🧪 Crystal-clear water starts with balanced pool chemistry.​

Regular testing helps prevent algae, cloudy water, equipment damage, and swimmer discomfort.​

Key levels to monitor:​

✔️ pH: 7.2 – 7.6​
✔️ Chlorine: 1 – 3 ppm​
✔️ Total Alkalinity: 80 – 120 ppm​
✔️ Calcium Hardness: 200 – 400 ppm​

Quick Tip: Test your pool water at least once a week and after heavy rain or periods of high pool use.​

Not sure what the results mean? Bring a water sample into Allan's Pool Shop and we'll help you understand exactly what your pool needs with a FREE water test.​

💦 Your pool pump is the heart of your pool system. If it's not running properly, water circulation, filtration, and water quality can all suffer.​

Here are a few quick checks you can do:​

✅ Listen for unusual noises like grinding or rattling​
✅ Check for strong water flow from the return jets​
✅ Inspect the pump basket for debris buildup​
✅ Look for leaks around the pump and fittings​
✅ Ensure the pressure gauge is within the normal operating range​

A well-functioning pump helps keep your pool cleaner, healthier, and more energy-efficient.​

​If something doesn't seem right, it's best to have it checked before a minor issue becomes a costly repair.​

Still cleaning your pool the hard way? Let’s compare 👇

Manual Cleaner
Great if you enjoy hands-on pool care and want a budget option.
But… it takes time, effort, and your weekends.

Robotic Cleaner
Drop it in → press start → relax.
Robotic cleaners scrub, vacuum, and filter your pool while you do literally anything else.

Most customers who switch say the same thing:
👉 “Why didn’t I do this sooner?”
