On our final visit we are stoked to see that the pool is now clear and looking mint. We carry out a final vacuum, and clean the water line. The water balance is tested and appropriate chemicals dosed.

We let the owners know that they can safely enjoy their pool again and what was a pond has become an awesome swimming pool with great outlook!

A big thanks to our client for letting us share the pics of the journey with you all :-) Call the team in our shop if you're interested in knowing more about our services 0800 20 40 44.

The water is really clearing up now by day ten. The pool looks only slightly cloudy and most of the remaining sediment has settled on the bottom, which can now been seen, as the water has cleared up.

The team vacuums to waste to remove final debris and test and treats the water, ensuring the correct pH and chlorine levels to continue the improvement process.

if you want to know more about the green to blue process and how it might work for your pool just get in touch with us on 0800 20 40 44 :-)

After five days things are improving and the algae in the pool has now disappeared. The water has changed from dark green to a cloudy blue/gray.

We test the water, dose it with chemicals appropriately to aid the sanitisation, and thoroughly clear any debris from the water. The frogs have moved elsewhere, with none to be seen or heard.

The next few blogs feature one our customers from east Auckland as we help them change their pool from a dark green mess to a sparkling blue.

On the first visit we assessed the pool and noticed that the pool has been turned off for quite some time. The pump is not working and a large family of frogs are making the pool their home. The water is a very dark green.

We work hard on the first visit and a new pump is installed and we carry out a media change for their filter. 

The team removed as much debris as possible at the bottom of the pool with scoop, brushed the sides and administered a first dose of chemicals. The filtration was left running 24 hours a day.

Sometimes we have our work cut out for us to turn a slimy green pool back to sparkling blue in time for party season. 

This pool in Westmere hadn't been used for a while and the owners commissioned us to get it ship shape for a Xmas pool party. 

We visited 5 times to complete the green to blue process, carry out water tests and clean and dose the pool with the chemicals it needed. The results sure make us want to go swimming! 

Our technicians also installed a new salt water chlorinator and carried out a media change of the glass in their filter while they were on site. This means our clients pool is in the best condition possible for family and friends to enjoy this silly season - and their chemical usage will decrease as well because of the salt chlorinator.

Our shop hours have changed for the summer season - you can come and see the team in Newmarket on Sundays, from this weekend for your chemicals, water tests and anything else you need! (19/11/2016). 

We'll be there from 10am-3pm on Saturdays and Sundays through the summer months, until around Easter. Our weekday hours are unchanged (9am - 5pm Monday - Friday).

In time for Christmas, we've restocked and updated our rad pool toy selection, so come by and check out the funky fire boat squirter,  batwing fighter and a LOL moo cow ride on - there's something to keep everyone entertained!

Now, to somehow sort out this rain soaked weather that Auckland has been having....

Daylight saving is just around the corner and that means we're about to go back to our summer servicing for our regular clients.

Outside of work it's a busy time of year - there are always plenty of jobs to do around the house and garden.

Here's our spring jobs list:

• Plant your veggie patch with lettuces, potatoes and tomatoes (give it a healthy top up of compost first)
  
•  Check the batteries in your smoke alarms
  
• A new season means time for new toothbrushes for the family
  
• Book any pets you might have in for their summer break at the kennels or cattery (Christmas and New Year bookings get snapped up so early!)
  
• Spring cleaning - whether it's your garage, an overflowing cupboard or the pool shed, getting on top of clutter is a great way to feel like you've achieved something worthwhile
  
• We've never managed this yet - but (apparently) super organised people actually do their Xmas shopping at this time of year. Good luck!
  

There’s nothing better than leaping headfirst into a warm pool on a cold winter’s day.
Even if your own pool is hibernating over winter, we advocate swimming all year around – its good to get the blood pumping and can help the kids burn off some energy. 
Kids cooped up inside with cabin fever have driven many parents up the wall – so here are our favourite spots for winter swims around Auckland, so if you haven’t tried out these places give them a go.
1.       Waiwera Thermal Resort – about a 40-minute drive north of Auckland, these cosy pools even show outdoor movies (including good classics for the family)
2.        Tepid baths in downtown Auckland
3.       Your local pool is worth checking out – we head to Glen Innes Pool and Leisure centre and it’s free entry for kids aged under 6
4.       Don’t have a spa either? There’s no time like winter to befriend your neighbours who have a warm spa humming away in their backyard. Time to do some kind hearted baking perhaps? 
Let us know your favourite winter swim spots on our facebook page.
