Poolside Checks For DIY

Carrying out your own regular pool maintenance routine is great for your pool’s short-term health and regulation, but there are some longer-term maintenance items that many DIY’ers get stuck on. Find out how to make sure you are correctly caring for your pool with our Poolwerx team.

Maintaining your pool with a regular DIY routine is a great way to keep it clean and healthy. Tasks such as checking water levels, skimming the surface, vacuuming the floor, and brushing down the walls all help improve water circulation and prevent algae growth. However, complementing your DIY efforts with professional poolside checks can ensure the long-term health of your pool and prevent costly issues down the line.

The Benefits of a Professional Pool Check

While a consistent cleaning routine is essential, an onsite pool check by a professional offers more comprehensive maintenance. A one-off pool service from Poolwerx includes not only cleaning and balancing your pool but also providing expert education and personalised care tips to enhance your DIY maintenance.

Keeping Your Pool Equipment in Top Shape

Proper pool care extends beyond water quality—your pool equipment also plays a crucial role in keeping your pool in top condition. Faulty or damaged equipment can lead to contaminants in the water, resulting in green or cloudy pool conditions. To avoid this, periodic professional checks can help ensure your pool equipment is functioning correctly, allowing you to maintain a safe and healthy swimming environment.

Preventing Costly Repairs

Your pool is a valuable asset, much like your car. Just as routine car servicing can identify small issues before they turn into costly repairs, regular professional pool services help detect minor problems with your equipment before they become major concerns. By investing in professional check-ups alongside your DIY care, you can extend the lifespan of your pool and avoid unexpected expenses.
