What WE do at the time of the Pool Opening: Remove plugs & gizzmos, re-install return fittings, skimmer baskets and pump basket, install ladders & handrails, start filtration system and attempt to ignite the heater. Test water. Brush and/or vacuum for up to 1/2 hr. Add shock and algaecide.
Customers responsibility PRIOR to our arrival: Leave the gates unlocked, have power to the equipment, bring the water level up to the middle of the skimmer so we can complete the opening and start your pump and filter system, remove water, debris or leaves from top of pool cover ($75 per 1/2 hour will be applied if we have to do it), leave D.E. powder out if you have a D.E. filter so we can replenish the grids, have ladders, hand rails, return fittings, skimmer baskets and bag for cover by pool side. * If we have to return because the above referenced is NOT done a $100 return fee will be charged.
Vacuuming Service Expectations & Results When you open a swimming pool and can’t see the bottom, as the pool water begins to clear up, you may see small areas we missed with the vacuum and brushes. We do a great job working blindly, and the initial service keeps the filter from becoming overwhelmed, thus allowing the pool to clear. Also, suspended algae in the water will die and fall out, leaving piles of dead algae (looks like dust) on the pool bottom. We offer a follow-up vacuum and cleaning service for $75.00. This service is to come back and polish up the pool once you can see the pool floor deep end.
What’s Not Included In Pool Opening
After the winter, we expect a little water and some leaves on your cover, but we charge extra if we have to take twenty minutes to a half hour or more, to pump water off the cover, and pull the leaves off. Vacuuming the pool is not included in a standard opening service. Also, we do not install ladders for insurance reasons. Finally, it is expected that your pool filter was cleaned when the pool was closed for the season, as such we do not provide this service while opening the pool.
Surprise – Extra Fees to Avoid - Nobody likes surprises. If your pool needs additional work we charge $75.00 per half hour. Also, we have a half hour minimum. If we have to come back to vacuum the pool, we will charge a $75.00 service visit, and then $75.00 for the vacuum.
