Unlock the Best Swim Season: Pool Prep for Ormond Beach and Beyond

Summer is just around the corner! As the temperatures rise, you'll want your pool ready for that first cannonball. Here is our checklist for getting your pool swim-ready in Ormond Beach.

Check Your Safety Features

Safety first. Inspect your pool fence, gates, and latches to ensure they are secure. Check that your main drain covers are compliant with the VGB Act to prevent entrapment. If you have a safety cover, inspect it for tears or wear.

Deep Clean the Filter

Your filter has been working hard all winter. Start the season fresh with a thorough cleaning. For cartridge filters, soak the elements in a cleaning solution to remove oils and minerals. For DE or sand filters, perform a backwash and recharge.

Shock and Balance

Give the water a boost with a chlorine shock to oxidize any organic contaminants. Then, bring all chemical levels (pH, alkalinity, calcium, stabilizer) into the ideal range. This creates a comfortable and safe swimming environment.
