Pool Maintenance for Dundas Pool Owners
The start of summer might have you reaching for the garden hose in order to beat the heat but nothing beats diving into a crystal clear pool. Even if you are used to the basic maintenance for keeping your water feature in great shape, a pool opening or closing is a whole different animal. Instead of trying to keep up with the changing seasons, call an expert for your Dundas seasonal pool maintenance.
Maintaining a swimming pool is difficult enough throughout the year, but as temperatures begin to drop, it is time for the real heavy lifting. There is more to a pool closing than putting on a winter cover and hoping for the best. Caring for a water feature is a multi-step approach and it takes years to perfect - but our Puddle Pool technicians have it down to an art!
Seasonal Pool Care: What to Do and When
In the same way that you might weather-proof your home for a changing of the season, it is important to do this for your water features as well. Taking an amateur approach to seasonal pool care might create a superficial improvement but when you want real results, a multi-step approach is the way to go.
What to Do When Closing Down: It is hard to say goodbye to summer but waiting too long to close down your pool can lead to serious and expensive damage. Instead of waiting until the last moment, calling ahead can help to create a treatment schedule that works for your unique system. It is important to drop the water level in order to not have frozen pipes crack or become damaged when it contracts and expands. After drainage, any remaining water should be shocked to ensure algae does not take hold while it sits stagnant. Any pool equipment, such as skimmer baskets should be removed and cleaned.
Opening Up Your Pool: You might be keen to fill up your pool at the first sign of warmer weather, but there are steps to be taken before this takes place. The chances are, that after months of sitting idle, your pool might show some signs of stain and scale. While water levels are low, it is a great opportunity to check floors, stairs or a pool wall for any signs of growth or discolourations. Taking the time to blow out the lines around your pool can also help to dislodge any unseen debris that might have settled in over winter.
Before opening up or closing down, it is important to do a proper survey of your water feature and its inner mechanisms. Caring for the pump and filter is just as important as treating water and surfaces. There are certain things that you can expect from a cartridge filter and others that you can expect from a sand filter and knowing the difference is the key to success.
Choosing Puddle For Your Seasonal Pool Services
It takes years of trial and error to figure out how to keep a pool clean, but luckily, our Puddle Pool Pros have put the work in for you. Not only do our highly trained technicians understand the importance of having your system, water tested, but also know the ins and outs of care for pools and surrounding areas. Many pool owners don’t consider how the condition of diving boards can impact the overall condition of a pool, but it does! Instead of spending hours and hours learning about the mechanics of a pool, call in an expert for safe, reliable services.
The pool cleaning industry does not stop just because it isn’t swimming season and that is why our Puddle Pros are always on the go. From addressing return lines and safety covers to providing insight into the conditions and environmental impact of surroundings. The needs of your property can change in the blink of an eye, so don’t let 24 hours be the difference between a great pool and a massive headache.
Puddle services are available as a one-time call out, or as part of a pool routine. For high traffic areas, such as hotels or recreational swim centres, or single family homes, our expert technicians offer services on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly rate. Call today for a free quote.
Dundas Pool Maintenance: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know whether my equipment needs attention?
The signs are usually gradual: the pool takes longer to clear than it used to, the pump sounds different, pressure readings drift from their normal range or the water is harder to keep balanced. Any of those is worth mentioning, because equipment problems are cheaper to address early.
How long should the pump run each day?
Long enough to turn over the pool's full volume, which depends on the size of the pool and the capacity of the pump rather than on a single rule. Running it too little is the most common cause of water that will not stay clear, while running it longer than needed mainly costs electricity. Your technician can tell you what is right for your setup.
Is maintenance still needed if the pool is not being used?
Yes. Standing, untreated water is more work to recover than water that has been kept balanced, and equipment that sits idle without being run or properly shut down is where problems develop quietly. A pool that is out of use either needs maintaining or needs closing properly.
Can maintenance be scheduled around the season?
Yes, and most customers do. Service is usually heavier through the swimming season and lighter outside it, and some equipment work is better done when the pool is not in use. It is worth discussing the pattern rather than assuming one schedule fits the whole year.
Why does water chemistry matter for my equipment?
Unbalanced water does more than look bad. Water that drifts too low in alkalinity or pH becomes corrosive to metal parts, heaters and fittings, while water that runs high tends to leave scale. Keeping chemistry in range is one of the simplest ways to protect equipment.
Started using Puddle Pools last year and they are very professional, always on time and their team is great. Not just for opening or closing but also repairs. Highly recommend!
We recently hired Puddles Pool Services to complete a pool inspection for our buyers during a real estate transaction, and they were absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Despite a very tight timeline, TJ and Mark were able to accommodate our request and fit us into their schedule, which was greatly appreciated. They arrived on time, were professional and efficient, and conducted a thorough inspection of the pool and equipment. Their communication was excellent, and they provided the information we needed promptly, helping to keep the transaction moving smoothly. It's clear they take pride in their work and value their clients. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of a pool inspection and will definitely use their services again in the future. Thank you for the exceptional service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great pool company!!! Great drivers too! Thanks puddle pools!
Professionals from start to finish. I've used a few different pool services over the years and there is no comparison to TJ and his team. I had them perform a comprehensive leak detection and followed that up with a leak repair. Their expertise, top of the line equipment, and friendliness made the entire experience quick and easy. They keep you informed all the way through the process and in terms of value for dollar, they can't be beat. I wish I could give six stars!
TJ and his team go above and beyond opening and closing our pool. Exceptional service! We have had other pool companies in the past but nothing compares to Puddle Pools. I would definitely recommend them!!
Going through my first season with a pool has definitely felt a bit overwhelming at times. I was referred to Puddle Pools Services and the knowledge and professionalism from their team has been top notch. Really appreciate how quick they are when responding to all my questions. I've had the pleasure of working with their team on two occasions and have been more than satisfied each time!
