SERVICES

General Pool & Spa Services

Weekly/Biweekly Service

Once a week or every other week, the service technicians will inspect the filter equipment for any potential issues or improper function. They will also backwash & rinse the filter if needed.

Then, they will test & adjust the water chemistry if necessary.

Finally, after the filter and chemistry have been addressed, they will skim the surface of the water as well as vacuum minimal debris on the floor.

Having our service professionals tend to your pools will help take some of the load off and give you more time to enjoy using it!

Pump & Filter Installs

When it comes to equipment, our service technicians are very experienced and knowledgeable. We install all kinds of filters and pumps, whether it be sand, DE, or even cartridge.

We work on larger systems for commercial accounts as well as the smaller systems that keep our residential clients swimming or soaking with peace of mind.

Additionally, if you have any issues with your equipment, feel free to bring it down to our shop and we can try to diagnose the issue!

Heat Pumps & Heaters

At ABC Pool & Spa we offer a line of pool heaters from a brand name Nirvana, manufactured in Canada. They come in different sizes, and can be installed for both above ground and inground systems. They run off electricity and are incredibly efficient.

Although heat pumps are an excellent choice to extend your swimming season and provide warmer temps, we also recommend a great alternative, solar blankets. They come in all shapes & sizes offering the ability to raise the pool temperature a fair amount without investing in a heating system.

Additionally we have a chemical solar product we highly recommend on the hotter days of the season called smart shield. It is an easy to use liquid chemical that creates a blanket across the water surface which aids in preventing evaporation thereby trapping heat.

If you have any questions about our heater options or other solar products, please give us a call!

Saline & Installation

Salt systems have been around for some time and we at ABC are huge advocates for their utility and effectiveness. Whether it be on an above ground or inground, pool or spa, salt offers a low maintenance solution to sanitizing your water.

This hardware that is plumbed into your filter system takes the salt, while using electrolysis, and  converts it into chlorine. That is the basic science behind it. There are also sensors in these units that detect the current level of sanitizer and will adjust as needed. Some systems these days are somewhat programmable as well.

If you are looking for an alternative to reduce your upkeep on chemistry then saline may be a chemical system worth exploring!

Leak Detection & Repair

When it comes to detecting and repairing leaks in a liner or filter system, our technicians are no strangers to that. If a liner can be repaired with a basic adhesive patch, that is no problem. However, due to serious damage or aging, some liners must be completely replaced as they are too brittle to be saved.

As far as filter systems go, plumbing can leak as well. If you notice that your water level is dropping to lower than normal levels, give us a call and we can schedule a leak detection or help you troubleshoot over the phone. If we discover a true leak then we can quote you the cost to have it fixed.

Furthermore, we have some private contractors that dive, whom we highly respect and recommend if we are unable to service your area.

Safety Cover Installation

After another memorable season of aquatic fun, most people must close there pool and choose to cover it. For those with inground or buried pools, a safety cover is the perfect option to truly protect and safeguard your precious investment throughout the harsh winter months.

These covers can be custom made, but even if you have a classic style pool, with the correct dimensions a cover can be made to order. They are the strongest cover you can get while also offering immense durability and a variety of colors.

For someone that is looking for a more affordable option, solid covers combined with water bags also do a wonderful job of protecting your pool while keeping unwanted debris from entering the water, making spring clean up more time consuming.

We also offer above ground covers as well as leaf nets that can help catch larger debris.
