HOW OFTEN SHOULD I ACID WASH MY POOL?

You should acid wash your plaster pool every 5 years. You should acid wash your Pebble Tec pool every 3-5 years. Acid washing should never be performed regularly on plaster pools as it can shorten the lifespan of your plaster by removing too many layers. This should only be done when your pool plaster or pool tile has really bad stains.

GLASS BEAD BLASTING

Glass beat blasting uses an ultra fine stream of perfect round beats of glass. These beads of glass are around the size of the tip of a needle. They can clean oil, grit and calcium off the tiles and grout of the tiles. This type of blasting is used mostly on Pebble Tec swimming pools. The glass beads can easily be cleaned up after the blasting is complete, both in the pool and on the deck. It also doesn’t affect the chemical balances in the water like muriatic acid does.

ACID WASHING PLASTER POOLS

Acid washing isn’t the best option for pool cleaning. Furthermore, you shouldn’t acid wash your plaster pool if the plaster is worn out, old, or thin. Acid washing on plaster pools should only be performed every 5 years when your pool plaster is in great shape or when the stains are only surface stains. If you have deep stain on your pool walls from rebar or other elements, acid washing them will not remove the stains. The stains on your pool walls could be layers deep, preventing them from being cleaned with acid. During your consultation, we will let you know if we think acid washing is the best recommendation for cleaning your pool stains or if other stain removal solutions are needed.

ACID WASHING PEBBLE-TEC POOLS

Pebble Tec pools should be acid washed every 3-5 years or as needed to remove dirty pool stains. Acid washing actually works the best on Pebble Tec pools because the surface is stronger than plaster and can be acid washed regularly. Although, if you are looking to remove the calcium water lines from your pool tile, acid washing won’t do that for you. You need salt blasting or glass bead blasting to get rid of calcium deposits.

OUR ACID WASHING PROCESS

  • Pool draining is needed to acid wash the pool properly. You can’t acid wash with water still in the pool.
  • Once the water is drained from the pool, we then apply the muriatic acid and water mix directly on the stained pool walls (section by section).
  • We let the acid/water mix soak for a specific amount of time and then scrub the walls to remove the stains and debris from each section.
  • After the stains have been removed, we then rinse the pool walls with water to remove the acid.
  • After rinsing, we continue to acid wash the remaining sections until your plaster or Pebble Tec is cleaned thoroughly.
  • We neutralize the remaining acid/water mix with soda ash and remove it from the pool with a pump.
  • The final step is rinsing thoroughly and re-filling the pool water.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

  • Never acid wash too much.
  • Hire a licensed pool company to do it for you.
  • Never leave the acid on your pool walls for too long.

DO-IT-YOURSELF ACID WASHING

Yes, you can acid wash your pool walls yourself! Although, every expert in the industry recommends that you have a licensed pool company perform the acid washing for you. Muriatic acid is very toxic and can be dangerous if handled improperly. Also, you risk damaging your pool plaster if your leave the acid on too long.

HAROLD H.

“I found this company over a year ago after becoming displeased with a service company I had used for over six years. Ken, Chad and the other team members are in my opinion “extraordinary” in handling their day to day business operation. As professional as it gets and my wife is so pleased now that she is not looking at the “scale” buildup around the perimeter of the pool! My pool “sparkles” now and we are so happy that we found this company!”

MIKE N.

“I have been using Above All Pool Care for 4 or 5 years now and love their work. In all that time I have never had a green pool, to me a sign of their professionalism. Besides my weekly cleanings they replace my 30 year old pool pump, and add a a hand rail so my elderly parents can get in and out safely. They are a quick to respond if you have concerns or just questions about your pool. I will be using Above All Pool Care as long as I have a pool.”

KIM H.

“Awesome service! I had a leak in one of my pool pipes and was in desperate need to get someone out to fix it as I was going out of town in a couple days. After calling several companies, I called Above All Pool Care and left a message. Ken called me back within 10 minutes and said he could send someone out the next day, Ken’s guys came out and fixed my issue within an hour. Thank you Ken and team for your prompt service and peace of mind!”

JOHN H.

“I spoke with Chad about my pool pump, thinking it was out of warranty. He was kind enough to point out to me that the model I have has a year longer warranty than the other models. He pointed me to the Hayward website and my pump is being replaced at no charge. Chad saved me a lot of money with no gain to himself. This kind of honesty is greatly appreciated. Thank you Chad!”

SHAY M.

“We have used Above All Pool Care for MANY years. They have always been prompt, polite and respectful. The owner, Ken has always been attentive and so helpful. There are so many choices in the competitive market, but you won’t go wrong choosing them. They never missed a service and we never had any complaints about their work. They are very trustworthy and reliable.”

HOMERO M.

“I highly recommend Above All Pool Care. I was in the process of moving and selling my home. I was not at the house for several months. Every time I communicated with Ken, he was prompt in his response and took care of the pool needs. They are professionals. This is not a knock but the service is a bit pricey, but worth every penny. Highly recommended!”

ANNALISA C.

“After being told our pool pump needed replacement, we contacted Ken to see what he could do to help us out. He took the time to troubleshoot our issue with my husband via text and we were able to get things going again. He was very helpful. We would definitely use him again if we need repairs.”

ERIKA L.

“After buying our first home, our new pool needed a lot of work. The guys at All Above Pool Care were quick to come access what needed to be done, and had services completed right away. Since then we have been using them for weekly pool maintenance and our pool always looks perfect!”
