Make the most out of the swim season by calling Puddle for reliable and efficient Prosper pool cleaning services. 

Routine Pool Cleaning Programs: What to Expect From the Experts 

The key to effective pool care is consistency. It’s not enough to throw in a handful of chemicals every once in a while or just skim the surface of pool water to remove floating items. Keeping water systems running means catering to the surface areas of pools as well as the internal systems that keep water clean and flowing. Puddle creates customized cleaning programs designed to get the best results and meet the unique needs of every swim space. 

Water Care: Maintaining water chemistry in pool water is about more than measuring chlorine levels. Everything from high heat to heavy rains can cause water to become imbalanced. Puddle technicians test, measure and balance pH levels, sanitizers like chlorine and bromine, total alkalinity and calcium. 

Debris Removal: Robotic vacuums are great for getting rid of unwanted items in flat, open spaces but pool structures are more complicated than that. Navigating hard angles, tight spaces and complicated areas like stairs require a manual vacuum that can get into those spaces for a complete removal. Telescopic poles are used to scrub residue from water lines and skimmers scoop up unwanted items floating along water surfaces. 

Checking Filtration Systems: A clean pool filter is key to protecting internal water systems. If filters are full, it becomes harder for water to circulate through. This puts pressure on pool pumps and lines that will cause strain, damage and the need for premature repairs and replacements. 

Seasonal Pool Maintenance: Keep Water Systems in Great Shape All Year Long 

Texas has a reputation for high heat but this is only true for part of the year. When the mercury begins to drop you likely aren’t diving into your pool very often but swim spaces still need attention. Seasonal pool care doesn’t just leave pools looking better, it prolongs the lifespan of your equipment and components, as well as making sure that when spring comes around you can kickstart your summer with a pool party! 

Pool Closings

With average temperatures dipping down to freezing during the winter months, it is extremely important to prepare your pool for cold weather. All it takes is one cold snap to make plastic brittle or cause pipes to expand and maybe even burst. A proper pool closing applies a combination of specialty cleansers that prevent freezing and reduce the risk of algae growth. After that, water levels are dropped to a few inches below the skimmer line. Lines are flushed and drain plugs are sealed up to prevent water from getting in. 

Pool Openings

Without proper closings, opening swimming pools up for use in the summer can be a major undertaking. After months of disuse pools are likely green, full of algae and swampy. Stepping foot into contaminated water can quickly lead to serious health concerns. Restoring conditions after the off-season takes multiple rounds of chemical treatments over multiple days. Puddle technicians restore water levels, apply chemical treatments, heavily scrub sides, steps, flooring and walls, and use manual vacuums to get into those hard-to-reach areas, removing debris for a clean slate. 

The Puddle Guarantee: Expert Residential & Commercial Pool Services in Prosper 

Every swimming pool will operate differently. They might have the same parts and work in the same way but there are a range of factors that will impact the condition and needs of a swim space. There is a big difference in the needs of a residential backyard swimming pool and hotel pool care. Luckily, Puddle technicians provide both! 

Residential Pool Service

When managing a swimming pool at home it’s a good idea to invest in a weekly cleaning program during the spring/summer season and then opt for a bi-weekly program during the fall/winter. Based on standard use it’s a good rule of thumb to remove, clean and reinstall pool filters every 3-4 months and sand filters every 3-5 years. 

Commercial Pool Service 

The higher the rate of use, the more contaminants are being introduced to pool water. In a commercial space, a lot is riding on the health and safety of customers and guests which comes down to the swimming pool condition. Unlike a backyard pool that sees several swimmers over a week a fitness centre, spa, apartment pool or hotel swim space can see dozens of swimmers over an hour. To keep pools in great shape Puddle technicians offer flexible schedules ranging from once per week up to five times per week.
