Important Information
We often have to return to a pool several times after the initial recommission, depending on the condition of the pool when we remove the cover, as the pool may need dosing or vacuuming several times. As this is inconvenient and costly for all concerned we have listed below some suggestions then can be done prior to recommissioning to reduce the need for a return visit:
In addition to these suggestions, please remember that once the pool is up and running it is important to check the water chemistry regularly. Should you need the pool for a specific event, please remember to keep checking and dosing the pool accordingly for a couple of weeks prior to the date. It is also important to remember that if we need to heavily dose the pool you will be unable to swim in it for anything up to a week.
