Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I monitor my pool water temperature?

Water temperature directly affects how pool chemicals work. Chlorine, for example, dissipates faster in warmer water and is less effective in very cold water. Knowing your pool temperature helps you adjust chemical dosing correctly, understand algae risk (algae grows faster in warm water), and ensure the pool is comfortable for swimming. For spas and hot tubs, temperature monitoring is also important for safety — water above 40°C can be dangerous for extended soaking.

How do I use the anchor cord?

Thread the anchor cord through the loop at the top of the thermometer and tie or clip the other end to a pool ladder, skimmer basket, or pool edge fitting. This keeps the thermometer in a fixed position in the pool rather than drifting with water movement, giving you a consistent reading from the same location each time.

Is this suitable for spa and hot tub use?

Yes — the Aussie Gold floating thermometer reads up to 70°C (150°F), which covers the full operating temperature range of residential spas and hot tubs. The UV and chemical-resistant plastic is also suitable for the higher chemical concentrations used in spa water.
