Value Of Professional Pool Maintenance Letter Written By Customer: “Don’t Let This Happen To You!”
The arrangement I have with my professional pool maintenance company is they do the chemicals and I do the pool cleaning. I do this to save $40.00 a month.
After vacuuming as well as I could, I was putting the vacuum equipment away and thought I would check the pool equipment and empty the basket that collected leaves next to the pump and run the heater. Neither had been done in a long time. I emptied the basket and got the lid back on, but now the water was not filling it up like before. Instead, the water was violent with bubbles and the pressure was so intense that I was a little afraid it might explode and I was afraid to get near it! I found out later that the pool pump was not prime, because the lid was not sealed tight enough. I also found out that this could have led to expensive repairs had I let it run and heat up.
In the meantime, I noticed that the heater seemed to be working, but there was a yellow light on that said ‘stand by’ that I had never seen before. Ugggg! Two more new problems. I let everything run to see if the equipment just needed to cycle through. When I went out to the pool there were bubbles coming out of four jets. Two in the pool and two in the spa. After a few minutes, it did not get better and perhaps was worse.Pool Maintenance Can Be Complex, Challenging, And Problematic
