Nobody looks at a winter cover between closing day and the first thaw. It goes on in October, the pool stops being part of the property for a few months, and the next real inspection…

A homeowner gets eaten alive in their own backyard every evening in July, looks at the largest body of water on the property, and reaches an obvious conclusion. Then a mosquito control tech walks the…

The first time someone tells you that you can swap a pool light with the water still in the pool, it sounds like a trick. It isn’t. It’s just a design decision that’s been standard…

Pools lose water to evaporation constantly. A hot, dry, breezy week in an uncovered pool can pull down a quarter inch a day without anything being wrong at all. Add a few pool parties and…

By the time most people call about this, the skimmer basket already tells the story. A wet gray mat of drowned bees pressed against the mesh, three inches deep, and someone standing there asking why…

Pool depth is measured vertically from the surface of the water straight down to the pool floor at that point — not from the top of the coping or deck, and not the wall height…

Pool water that’s green but stays clear rather than cloudy, and that gets visibly darker right after a shock treatment instead of clearing, points to dissolved metal — usually iron or copper — oxidizing, not…

Heavier dirt responds to vacuuming to waste or a robotic cleaner with its own onboard filtration, but very fine silt or dust is often too small for a standard sand filter to catch and needs…

Standard silica sand filter media needs replacing roughly every 3 to 5 years, sooner if you notice cloudy water despite balanced chemistry, backwash cycles needed more often than before, or pressure that climbs faster than…

Low-to-medium speed, run for a longer daily cycle, is the efficient standard for routine pool filtration — pump energy use scales roughly with the cube of speed, so cutting speed in half can cut power…

Pool-specific filter sand, commonly labeled #20 silica sand at a 0.45 to 0.55mm effective size, is the correct media for a sand filter — generic play sand or mason sand is the wrong grain size…
