Top 5 Signs Your Pool Needs a Service

At Poole’s Pools, we believe your pool should be sparkling, safe, and hassle-free year-round. Whether you’re in the across Sydney, here are the top 5 signs your pool might be overdue for a service:

1. Cloudy or Green Water

If your pool water is anything but crystal clear, it’s time to act. Cloudy or green water usually means imbalanced chemicals, poor filtration, or algae – all of which require immediate attention to keep your pool healthy and swim-ready.

2. Strong Chlorine Smell

Think your pool smells “too clean”? A strong chemical odour can be a sign that the water is unbalanced. When chlorine binds with contaminants, it forms chloramines – the culprit behind that sharp smell and potential skin or eye irritation.

3. Algae or Discolouration on Surfaces

Black spots, green walls, or slimy steps? These are clear signs of algae growth or poor brushing and circulation. Algae can stain your pool and damage surfaces if left untreated.

4. Low Water Flow or Dirty Filters

Notice weak water flow or bubbles in your return jets? Your pump or filter may be clogged, damaged, or overdue for a clean. Poor circulation not only affects water quality but can also strain your pool equipment.

5. Unusual Equipment Noises or Leaks

Any buzzing, grinding, or hissing sounds coming from your pump or chlorinator? Or water pooling near equipment? These issues could mean faulty parts or leaks – and early repairs can prevent major replacements down the track.
