In South Florida’s tropical climate, we recommend weekly testing and balancing. High heat, heavy rain, and UV exposure in places like Miami and Homestead can quickly cause chlorine loss, pH drift, and algae outbreaks.
While test strips can give a quick reading, they often lack accuracy. We use professional-grade water testing kits and digital equipment to ensure your chlorine, pH, and other chemical levels are within safe and effective ranges — especially important in high-use or saltwater pools.
Yes! Saltwater pools in areas like Coral Gables or Key Largo still require balancing of pH, alkalinity, stabilizer, and calcium hardness. Salt systems generate chlorine, but they don’t balance the water automatically.
Heavy rains (especially during South Florida’s wet season) dilute chlorine and throw off pH and alkalinity. This is common in outdoor pools in Kendall, Cutler Bay, and South Miami where rainwater and debris accumulate quickly.
Unbalanced water can lead to algae blooms, equipment corrosion, cloudy water, scaling, and skin irritation. In the long run, it can cause damage to your pool surface, plumbing, and filtration system.
Yes! All chemicals and testing are included in our weekly maintenance plans. We adjust your chlorine, pH, and other levels during every visit, and we include service reports through our client portal with before/after water readings.
