How Pool Cleaning Works in Kitchener
The condition of your swimming pool can make or break the summer season. If a pool is green or has noticeable algae growth it is not only visually unappealing, it is a serious health and safety risk. For pool owners, cleaning and caring for a swim space can quickly eat up your leisure time. When you want to make the most out of the swim season and keep your water flowing smoothy, call Puddle for your Kitchener pool cleaning services.
Professional pool services improve curb appeal but they also create sanitary swim spaces for everyone that steps into your pool water. Proper pool care does not only revolve around chemical balance and treatments, it involves removing debris from basins and skimmer baskets, as well as monitoring the internal systems that keep water running. Any testing kit can give you a reading on sanitizer levels but when you want the best results for your pool, trust a local expert. Don’t rely on a pool vacuum to get rid of debris or stop your summer fun to skim the surface of your pool when you can call a local Puddle Pro instead!
Pool Maintenance: What to Do & When
Even with experience, it can take months (or even years) of trial and error to figure out exactly what makes your swimming pool tick. Even with a bit of experience under your belt, every swimming pool is different and has different needs. Throughout the course of the year the needs of a swim space change and with that, so should your cleaning procedures. A treatment plan that works in spring won’t work at the height of summer or in fall. The higher that temperatures are, the faster chemicals burn off leaving water at risk of contamination.
During the summer months pool cleanings should be done on a weekly basis, while cooler weather over fall and winter only needs bi-weekly treatments.
Water Chemistry: Water testing should be done on a weekly basis during spring and summer. Keeping water crystal clear involves balancing chlorine levels, pH levels, alkalinity and calcium. Without balance, pool water will go cloudy or discoloured. Shocking the pool water might help to clear away a bit of cloudiness but only proper balancing prevents algae growth and maintains a sanitary swim space.
Debris Removal: If organic debris is left to sit, it will break apart and become even more difficult to remove. Rotting organics have a negative impact on water balance as well as algae growth. It is simple enough to skim unwanted items off of water surfaces but getting rid of sunken items is complicated. If there are unwanted items sitting at the bottom of the pool, it looks awful and can leave permanent staining on liners. Specialized vacuums are designed to reach into hard angles and navigate complicated items like stairs. An expert can remove all items from pool basins, as well as skimmer baskets and checking pool filters.
Internal Systems: Water chemistry is incredibly important to pool care and maintenance but so are the water systems hard at work behind the scenes. If a pool pump begins to fail, water is not circulating properly. This means chemical treatments are not being dispersed properly and contamination isn’t far off. Setting a timer to run the pump in sunshine and on cloudy days, combined with proper chemical treatments can help to maintain a clean swimming pool throughout the year. There are plenty of types pool filter on the market but at the end of the day they all have the same goal: to get rid of unwanted items. A cartridge filter should be removed, cleaned and replaced every 3-5 months while a sand filter should be emptied and refilled with new sand every 3-5 years.

Kitchener Pool Cleaning: Frequently Asked Questions
How hard is Kitchener tap water for a pool?
Kitchener's water comes from the Region of Waterloo, which relies on groundwater and the Grand River and says most municipal water comes from hard groundwater. The Water Softener Facts site linked by the Region maps Kitchener at 17 to 36 grains per gallon depending on the area. Test your own fill water before balancing calcium hardness in a pool or hot tub.
How should I drain my pool in Kitchener?
The City of Kitchener says not to drain into stormwater drains or parks and to dechlorinate first, with chlorine and bromine at 0.1 mg/L or lower. Let the water sit one or two weeks without chemicals or use dechlorination tablets, then drain slowly on your own property. Check with the City before draining.
When should I open and close my pool in Kitchener?
Environment and Climate Change Canada normals for Kitchener put the average last spring frost on April 30 and the average first fall frost on October 15. Ontario pool guidance points to opening between late April and mid May and closing between mid September and mid October once water stays below about 15 C. Kitchener's lakeshore summers are mild, with only about 4.2 days a year above 30 C.
Will I know what was done at each cleaning?
Yes. Every visit ends with a real time E-Report showing what was done, the chemical readings and before and after photos, so you can see the result without being there.
Why is my pool still cloudy right after a cleaning?
Cleaning removes debris and corrects the chemistry, but the filter still needs time to clear fine particles from the water. Slight cloudiness usually settles as the pump runs. If it does not clear, or it gets worse, let your technician know so the filter and chemistry can be checked.
