    Keeping your pool running smoothly takes a lot more than a skimming every now and then.

    Our services

    Pool Services North Scottsdale Residents Trust

    Commercial Pool Services

    Pools at HOAs, community centers, apartments and clubs see heavier use than a backyard pool, so service is built around more frequent testing and closer attention to the equipment.

    Hot Tub Maintenance

    Hot tubs hold a small volume of hot water and a concentrated bather load, so chemistry changes quickly. Service covers the water and the filters and checks the jets, pumps and heater, and the water needs draining and refilling from time to time.

    Leak Detection

    In a dry climate a pool loses a lot of water to evaporation, which can hide a leak. If the level keeps dropping faster than the weather explains or drops even with the pump off, leak detection uses pressure testing on the plumbing lines and dye testing at fittings, lights, skimmers and returns to find where water is escaping, without digging.

    Pool Cleaning

    Weekly service covers the water, the surfaces and the equipment in one visit: skimming, brushing the walls and steps, vacuuming the floor, emptying the skimmer and pump baskets, checking the filter and testing and balancing the water.

    Pool Inspections

    An inspection looks at the pool, its equipment, its water and its barrier before you buy a home or when you want to know where things stand.

    Pool Maintenance

    Desert pools run all year, so maintenance does too: regular checks of the pump, filter and heater, the water level topped up against evaporation and the chemistry adjusted as the season swings from mild winters to summer heat.

    Residential Pool Services

    Backyard pools get one local team for the whole year, from weekly cleaning to equipment checks.

    Water Feature Maintenance

    Fountains, waterfalls and other water features need the same attention to water quality and circulation as a pool, on a regular schedule so the water stays clear and the pumps keep running.

    Pool Care in North Scottsdale’s Climate

    Extreme summer heat

    NOAA’s 1991 to 2020 normals for Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, the nearest station with published normals, show a July average high of 106.5 F and low of 84.5 F, with 111 days a year at 100 F or more. Water that hot burns through sanitizer, so weekly testing and balancing keeps it ahead of algae.

    Evaporation that never stops

    The City of Scottsdale estimates a 400 square foot pool loses about 19,665 gallons a year to evaporation, about 2,586 gallons in July alone against 588 in December. Topping up and watching the level is part of every visit, and the city recommends a pool cover to cut the loss.

    Hard water

    Scottsdale Water’s 2025 Water Quality Report lists hardness of 13 to 17 grains per gallon north of Chaparral Road, among the hardest in its service area, and the city does not treat for hardness. As water evaporates the minerals stay behind, so calcium is tested on every visit to keep scale off the tile and equipment.

    Monsoon storms

    The National Weather Service puts monsoon season at June 15 to September 30, with dust storms and wind gusts of roughly 40 to 60 mph. After a storm the debris is cleared, baskets and filters are emptied and the water is rebalanced.

    North Scottsdale pool service questions

    Do North Scottsdale pools need to be closed for winter?

    No. NOAA’s normals for Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport put the January average low at 46.0 F and freezing temperatures are rare, so pools here stay open all year and need regular care in every season.

    Why does my pool lose so much water?

    Mostly evaporation. The City of Scottsdale estimates a 400 square foot pool loses about 19,665 gallons a year, about 2,586 gallons in July alone. If the level drops faster than that or keeps dropping with the pump off, leak detection can find where water is escaping.

    How does hard water affect my pool?

    Scottsdale Water lists hardness of 13 to 17 grains per gallon north of Chaparral Road. As pool water evaporates the calcium stays behind and can build up as scale on tile and equipment, so calcium is tested and balanced on every visit.

    Do you service Cave Creek, Carefree and Desert Ridge?

    Yes. Our North Scottsdale team serves North Scottsdale, Cave Creek, Carefree, Desert Ridge and Rio Verde, and you reach the same local team at 602-557-9098.

    What does Arizona require around a home pool?

    Arizona law (ARS 36-1681) requires a residential pool to be enclosed by a barrier at least 5 feet high, with gates that are self closing and self latching and open outward away from the pool. A pool inspection checks the barrier along with the pool, its equipment and its water.
