Service

Perma Pools offers a wide range of services to manage your inground swimming pool, from openings and closings to ongoing maintenance to equipment repair and replacement. 

Opening

Perma Pools offers a full-service opening to help prepare your pool for the season:

• We lightly pressure-wash your cover and concrete deck.
• We inspect your equipment and start the system, including the heater. We can leave the heater on at your desired temperature at your request.
• We lightly vacuum the pool.
• We clean the scum line and skimmer area, brush the walls and floor, and empty all baskets.
• If you have cartridge filters, we install these for you.
• We lubricate all O-rings.
• We assemble your automatic pool cleaner and install your handrail and ladder (where applicable).
• We add opening chemicals--shock, a stain & scale treatment, and algaecide--and add chlorine tablets to your feeder or install your FROG Pacs.
• We test your water for pH, alkalinity, chlorine, stabilizer, TDS, and phosphates.

Closing

Our full-service closing ensures a trouble-free winter so that your spring opening can go more smoothly:

• We lightly vacuum the pool. (Excessive debris should be removed prior to closing.)
• We add closing chemicals--shock, algaecide, and a stain & scale treatment--to the water.
• We rinse the cartridge filters (where applicable).
• We remove chlorine tablets from the chlorinator or your FROG Pacs from the FROG cycler.
• We empty and remove your baskets and return fittings. We will place pump plugs and pressure gauges in the pump basket for storage.
• We blow water from the lines, add antifreeze (4gal included), and plug the lines with winter plugs and gizmos/skimmer expanders to protect against freeze damage.
• We winterize all of your pool equipment to protect against freeze damage.
• We install your winter cover and water tubes or secure your automatic cover (where applicable).

Maintenance

Spend less time cleaning your pool and more time enjoying it with one of our maintenance programs. We offer maintenance services on a weekly, biweekly, and monthly basis, as well as vacation service that you can schedule in advance so you can come home to a pristine pool. We perform a number of services during a maintenance visit as needed:

• We vacuum your pool and skim the water.
• We brush the walls and floor and clean the scum line and skimmer.
• We clean out your pump and skimmer baskets.
• We fill the chlorinator or install a new FROG Pac.
• We inspect the filter pressure and backwash the filter or clean the cartridges.
• We add water to the pool if the level is low.
• We test your water, make note of its clarity, and add chemicals as needed.
