Weekly Pool Service

---

When it comes to local weekly pool service, we highly recommend hiring a professional pool service, like Prismatic Pools. Here are the top reasons that our customers choose to hire a professional pool service, instead of managing it themselves.

While hiring a professional pool service will certainly save you time (possibly 1-2 hours every week), it might not seem intuitive that hiring a professional service can actually save you money. It may not save you money right away, but in our experience, it will save you thousands over the long run.

• Proper water chemical balance extends the life of your pool: Maintaining the proper chemical balance in your pool is crucial to extending the life of your pool equipment, your plaster, and your tile. Did you know that it can cost approximately $15,000 to $20,000 to refinish your pool's plaster? Standard plaster may have a lifespan of 8 to 10 years if cared for properly. However, if the chemistry of the water is not well-maintained, the lifespan of your plaster can be as little as 5 years. Conversely, consistently maintaining proper water chemistry can extend the life of your pool's plaster to 15 years, or more! This is just the plaster. Poor water chemistry also causes shorter lifespans of your pump, filter, heater, and just about every piece of pool equipment on your equipment pad.

• Save on your energy bills: Professional pool service companies will not only have a deep knowledge of your pool equipment, but they will know how to program your equipment to run at maximum efficiency. They will know how many gallons of water need to be recycled each day, and they will know that might vary between the summer and winter months. For example, you might be able to get by with running your pump for 5-6 hours during the winter whereas the summer may require 9-10 hours of circulation. Additionally, they will be able to recommend strategies on how to save money by upgrading to more energy-efficient equipment, such as switching from a single-speed pump to a variable-speed pump. Did you know that for most homes with a pool, the pool pump is the second highest user of electricity, right behind the air conditioning unit, so we are not talking about immaterial savings.

• Preventative maintenance to avoid costly repairs: Professional pool service companies will typically perform, minimally, a visual inspection of the pool equipment each week. They should be able to identify leaks or listen for any unusual noises in your system. Catching potential problems before they become much larger issues causing thousands in damage. For instance, a professional pool service company would routinely check the quality of the o-ring on your pump. A bad o-ring costs only a few dollars to replace, but if it is not caught it can put significant stress on your pool pump, potentially causing an overload to the motor which would cost hundreds of dollars, if not thousands, to repair.

• Increase your property value: All else being equal, a home with a well-maintained pool will be more attractive to potential buyers. While you may not have thoughts of selling your home today, taking the appropriate steps to keep your pool in tip-top shape and prevent wear-and-tear will go a long way when it comes to preserving the money you invested into your pool when it comes time to sell your home. Separately from selling your home, don't you also like to walk out into your yard and see a pristine, sparkling pool?

Having peace of mind is important, especially in this day and age. Most people already have dozens of considerations and commitments every day, and pool care shouldn't be one of those. Hiring a top-rated, professional pool service will allow you to focus on the things in life that really matter, such as family, work, friends, and having fun. When it comes to peace of mind, here are the top reasons that our customers have hired a professional pool service company:

• Focus on enjoying your pool, not cleaning it: If you're like most people, you probably bought or installed your pool so that you could enjoy it, not stress about it. Of course, we know all good things in life require a little bit of work or maintenance, but this can easily be avoided by hiring a professional. We want you to focus on the things that matter most to you in life, and we want your pool to be something that brings your family and friends together, not something you need to take care of on a weekly basis.

• Avoid the harsh chemicals: Maintaining proper water chemistry is one thing, but purchasing, using, and storing harsh chemicals on your property is a completely different thing. The two most commonly used pool chemicals, chlorine and acid, aren't particularly dangerous when they have dissolved into your pool, but can be deadly if they are not stored securely on your property. The last thing we want is for any children or pets to be exposed to these harmful and toxic chemicals, which is why we recommend hiring a pool service company. They will store the chemicals in their secure warehouse, away from your property and those you care about.

• Don't stress while you are traveling: Good pool care requires weekly maintenance. This is especially true in Ormond Beach, where a pool can grow algae and turn green within a week. If you enjoy the occasional vacation, you'll want to be able to rely on a pool care professional to take care of business while you're gone. After all, the last thing we want is for you to be thinking about pool maintenance while you're on a beach halfway across the world.

As you can see, there are a dozen reasons to leave pool care to the professionals. From preventing costly repairs and extending the life of your pool equipment to giving you peace of mind to focus on what really matters in your life, hiring a professional company will be well worth the investment.
