What upkeep do gunite pools require?
We recommend weekly, seasonal, and long-term maintenance to keep your pool functioning properly. With maintenance, your pool can last for decades. • Weekly: Chemical maintenance, addition of water, cleaning out debris from baskets and pumps, scrubbing tile • Seasonally: Proper winterization for pool closing and opening, as well an occasional acid wash of entire plaster surface is required for heavy staining. • Long term maintenance: We recommend that re-tile, re-plaster, and re-set coping stones should be done every 15-20 years. Some tile needs to be redone more often in particularly harsh microenvironments.
