Filter Service, Repair and Replacement

Is your pool starting to look green? Have you noticed some leaks around the filter? Is there debris returning into the pool? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you might need someone to look at your pool’s filter. The good thing about pool filters is they are fairly simple when you compare them to other pieces of pool equipment. Even though they are simple, pool filters are essential in keeping your pool’s water clean. Instead of trying to tackle your pool filter repair yourself, you should contact a professional who can take care of the hassle for you. Not only will Killer Pools clean your pool filter, we will inspect the filter’s grids/cartridges, and check all o-rings and manifolds. Even a small tear in one of your filters grids or cartridges can significantly reduce the ability to filter the water properly. If you are planning on replacing your pool filter, there are different manufacturers, sizes and types from which to choose. We can assist you in properly sizing the pool filter based on the water capacity of your pool, and the existing pool equipment.

Swimming Pool Inspections

If you’re looking at buying or selling a home with a swimming pool, you may want to consider hiring us for our swimming pool inspection service. Our certified technicians are well trained at uncovering any issues with an existing swimming pool. Our completed inspection report will tell you exactly what you need to know about the condition of your swimming pool in a hurry.

Acid Washes

If you have stubborn stains on your plaster, then a full drain and acid wash of pool may be required to remove them. But we will first investigate your stains, to see if they can be treated without requiring a full drain. Note – if a complete pool drain is required for other reasons, such as major equipment installation or vessel repair, you may want to have us perform an acid wash at that time.

Pool Repairs

If any part of your swimming pool isn’t running right, we can fix it. We can offer estimates for most minor repairs over the phone at no charge. More extensive repairs will require a skilled technician to visit your pool site to evaluate the situation. In some cases, charges may apply, but that will be discussed with you prior to an appointment being set. In most cases, the initial evaluation charge is waived when you have us do the repair.

Pool Cleaners Installation, Repair or Replacement

Our professional staff is standing by to help you choose the best cleaner for your pool. Here are the 3 most popular types of cleaners:

• Suction-Side Cleaners: The Pool Cleaner hose attaches to skimmer; suction is generated from your pool pump. These Cleaners move around the pool in a random pattern, depositing debris into your pool’s filter system. Simple to install and operate, low cost and comes with a proven track record.
• Pressure-Side Cleaners: The Pool Cleaner hose attaches to pool return (where water flows back into pool from the filter). The force of water moves the Cleaner and creates a vacuum, depositing dirt and debris into a bag or your pool’s internal filter. Distributes filtered water throughout the pool; will not clog filter with debris.
• Robotic Cleaners: The Robotic Cleaners have their own filtration system they do not attach to your pool’s pump or filter system. Most units are programmable and many can be operated by remote control. Self-contained filtration eases wear on your pump and filter. This is the fastest method of cleaning.

Pump Service, Repair or Replacement

A properly working pool pump will keep your pool’s water circulating properly. This will prevent algae from growing as well as keep your pool’s water looking crystal clear. A pool pump that is working correctly should be quiet, dry, and should not have any air bubbles inside of it. If you are noticing air bubbles coming through the return fittings in the pool, more than likely a there is a suction leak between the skimmer and pool pump. If your pump is leaking water it could be that the mechanical seal, or seal plate gasket has failed. In some situations, replacing your pool pump could be the best solution. By the way – we often discover pools with ridiculously-oversized “energy-hogging” pumps, such as a 2 horsepower pump when an energy-efficient 3/4 horsepower pump would be more than adequate. Switching to a more energy-efficient pump will save you hundreds of dollars every year.
