How difficult is it to maintain a pool?
While technology hasn’t completely eliminated the need for pool maintenance, it has certainly made the task much easier. Automatic sanitizers add chlorine to your water and weekly testing is virtually effortless thanks to user friendly test kits that show when your pool needs chemical adjustments. Computerized systems efficiently control pumps by shutting them on/off on pre-programmed schedules. To forgo pool maintenance altogether, or if you plan to travel or own a vacation home, we offer weekly cleaning and maintenance programs where our specialists take care of everything! As always, when your new pool/spa is completed, our staff will demonstrate the proper way to clean, utilize, and program your pool equipment.
A. A fiberglass pool is the easiest to maintain allowing you to spend more time enjoying your pool. The gel coat finish is smooth, hard and non-porous making it resistant to algae. This feature reduces chemical usage and maintenance costs. Unlike other types of pools, there is never a need to drain a one-piece fiberglass pool. And remember, unlike other pool types fiberglass pools do not ever need to be drained for replastering/remarciting, acid washing, or vinyl liner . On average it takes about 1 hour per week for a fiberglass and vinyl liner pool and two to three a week to maintain your concrete pool.
