What Are the Benefits of Investing in Regular Pool Maintenance?

Invest in regular pool maintenance to keep your water quality in check. In addition to keeping your pool looking inviting with crystal-clear water, consistent maintenance prolongs your pool's lifespan by preventing wear and tear on its components, including your filter, pump, and heating systems.

You can also expect improved hygiene and safety because routine inspections ensure your pool's features remain in good condition. Well-maintained equipment runs more efficiently and allows filtration and circulation systems to work at their best. This efficiency leads to better water circulation, effective cleaning, and consistent water temperature.

Maintaining a clean pool reduces the risk of waterborne illnesses caused by bacteria and algae. Proper chemical levels and regular cleaning help create a healthy swimming environment.

Why Does Pool Care Require a Tailored Approach?

Each pool has unique needs for keeping its water balanced and safe. Applying the same blank treatment, cleaning methods, or maintenance routine can be inefficient.

The materials used in your pool's construction influence the care it requires. For example, vinyl-lined pools often require gentler chemical treatments compared to concrete or plaster pools, which can handle tougher cleaning methods.

Usage can also affect how often your pool needs maintenance. Commercial pools require daily chemical testing. If you host regular gatherings in your residential pool, you’ll likely benefit from more frequent filter cleanings and chemical adjustments.

What Common Concerns Can a Pool Company Address?

Certain pool issues require professional expertise, as they can arise despite your best efforts to maintain cleanliness and chemical balance. A thorough diagnosis can help alleviate the frustration of dealing with problems like persistent water discoloration or unstable chemical levels.

Often, the underlying causes involve multiple components of the pool system, though in some cases, simple fixes-such as cleaning the filters—may be all that’s needed to restore balance. Regardless, it’s important to enlist the help of a pool company when you run into problems.

Here are some common issues our pool company can address:

  • A failing pump: We address issues that prevent the pool pump from maintaining proper water circulation.
  • Recurring algae growth: We treat and prevent algae that repeatedly returns due to inadequate sanitization or poor water circulation.
  • Inconsistent chlorine levels: We resolve fluctuations in chlorine levels that can cause irritation or compromise pool safety.
  • A heater that isn’t working efficiently: We diagnose and repair heaters that are unable to maintain desired water temperatures.
  • Water pressure problems: We fix low water pressure problems, ensuring effective pool maintenance.

How Can You Tell if Your Pool Pump Is Failing?

Your pump is the heart of your pool’s circulation system, responsible for keeping the water clean and properly filtered. When it begins to fail, you’ll start experiencing various issues. Recognizing early signs of a failing pump can help you address issues before they escalate into costly repairs.

Here are a few key indicators to watch for that suggest your pool pump may need attention:

  • Cycling on and off: The pump turning on and off rapidly indicates a problem with the pressure switch. Inspecting and resetting or replacing this switch may be necessary.
  • Overheating: If the pump motor is too hot to touch, it may be working too hard due to blockages or insufficient water flow. We can check for clogs.
  • Unusual noises: Grinding or rattling suggests the impeller is damaged or there’s debris stuck inside. Disassembling the pump and cleaning out debris or replacing the impeller can solve this.
  • Water leaks: Leaks around the pump housing or fittings can point to worn-out seals or cracked pipes. Replacing the seals or repairing broken components will usually resolve the issue.

Does Pool Vacuuming Eliminate Algae?

Pool vacuuming is generally best for removing dirt, debris, and sediment that settles on the bottom of your pool. While it can help clear away visible algae particles, vacuuming alone isn’t enough to fully eliminate algae from the water. Algae tend to cling to surfaces and require more intensive treatment.

Chemical treatments like shock or algaecide are usually needed to handle algae effectively. In severe cases where algae have stained pool surfaces or deeply embedded themselves, an acid wash might be required to thoroughly clean and restore your pool’s walls and floor.

Does Pool Temperature Affect Chlorine Demand?

Warmer temperatures generally result in higher chlorine demand. Warmer water speeds up the breakdown of chlorine, meaning it dissipates faster and requires more frequent adjustments to maintain proper levels. Algae can also grow more easily in warm environments, further increasing required chlorine.

Since fluctuating temperatures can affect chlorine efficiency, regular testing is essential to ensure that your pool maintains proper sanitization. By understanding how temperature impacts chlorine demand, you can adjust your chemical treatments accordingly to keep the water balanced and safe for swimmers year-round.

Why Do You Need to Backwash Your Pool Filter?

Backwashing a pool filter involves reversing the flow of water through the filter to expel trapped debris and contaminants. This will help your filter retain or return to its original function, as it can become clogged with particles over time as water flows through it.

During backwashing, water is directed backward through the filter media and out through the waste port. We do this by adjusting the multiport valve on your filter system to the "backwash" setting. This process usually takes a few minutes, and it’s complete when the water in the waste line runs clear.

Your filter’s pressure gauge measures flow resistance as water passes through and tells you when you need backwashing. When it reaches 8 to 10 PSI, it indicates that the filter media is becoming clogged with debris.

Should You Ever Change Your Pool Water?

With proper maintenance and chemical adjustments, you can restore your pool water from a variety of common issues. Whether the water is green, cloudy, overchlorinated, or swampy, there are effective solutions to recover it without the need to drain the pool entirely.

However, if these efforts don't correct the problem, or if you're dealing with excessive buildup of dissolved solids, such as calcium or stabilizer, draining part or all of the water can be helpful. If you add too much cyanuric acid, for instance, you might have to drain about half the water.

There’s no reliable rule of thumb for when, if at all, you should change your pool water. You might, for example, only change it once in 10 years if your pool is well-maintained and the water chemistry is properly balanced, as long as there isn’t an excess of total dissolved solids (TDS).

How Often Should You Schedule Pool Cleaning?

How often you schedule service with pool cleaners depends on the amount of activity your pool sees, the surrounding environment (trees, shrubs, and nearby plantings), and your pool type. For most residential pools, a weekly cleaning schedule is ideal. If you use your pool less frequently, or it's in an environment with minimal debris (or has a pool cover), bi-weekly cleaning may do the trick.

Due to their higher usage and the need to comply with health and safety regulations, commercial pools typically require more frequent cleaning and maintenance than residential pools. Daily cleaning and maintenance tasks, including skimming the surface, checking and adjusting chemical levels, inspecting and cleaning skimmer and pump baskets, and checking water clarity and cleanliness, are all required to meet strict health and safety standards.

We work with you to create a commercial pool cleaning schedule that meets these requirements and is within your budget.

Why Is Weekly Pool Service Ideal for Most Pools?

Weekly pool service is ideal for the average pool and use cases. It ensures regular maintenance and cleaning, helping to keep water chemistry balanced and equipment running efficiently. Delaying tasks like removing debris and balancing chemicals can result in inconsistent or unsafe swimming conditions.

Here’s what a weekly service involves:

  • Chemical testing and balancing
  • Debris removal, including skimming and vacuuming
  • Filter cleaning
  • Water level checks
  • Equipment inspection
