EMERGENCY CLEANING SERVICE Under normal conditions, a well-cared-for swimming pool should never need emergency cleaning services. However, if you have chemical imbalances or faulty equipment, any pool can “go green” in a hurry, especially in a hot summer. When that happens, you’ll need an expert to respond quickly. We have extensive experience restoring pools anywhere from “slight cloudiness” to a full-blown swamp. It may only take a calculated chemical treatment and a filter cleaning & inspection for us to get your water clear again. In extreme cases, it may be necessary for our technicians to drain the pool, remove leftover debris and algae, and then pressure wash the entire pool as needed. Once the pool has been refilled, we will replenish the chemicals and restore the filters to proper operating conditions. Call us or submit a request for a quote for any emergency pool cleaning services. Chemicals-Only Service Some of our customers prefer to handle the pool cleaning themselves. For these people, we offer our Chemicals-Only service. In this case, we will visit your pool or spa on a predetermined day once a week to test and adjust the chemicals for sanitization, pH, and alkalinity control. Our technicians will bring the chemicals with them; you won’t have to store any chemicals at your home. Tile Cleaning Waterline tile begins to collect two types of deposits: 1) suntan lotion and body oils show as grey discoloration 2) mineral deposits show as the white buildup. We will provide you an evaluation and estimate upon request. Stain Treatment As a Jack’s Magic Certified Stain Specialist, we can help you identify stains in your pool and determine if and how stains can be removed. We will also provide you a program to prevent stains from reoccurring. Drain down/refill: Many homeowners don’t realize that the water in their swimming pool should be drained and refilled when the build-up of certain chemicals (typically calcium and cyanuric acid) reach certain levels. These chemicals can only be removed through dilution or complete water replacement. You can call us or submit a request for a quote to find out whether your pool might be ready for our “drain down” service. THE PROBLEM: Cyanuric acid is a “stabilizer” that enables the chlorine to stay in your pool longer, and to do a better job of sanitizing your pool. It’s one of the chemicals we measure on a regular basis to make sure your pool stays crystal-clear. However, after a few years, the cyanuric acid will climb above the acceptable range, (typically over 100PPM), and no longer provide a stabilizing effect on your chlorine. If not corrected, your pool will require increasing amounts of chlorine to stay clean. (Ironically, most chlorine contains a small amount of cyanuric acid, which means the more chlorine you add, the worse your problem is going to get.) High cyanuric acid levels can also lead to plaster discoloration, which may require an acid wash or a complete re-plastering of your pool. We tend to have a problem with water hardness also. As water evaporates from your pool, the calcium is left behind. Every time new water is added, you are adding more calcium to your swimming pool. Eventually, the excess calcium will begin to show up as calcium deposits throughout your pool, visibly on your tile, and completely hidden inside your pool equipment. If left unchecked, these deposits can destroy your pump, filter, heater, and other equipment. THE SOLUTION: Fortunately, this problem is easy to correct. We can conduct a drain down of your pool to get your chemicals back in balance where they’re supposed to be. Our technicians will determine whether a partial or complete drain down is recommended.
