Pool Maintenance in
Jacksonville, FL
Go beyond basic cleaning with a comprehensive maintenance plan that covers water chemistry, filter care, equipment health, and preventive service. We keep every part of your pool system running at peak performance.
Water Chemistry Management
Balanced Water, Healthy Pool
Water chemistry is the foundation of pool health. Imbalanced water leads to algae, cloudy conditions, skin irritation, and equipment corrosion. Our technicians test and adjust your water at every visit to keep it in the ideal range.
pH Level (7.2 – 7.6)
Proper pH ensures sanitizer effectiveness and prevents eye and skin irritation. Jacksonville's rainfall can lower pH rapidly, requiring frequent adjustment.
Free Chlorine (1 – 4 ppm)
Chlorine is your pool's primary sanitizer. We maintain optimal levels to kill bacteria and algae without over-chlorinating, which can damage surfaces and irritate swimmers.
Total Alkalinity (80 – 120 ppm)
Alkalinity buffers pH swings. Proper alkalinity keeps pH stable between visits and protects your pool surface from etching or scaling.
Cyanuric Acid / CYA (30 – 50 ppm)
CYA shields chlorine from UV degradation. Jacksonville's intense sun can burn off unprotected chlorine in hours. We monitor and maintain CYA within the optimal range.

FAQ
Pool Maintenance Questions
Our full maintenance plans include weekly cleaning (skimming, brushing, vacuuming), complete water chemistry management (pH, chlorine, alkalinity, CYA, calcium hardness), filter cleaning on a regular schedule, equipment inspections, and preventive care. We also include all standard chemicals in our full-service plans.
In Jacksonville's hot, humid climate, we test water chemistry at every weekly visit. This includes pH, free chlorine, total alkalinity, and cyanuric acid levels. Monthly, we also test calcium hardness, total dissolved solids, and metals. Frequent testing is essential because Jacksonville's afternoon rain and high temperatures cause rapid chemical fluctuations.
Filter cleaning frequency depends on the filter type and pool usage. Cartridge filters typically need cleaning every 4 to 8 weeks. DE filters need backwashing every 4 to 6 weeks with a full teardown and clean twice a year. Sand filters need backwashing every 2 to 4 weeks. In Jacksonville, heavier pollen seasons and summer storms may require more frequent cleaning.
Pool cleaning focuses on removing visible debris through skimming, brushing, and vacuuming. Pool maintenance is a broader service that includes cleaning plus water chemistry management, filter care, equipment inspections, and preventive maintenance. Maintenance plans keep your entire pool system running efficiently, not just the water looking clean.
