If you are thinking about hiring a pool service, it helps to know what you are paying for. A good weekly service is more than a quick skim. Here is what each visit should cover.
Cleaning the water and surfaces
Every visit should include skimming the surface, emptying the skimmer and pump baskets, brushing walls and steps, and vacuuming the floor when needed. Brushing is important because it keeps algae from getting a foothold in corners and on rough plaster.
Testing and balancing the chemistry
This is the part that keeps your water safe. Your technician should test chlorine and pH every visit and keep an eye on alkalinity, calcium and stabilizer. In the desert, chemistry can swing quickly, so weekly testing makes a real difference.
Checking the equipment
A quick look at the equipment pad can catch problems early. That means checking filter pressure, listening to the pump, looking for leaks and making sure the timer is set correctly for the season.
Communication
You should know when your pool was serviced and if anything needs attention. A short message after the visit is enough to keep you informed.
