Virginia Beach Pool Newsletter

Welcome to the second edition of the HCJ Pool Service eNewsletter! We are excited to provide you with updates, tips, and special offers to help you maintain a sparkling and enjoyable pool throughout the year. Dive into this edition and discover what's in store for you: Featured Pool Maintenance Tip: Daily Maintenance Vacuum the pool: Use a pool vacuum or an automatic pool cleaner to remove sediment, dirt, and debris from the bottom of the pool. This ensures a clean and hygienic swimming environment. There are many benefits to regularly vacuuming your pool. Regular vacuuming helps eliminate debris such as leaves, grass, and dirt, which not only make your pool less attractive, but can also create unpleasant odors. Removing debris is also important for your pool’s functionality, since debris can clog the pool’s filtration system and prevent chemicals from working at their best. Since debris is a food source for algae, it’s important to vacuum regularly to prevent algae blooms. If you have trouble maintaining a regular schedule, you can utilize an automatic system or reach out to reputable pool professionals such as HCJ Pools! Safety Tip: Use pool alarms: Install pool alarms that can alert you if someone enters the pool area or if there is unexpected water movement. These alarms provide an added layer of safety, particularly for households with young children. Pool alarms provide constant monitoring of the water surface and can help give you peace of mind when you have pets or children. The type of alert you receive from the alarm varies depending on what type of system you purchase, but all alarms allow you to take immediate action when a disturbance is detected in the water. There are many affordable options for pool alarms on the market, so it’s easy for pool owners to take this crucial pool safety step. To ensure that your alarm is reliable, it’s important to purchase one that is certified ASTM Standard F2208.
