Pool Opening – 2nd- 3rd Visit:

To ensure your pool is swim-ready we highly recommend the 4 visit Opening Package. The extra visits allow your pool to receive a deep cleaning and chemically balance the water.  Our goal is to have your pool clean and swim ready after the final visit!  

  • Vacuuming – Removal of dead algae, dirt and debris
  • Filter Cleaning – Clear the captured material from the filter and pool system
  • Chemical Testing and Adjustment – Final testing and full chemical adjustment
  • Cleaning – Skim the surface, empty the baskets and brush any remaining areas.

Pool Opening after 4th Visit:

The majority of pools that were properly closed with a cover will be  ready to swim. Light to moderate cleaning may be required if the pool was very dirty/green at startup.

The entire opening process from completely green to ready-to-swim can take roughly 2 weeks. 

Plan on scheduling your pool opening about 2 weeks before you’d like to swim, should any required repairs be identified at startup.
