add bacteria<\/h3>\n<p>bacteria <\/p>\n<p>Les bact\u00e9ries sont \u00e9videmment essentielles \u00e0 la sant\u00e9 de votre piscine bio-min\u00e9rale. Elles sont responsables de la <strong>d\u00e9gradation des d\u00e9bris organiques<\/strong> tels que les feuilles, les insectes et les autres mati\u00e8res organiques qui tombent dans l&#8217;eau. Les bact\u00e9ries convertissent ces d\u00e9bris en nutriments, ce qui contribue \u00e0 maintenir l&#8217;\u00e9quilibre biologique de votre piscine naturelle.  <\/p>\n<p>Therefore, seeding your filter with bacteria is an absolute must, especially during sunny weather. In warm, humid conditions, the bacteria multiply and get to work almost immediately to keep your natural swimming pool clean and healthy. <\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the Vitii filtration system, mineral balance is maintained through automation and regulation, which is a real advantage. <strong>Thanks to automation, minerals and bacteria are injected directly into the filtration system<\/strong>, ensuring the biological balance of the water. So, you no longer need to worry about dosages or adding products to the water manually; everything is done automatically. Handy, isn\u2019t it?<br \/>*** Translated with www.DeepL.com\/Translator (free version) ***  <\/p>\n<p>Find out about the other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/en\/advantage-swimming-pool-basin-biomineral-natural-eczema-irritation-odeur-chlorine\/\">benefits of Vitii filtration<\/a> (plant-free, sustainable, heated, lower energy consumption, etc.).<\/p>\n<h3>Which products should I use?<\/h3>\n<p>There are <strong>several biological treatment products<\/strong> available that can be used to seed your filter and restore the water parameters to normal. However, you must keep an eye on <strong>the expiry date and storage conditions<\/strong> (at room temperature or in a cool place, depending on the product). This is because some bacteria are perishable. It is therefore essential to <strong>replace them every year<\/strong> to ensure they remain effective.   <\/p>\n<h4><strong>A) Vitii Bacteri+<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The Vitii Bacteri+ box is the ideal solution for ensuring effective water filtration. The beneficial microorganisms it contains are essential for maintaining optimal water quality and a pleasant swimming experience. We therefore recommend that you replace your Vitii Bacteri+ consumable pack before reopening your pool. Once opened, the product has a shelf life of just 12 months. That is why we recommend replacing it every year if you wish to ensure its effectiveness.    <\/p>\n<p>When it comes to restoring the balance of your water parameters, there are three options available to you to improve filtration and clarify the water:<\/p>\n<h4><strong>B) Vitii Citri (pH-)<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Vitii pH- is a natural acidic solution made from lemon juice that helps to lower and regulate the pH of the water, keeping it balanced. Factors such as rainwater, fallen leaves and water treatments can affect the pH of the water. The optimal pH for water is between 7.2 and 8.0, as a value that is too high can be detrimental to filtration.  <\/p>\n<h4><strong>C) Vitii Calci<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Vitii Calci is a mineral solution containing calcium that helps to increase the total hardness of the water. Rain can reduce hardness, whilst evaporation concentrates it, so it is important to check the mineral balance of the water regularly, especially after heavy rain and during dry spells. If the total hardness is too low, it can impair filtration.  <\/p>\n<h4><strong>D) Vitii Carboni<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Vitii Carboni is a mineral solution that increases the carbonate hardness of the water. Rain can lower this hardness, whilst evaporation increases it. If carbonate hardness is too low, it can impair filtration and the water\u2019s balance. It is therefore important to check the water\u2019s mineral content regularly, especially after heavy rain and during periods of drought, and to adjust it if necessary.   <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-987628849 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/vitii-conso-.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/vitii-conso-.png 750w, https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/vitii-conso--480x128.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 750px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The automatic system works in exactly the same way as the one for bacteria. There\u2019s no need to worry about measuring out the products yourself, as they are dispensed automatically without any manual intervention. <\/p>\n<p>Please feel free to read our article to find out more about how a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/en\/how-it-works-filtration-swimming-pool-pond-biomineral-natural\/\">natural swimming pool works using Vitii filtration<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>A natural swimming pool requires patience<\/h2>\n<p>It is also important to remember that you need <strong>to be patient<\/strong> when seeding your filter. Unfortunately, biological balance is not achieved overnight. It usually takes <strong>several weeks<\/strong> for the bacteria to start working effectively and maintain a healthy environment for swimming. It is important to allow time for the water to regain its balance.   <\/p>\n<p>A <strong>biofilm <\/strong>can form on surfaces that have not been cleaned thoroughly, appearing as a slippery coating or green\/brown stains. The absence of biocidal products means that greater care must be taken when cleaning surfaces using a robot and ensuring regular cleaning. <\/p>\n<p>It is also advisable to continue <strong>monitoring <\/strong>the pH, hardness levels and other water quality indicators on a regular basis, to ensure that swimming is environmentally friendly and that bathers remain healthy.<\/p>\n<h2>Crystal-clear water with emerald hues<\/h2>\n<p>Once this investment is complete and you\u2019ve shown a little patience, the result will be breathtaking. Just like a lagoon, the bio-mineral pool will take on <strong>natural, slightly turquoise hues<\/strong>. It\u2019s sure to be the envy of your friends and family, who won\u2019t hesitate to drop by for a barbecue to enjoy the benefits of your pool.  <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-987628850\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/banniere_piscine_02.jpg\" alt=\"A swimming pool with emerald-green hues\" width=\"1770\" height=\"201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/banniere_piscine_02.jpg 1770w, https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/banniere_piscine_02-1280x145.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/banniere_piscine_02-980x111.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.vitii-pool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/banniere_piscine_02-480x55.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1770px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>In conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Finally, testing your water parameters and inoculating your bio-mineral pool filter with bacteria is essential for maintaining a healthy and pleasant swimming environment.
