For commercial pools at apartment complexes, motels, health clubs and other facilities, pool management can be a large expense. There are many considerations when maintaining a pool for public use, including meeting health and safety standards, equipment service, staffing and much more. If you own or manage a business with a pool, it may be in your best interest to hire a full service pool management company. Here are some benefits to outsourcing this portion of your business.

  • Expertise.  You can hire and train people to manage your pool area but having a pool management service that are experts on all pool regulations can reduce liability. Having hired experts to ensure your facilities pool is meeting all commercial standards can eliminate fines and legal issues.
  • Maintenance costs. It is not always cost effective to do maintenance for your own pool. Pool service companies can often clean and maintain your pool for an affordable fee. This saves you on wages, insurance and pool maintenance supplies.
  • Staffing coverage. Finding and training qualified lifeguards and pool staff is time consuming. Depending on your locality, there are certifications and other consideration when staffing your pool. A full service pool management service can provide full-time pool staffing or training for your company’s staff.
  • Equipment service. Just like any mechanical equipment, pool pumps and filtration systems need regular maintenance and service to work correctly. A full service pool management company can ensure your equipment is well maintained to save on repair and replacement costs.

Don’t let pool management become a stress on your business. Hire a professional full service pool management company to handle your pool maintenance.

Comments Off on Dangers of a Pool Leak

It is easy to notice a pool leak during the summer. You use your pool all the time and a drop in water level or wet areas around the pool are easy to spot during swimming season. Then, when the winter months roll around, in can be easy to miss these signs. However, a pool leak is even more dangerous if allowed to go undetected. Here are a few ways a pool leak can affect you and your home.

  • Water waste. A pool leak is a large waste of water. Not only is this a drain on natural resources and energy, it is a drain on your bank account.  You could be losing hundreds or even thousands of gallons of water each month through a pool leak.
  • Water damage. Leaking water can create havoc on your property, including damage to your home’s foundation. A large leak could even cause flooding in your basement and lead to interior water and mold damage. This is a very costly expense and made worse the longer it goes undetected.
  • Soil erosion. Underground leaks from your pool can cause major soil erosion, destroying expensive landscaping and causing sinkholes in your yard.

To avoid these hazardous pool leak problems, make sure you are inspecting your pool every week, even during the winter months. Check the water levels and look for wet spots around the pool. If you think you may have a leak, call your local pool experts. They can quickly examine your pool and detect any leaks. The quicker leaks are caught and repaired, the better chance you have to avoid expensive damage to your home and property.
