Do not hire someone who rushes the vacuuming. Proper vacuuming takes 10 to 15 minutes per session. If they finish in 5 minutes, they are missing corners and step areas where dirt settles. Also, reject cleaners who do not check the pump seal. A small leak now becomes a $500 motor replacement soon.
Water levels drop due to evaporation and spillage. If the level falls below the skimmer opening, the pump loses prime. This causes dry running and potential damage. Ask how they manage this. They may top up with clean water or adjust the intake valve.
Many cleaners check underwater lights and return jets. Faulty transforme rs buzz, indicating a short circuit. Return jets should push water horizontally, not stir up settled silt. If jets are misaligned, they disturb the pool floor, causing clouds of dirt. Realignment takes 20 minutes and saves you from constant vacuuming.
Ask how often they backwash the filter. Doing it too frequently wastes clean water. Doing it too rarely clogs the sand or DE cartridges. Ensure they have a proper waste container or connection point to handle the dirty water safely during the backwash interval.
Inspect your sand, cartridge, or DE filter before hiring. Sand filters lose grit over time, requiring resin backwashing. Cartridge systems need a high-pressure rinse every 2 weeks. If your filter pressure gauge reads 8 psi above clean baseline, the media is clogged. Ask the pro if they change filter sand or just clean elements.
Prices vary based on pool size, surface type, and equipment complexity. A small above-ground pool costs less than a large concrete gunite pool. Added features like spas, covers, or high-tech automation increase the hourly rate. Ask for a detailed quote listing each task. Avoid flat rates that ignore your specific structural needs.
A clean equipment room protects your investment. Dust on the pump motor causes overheating. Ensure the pro wipes down surfaces and checks for loose electrical connections. Clutter around the filter and pump makes future repairs harder and can hide early signs of leaks.
In hot, humid areas, weekly service prevents green water. Colder regions often need cleaning only every 2 weeks or monthly. Dust, pollen, and tree debris load the system faster. If your pool is under oak or cedar trees, expect heavier leaf loading. Ask the pro to note your specific seasonal peaks for scheduling adjustments.
Inspect the tile line for white crusty deposits. This indicates high calcium hardness. Professionals use acidic treatments to dissolve these minerals. If ignored, the scale bonds permanently to the plaster. Removal becomes expensive and requires specialized tools to avoid damaging the pool surface.
Mistakes happen. Pumps get damaged or chemicals are mixed incorrectly. Verify the pro carries general liability insurance. This protects you from paying for accidental damage to your equipment. Ask for a certificate before the first visit. Do not skip this verification step.
