Pool Opening in Port Moody, BC
Port Moody is a growing community, with waterfront activities, breweries, great walking trails and a food scene that cannot be beat. The only thing that can make a day out in Port Moody even better, is access to a great swimming pool! As temperatures begin to rise and the community comes back to life, opening your pool should be at the top of your priority list. Firing up your water system for spring means adjusting equipment, cleaning water, changing filters and creating a safe environment for swimmers — and Puddle technicians can help!
Professional Port Moody pool opening services are able to set the stage for a successful swim season. If you have closed down your pool system for the cold season, there is a good chance that you will remove the cover and be met with algae growth, debris at the bottom of the pool, or even a struggling circulation system. In order to get the season started on the right foot, call a Puddle technician to inspect your pool, treat your water and keep things running smoothly.
Seasonal Pool Maintenance: What to Know About Opening Your Pool
Treating pool water can provide an instant visual boost for any pool space but this is not enough to recover your system after months of disuse. By breaking the pool opening process into multiple parts, Puddle technicians can get great results for both in-ground and above ground pool models.
Water Care: When managing a swimming pool, water should always be a primary focus. Pool water chemistry is an extremely important aspect of care and maintenance but when opening up, it is important to check the water level, inspect drain plugs and then work toward balancing your pool levels. Anyone can put a test kit to use but nothing compares to having water tested thoroughly by an expert.
Safety First: Any time there is water and electricity in close proximity, it is dangerous. Having an expert handle your pool opening removes the risk associated with making a wrong move. Failing to do something as simple as flipping a circuit breaker before beginning your clean can mean the difference between a great result and a nasty shock.
Debris Removal & Filtration Systems: Whether open or closed, pools are always accumulating debris. A strong wind can dislodge leaves, sticks, pinecones, seed pods and more from surrounding plants, leaving them to fall onto water surfaces. If this is the case, unwanted items will either clog up filters or sink to the bottom of your pool, resting on liners. If debris is allowed to sit, it can cause permanent staining to liners, leaving an ugly look behind. In addition to poor visuals, large blockages can damage your pump and filter.
Whether you use your pool for personal use, swimming lessons or as part of a business, a proper opening can help you make the most out of the spring/summer season. You might call a pool expert to vacuum the pool around your home or commercial property, but with a Puddle Pro, you get so much more than just that!
Puddle Pool Services: The Best Results For Your Pool Opening
The pool opening process is a combination of standard cleaning practices, combined with in-depth cleanings, balancing and inspections. Puddle technicians examine pressure gauges, determining whether the sand filter or filter cartridge needs to be changed. When you call a Puddle Pro, property owners can rest assured that visual inspections are being performed by experienced technicians and trained eyes.
Port Moody Pool Opening: Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the water look green or cloudy when the cover comes off?
Water that has sat under a cover all winter often has some algae and debris in it, even after a good closing. The opening shock and balancing start clearing it, and the filtration finishes the job over the following days.
Will I get a report after the opening?
Yes. You receive a digital report showing your equipment is running, with photos and the initial water readings.
When should a pool be opened for the season?
Earlier than most people expect. Once daytime temperatures rise consistently, algae starts growing under the cover whether the pool is open or not, and a pool opened after that has begun is more work to clear than one opened before. Opening before you intend to swim also leaves time to deal with anything the winter has damaged.
What happens during a pool opening?
The cover comes off and is cleaned and stored, winter plugs are removed and the equipment is reassembled and restarted. The water level is brought up and the system is run while the water is tested and balanced. Any damage found from the winter is reported at that point rather than discovered mid season.
Will the water be swimmable the same day?
Usually not immediately. Even a well closed pool needs the filtration running and the chemistry corrected before it is ready, and water that has sat all winter takes time to clear. Opening earlier in the season is what gives that process time to happen without cutting into swimming.
Kat and her team are the best, ive tried other companies and none come close to what they offer.
Been using Puddle Pools for over 2 years now. Great service. Always keep my hot tub super clean. Wouldn’t use anyone else!
I been using Puddle pools for cleaning my pool for a year now. It's been great experience. Highly recommend 👌
We have been using Puddle pool for 2 years now and it has been great. The service and communication is great. Luke does an amazing job of making sure the water in the pool is clean and safe to use. We love using our pool in the summer.
I was very happy with the service received from Kat at Puddle Pools. It was the first time I had used the company and it was peak-summer. Despite that, my call was replied to quickly and a visit to view the pool soon followed. The problem was discussed in order to isolate the issue and the remedy proposed, which has eliminated the issue.
We are newbies to owning a pool so needless to say it was pretty daunting to navigate through the maintenance. We feel very fortunate to have met Kat Lopez who not only helped explained the process, but walked us through it step by step. She is very patient and prompt in replying to queries. She would arrive on time when she said she would, efficient in using her time whenever she is onsite. She also provides a detailed report after every appointment so there was no second guessing on what was accomplished. Talk about professionalism at its best! The rates are reasonable. Our family is grateful we came across Puddle Pools! The rates are reasonable. We are happy to support a local business. We hope the owners know how fortunate they are to have Kat on their team! Thank you for all your help, Kat!
