Why Spring Pool Maintenance is Essential
Even if you covered your pool for winter, months of inactivity can cause issues you may not notice until it’s too late. Here are some common post-winter pool problems:
- 🦠 Algae & Bacteria Growth: Stagnant water can turn green or cloudy without proper care.
- 🏡 Debris Build-Up: Leaves, dirt, and pollen may have settled in your water or clogged your filters.
- 🐿️ Critters in Your Equipment: Rodents like squirrels often nest inside pool heaters and pumps, chewing wires and causing serious damage.
- 🧪 Unbalanced Water Chemistry: Freezing temps and months of inactivity can throw off your pool’s pH, alkalinity, and sanitizer levels.
- 💧 Leaks or Cracks: Cold weather can weaken surfaces and plumbing, leading to potential leaks.
Instead of spending hours diagnosing and fixing these problems yourself, let The Pool Guy take care of it!

While some pool owners prefer DIY maintenance, hiring a professional like The Pool Guy saves time and prevents costly mistakes.
DIY Pool Prep:
✅ Skimming leaves & debris

BUT… DIY pool care comes with risks!
❌ Incorrect chemical balancing can cause skin irritation or algae growth.
❌ Missed equipment issues may lead to expensive repairs later.
