Calgary Water Feature Maintenance 

Outdoor fountains are staples for landscaping projects across Calgary. Water fountains add personality and curb appeal to homes and commercial spaces, but if water is dirty, they’ll quickly turn into eyesores. Don’t learn to live with green, smelly water when you can call Puddle instead. Puddle technicians offer reliable and affordable Calgary water feature maintenance both indoors and outside. 

When you want to keep a fountain running smoothly, it takes more than a bit of skimming and the odd chemical treatment. The best way to clean and maintain water features is with a consistent care plan. If finding time to add another household chore to a busy schedule sounds overwhelming, don’t worry! Local Puddle crews offer options for routine cleaning programs as well as single-service deep cleans. 

Water Fountain Care: Customized Maintenance Plans That Work 

Outdoor water features are up against the elements and organic contaminants. Debris and cast-off from surrounding plant life can clog up filters, cause staining and leave fountains looking awful. Indoor fountains might not be clogged up with leaves, but they are still vulnerable to mineral deposits, degradation and damage. 

Moving water means that chemical treatments are being circulated throughout pool plumbing systems. If water is standing still, it’s prone to contamination, and that means algae, stains and health hazards. If fountain pumps start to break down, water won’t be able to flow. There are plenty of reasons that equipment might wear down, whether it’s age or just buildup. Puddle technicians can assess and clean the fountain pump in your feature to ensure that water stays flowing. 

The best way to maintain your outdoor fountain is with a routine cleaning program and multi-step deep cleans as necessary. When you want to keep your fountain cleaner, all it takes is one call to a local Puddle technician. 

Routine Cleanings: Puddle technicians offer flexible options for maintenance packages, but you can always count on excellent results and even better customer service. Puddle technicians test and balance water with specialty chemicals to prevent algae growth and keep water crystal clear and flowing. Regular visits also make it possible for technicians to monitor water levels and look for signs of leaks. 

Deep Cleans: Even with a regular cleaning program in place, it’s a good idea to include deep cleans in your maintenance plan. Debris and buildup collect inside lines and around equipment. Buildup reduces water flow, output, and energy efficiency. Technicians use a combination of chemicals designed to run through systems, loosening debris and pulling it out. 

Seasonal Care: In the same way that you’d close down a swimming pool before a cold snap, it’s a good idea to treat fountains before sub-zero temperatures set in. Ask a Puddle technician about winterizing your water features. Detachable components are removed to be dried and stored during the winter months. Technicians will flush lines and winterize plugs to ensure there is no water hiding out inside lines or around equipment where it might cause damage. 

Professional Water Fountain Cleaning: What to Expect From the Experts 

You might depend on water feature installers to secure placement and hook up plumbing systems, but once that fountain is running, their job is done. Puddle technicians, on the other hand, are available for routine cleanings and single-service deep cleans and seasonal maintenance. 

Each member of the Puddle team is local to Calgary and the surrounding area. This means we’ve seen and done it all, so you don’t have to! Puddle technicians have all of the right tools and techniques to ditch debris from hard-to-reach areas, remove algae stains, flush lines, clean filters and ensure fountains are running smoothly. 

It’s important to note that a koi pond or water feature with aquatic plants requires specialty care and maintenance. Pond cleaning and maintenance is not a service offered by Puddle Pool Services.
