Detailed Service Breakdown
Water Chemistry Management
Balanced water chemistry is crucial for swimmer comfort, equipment longevity, and sanitization. Our technicians perform precise testing and adjustments.
- pH testing: We maintain optimal pH levels (7.4-7.6) to prevent skin and eye irritation and ensure sanitizer efficiency.
- Alkalinity & Calcium Hardness: We monitor these levels to prevent "pH bounce" and protect your plaster and equipment from scaling or corrosion.
- Cyanuric Acid (CYA): This "sunscreen for chlorine" is measured and adjusted to prevent rapid chlorine dissipation, especially during Boise's sunny summers.
- Sanitizer Levels: We ensure proper chlorine or alternative sanitizer levels for effective disinfection.
- Total Dissolved Solids (TDS): Elevated TDS can make water dull; we monitor and advise on remediation when necessary.
Equipment Inspection & Care
Your pool's equipment is its heart. Our routine equipment checks prevent small issues from becoming major problems.
- Pump Inspection: We check your pool pump for proper operation, unusual noises, and potential leaks, ensuring efficient water circulation.
- Filter Cleaning: Regular filter cleaning (backwashing sand filters, rinsing cartridge filters, or disassembling D.E. filters) is vital for clear water and efficient filtration.
- Skimmer & Pump Baskets: We empty these regularly to prevent clogs and maintain optimal water flow.
- Heater & Automation Systems: Visual inspection to ensure all components are functioning correctly.
Debris Removal & Surface Cleaning
A clean pool surface is essential for aesthetics and water quality.
- Skimming: We remove leaves, bugs and other floating debris from the water surface.
- Vacuuming: Thorough vacuuming of the pool floor to remove settled dirt and debris.
- Brushing: We brush pool walls and steps to prevent algae growth and dislodge stubborn dirt.
