Pools are incredibly versatile. While there can be a lot of elements and often many moving parts, when it comes right down to it pools are quite simple: They are simply vessels filled with water.
So unless something drastic happens such as an earthquake or explosion, there is nothing on your pool that can’t be fixed, replaced or improved. All of the mechanical elements of your pool can be repaired. And any problem that develops can be corrected. It’s really that simple.
Pools 101
At their most basic, pools are water contained inside a barrier, usually concrete, plastic, or a combination of both. The challenge comes with keeping that water clean, warm, safe, and — at night — illuminated. All of the other elements of your pool besides the water and its walls are related to this objective.
Pool water is exposed to the open air. As such, it is subject to breakdown from things like sunlight, temperature variation, and natural decay of its restorative chemicals. That’s why it’s necessary to regularly test, adjust, and balance the chemicals in your pool that helps it resist things like bacterial reproduction, algae bloom, and other unwanted developments that can affect the safety, color, and use of your pool.
The other area of concern is mechanical. Things like pool pumps, heaters, and lighting are all mechanical, which means they are prone to periodic breakdown. This typically is a result of age, accident, or overuse.
Pool Care, Repair, and Maintenance
Left on their own, pools will naturally fall prey to entropy. The water will get dirty, the equipment will breakdown and eventually fail, and the pool itself will be no longer safe for swimming.
That’s why pools require continual care and attention, like the kind you will receive from Tropics Pool and Spa. Our team of experienced, knowledgeable pool experts can clean, balance, maintain, and repair your pool so you never have to worry. All you and your family have to do is enjoy it.
