Spring - Prior to opening, we offer our customers with mesh covers an affordable service where we will come out and add appropriate chlorine to the pool.  This will help eliminate a green pool at opening.  Call early to schedule your pool opening!

Summer - Check your chemical readings often.  On hot days a pool with little or no chlorine can quickly cause algae.  We offer regular weekly pool maintenance at affordable prices.

Included in our weekly stops:

  • Net out debris & leaves
  • Vacuum pool
  • Backwash filter
  • Brush tile on walls, if needed
  • Balance water and add necessary chemicals

Fall - Call early to schedule your pool closing.

Winter - Pump water off an automatic pool cover, as needed.

Schedule a "tune up" for your spa.  We offer winter maintenance for spas only!

After your pool is up and running for the summer you should do the following: Everyday - Run the pump and filter system at least 6 hours daily.

Once a week - Balance the PH and total alkalinity

Twice a week - Check the free chlorine residual, add chlorine to maintain a 1.0 PPM.

As needed - If the water starts to look hazy, shock the pool using 1 lb of chlorine granular or 1 gallon liquid chlorine per 10,000 gallons of water.

Backwash pool as needed.  Empty baskets of debris.
