Is your pool filter this gross?  Pool filters should be cleaned every 3 months.  When is the last time you had yours cleaned?

Call Blue Cactus Pool Service LLC at 623.889.1366 to schedule your filter clean. Swim season is almost here.  Get your pool ready now.

If you have been struggling to clear up your cloudy pool water, it may be your sand filter.  We have a customer who had cloudy pool water and we tried all kinds of different chemicals to clean it up, but we couldn't get it clear.  We finally convinced the owner of the pool to upgrade from their sand filter to a new cartridge pool filter.  These pictures tell the rest of the story.  The AFTER picture was taken 48 hours after installing the cartridge filter.  No more cloudy pool water.

If you have been struggling with cloudy pool water, call us today for an evaluation of what we can do to fix your cloudy swimming pool water.  If you have a sand filter, consider switching to a cartridge pool filter.

As the weather starts to heat up, if your pool has not been properly taken care of over the winter, you will soon start to see algae growing, which if left untreated can quickly turn your pool into a green pool.  Sometimes you can get away with not properly maintaining the pool chemistry over the winter because of the cooler temperatures.  But as soon as it gets warmer you will start having all kinds of problems with your pool.

Many pools also need to be treated for organic matter in the swimming pool water.  The pool chemicals you regularly use cannot get rid of organic matter.  Too much organic matter will cause you to struggle with algae in your pool EVEN if your pool chemistry is perfect.  The algae feeds off the organic matter, which is unaffected by your regular pool chemicals.  We have a special process we use to treat organic matter which involves quarterly treatments.  Please contact us if you are having problems even though you have been properly maintaining your pool chemistry.

You also will have problems if your total dissolved solids are too high.  Your pool needs to be drained about once every 5 years.  Over time the water simply gets saturated with dissolved matter and the chemicals will no longer be able to do their job.  If you haven't had your pool drained in the last 5 years, now is the time.  Plaster pools cannot be drained once it gets too hot, or you risk cracking the plaster walls.  So call us now to get a pool draining scheduled before it gets any hotter.

Lastly, let us remind you that your pool filters need to be cleaned on a quarterly basis.  Many homeowners forget to clean their filters over the winter because they are simply not using their pools.  Call us to schedule a pool filter cleaning and get it done now before it gets any hotter.
