Maintaining your pool is important as we all know, but for other reasons it will eventually turn green and slimy. If you don’t maintain your pool properly, filters can break, liners can crack or become ruined, and you could have a much more expensive project than you originally thought you would. There are pool maintenance programs that allow you to prevent the inevitable.

First of all, you should start by knowing how important it is to maintain the correct chlorine level to ensure the best water for swimming without being harmful to people and without being so low that slime can grow.

A full maintenance team is available to hire who set up a schedule to come and maintain and clean your pool regularly so you don’t have to. They will have a customized system to keep your specific type of pool in the best possible condition.

They will start when they come to check or repair your pool by lubricating the backwash valve, the pump cover o-ring and the chlorinator o-ring. This will ensure that everything runs smoothly by preventing friction that can cause wear, cracks, and rust.

They will then check your heater if you have one. It is always nice to have a heated pool, so if you don’t have one and are interested in getting one, they will tell you the options you have to get one. If you have one, they’ll come and make sure it’s not clogged or burned out and that the wires and electricals are in order. It is also possible to start a fire which you definitely want to keep an eye out for. That’s why they remove accessible debris from the heater cabinet.

Then they’ll make adjustments to the cleaner based on what’s going on.

Of course, there are other things to consider, such as replacing the skimmer basket, pump basket for the main pump, and pool cleaner bag when they are broken or full. It is important to clean the filter annually.

There are many different types of groups, so the elements will be different from each type. Your particular pool equipment may not be accessible for some services due to equipment design or layout. If the heater doesn’t work, you can call and install the new parts.

If you’ve gotten a warranty on your pool or parts of your pool, then you’re safe from things like weather damage, accidents, and advance items. However, if you find parts of your pool that are broken due to neglect or abuse, the damage will not be covered most of the time. Things like improper application or chemical balance, heat from low water level, or physical abuse are just a few examples of things that will not be covered most of the time. Reasons like these should give the pool owner enough of an incentive to properly maintain their pool. Even then, everything must be in tip-top shape before calling in preventative maintenance packages so workers aren’t held accountable.
