Frequently Asked Questions
Pools can change quickly, especially in Florida. This FAQ covers some of the most common questions we hear about our services from homeowners about water clarity, chemistry, and routine maintenance. If you don’t see your question here or something doesn’t look right, just reach out — we’re always happy to help.
We just had family in town for the 4th of July. Now our pool look cloudy. Why?
Heavy pool use adds sunscreen, oils, and debris, which can quickly cause cloudiness. The next scheduled weekly pool cleaning will rebalance the water and clear it up.
Why does the pool sometimes look a little cloudy right after service?
Cloudiness can happen briefly after brushing or chemical adjustments and usually clears as the filter runs.
We used the pool a lot this weekend. Do I need to do anything?
Extra use is fine. The next visit will rebalance the water if needed.
Is it normal for the water level to drop?
Evaporation is normal, especially in South West Florida during the fall and winter months.
Should I add chemicals between visits?
It’s best to leave chemical adjustments to us.
Can rain mess up the pool?
Heavy rain will affect things like PH and chlorine levels but regular service keeps things under control.
What should I do if the water suddenly looks off?
If something looks unusual, let us know so we can address it at the next visit or sooner if needed.
What if my pool is already green?
Our green to clean service is designed specifically for that situation.
How often do you clean the filter?
Filters are cleaned once a month unless conditions require it sooner.
What is pH?
pH measures how acidic or basic your pool water is. Keeping pH balanced helps chlorine work properly and prevents irritation to skin, eyes, and pool surfaces.
What is cyanuric acid?
Cyanuric acid is a stabilizer that protects chlorine from being broken down by the sun. Without it, chlorine can disappear quickly in Florida heat.
What is chlorine?
Chlorine is what keeps pool water safe and clear by killing bacteria and preventing algae growth. It works best when the rest of the water chemistry is properly balanced.
Which areas do you serve?
We currently offer North Port pool service and Port Charlotte pool service in South West Florida.
