The Power of Chlorine: Keeping Your Pool Crystal Clear

Chlorine is the unsung hero of every swimming pool. It’s not just about clear water, it’s about safe water. Here’s how chlorine works to keep your pool pristine: 1. Kills Harmful Bacteria: Chlorine effectively eliminates bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens, preventing illnesses and infections. 2. Destroys Organic Contaminants: Sweat, sunscreen, and body oils can cloud your pool water. Chlorine breaks down these contaminants, keeping your pool sparkling clean. 3. Prevents Algae Growth: Without proper chlorination, algae can quickly take over your pool. Chlorine inhibits algae formation, ensuring a safe, swimmable environment. For optimal results, we recommend regular testing and adjusting chlorine levels to keep your pool safe and inviting. At ACORB POOLS, we handle all aspects of pool maintenance, including chlorine balancing, to ensure your pool is always ready for a refreshing dip. Serving Katy, Sugar Land, and Fort Bend, we’re here to keep your pool in perfect condition. Text

Why It’s Crucial to Check Your Pool Equipment Weekly and Replace a Failing Pump Motor

Your pool might look clean on the surface, but what keeps it truly safe and functional is the equipment behind the scenes. At ACORB Pools, we emphasize the importance of weekly equipment checks for good reason. Your pump, filter, chlorinator, and other components all work together to maintain clean, healthy water. Here’s why it matters: * Prevents bigger problems: Small issues like leaks or clogs can turn into major repairs if not caught early. * Saves on energy and chemicals: A weak or failing motor reduces circulation, leading to poor chemical distribution and higher energy bills. * Protects your investment: Routine checks extend the life of your equipment and avoid costly emergencies. * Keeps your pool safe: Faulty equipment can cause algae, cloudy water, or even unsafe swimming conditions. In Houston’s heat, a failed motor means no proper circulation and when water stops moving, algae can take over quickly. It

Why Hiring a Professional Pool Company Matters More Than You Think

Your swimming pool is one of your home’s best features — a place for relaxation, fun, and memories. But keeping it clean and safe isn’t just about scooping out leaves. It requires expertise, precision, and consistent care. Here’s why having a professional pool company matters: Proper Water Balance: Maintaining the correct chemical levels is crucial for your health and the pool’s longevity. Too much chlorine can damage surfaces and irritate your skin; too little can invite algae and bacteria. Professionals monitor and adjust your pool’s chemistry at every visit. Early Detection of Problems: A trained technician can spot small issues — like leaks, equipment wear, or unusual water pressure — before they turn into expensive repairs. **Crystal Clear Water:** Professional cleaning ensures your water stays inviting and clear, not cloudy or green. From vacuuming to brushing walls and maintaining filters, every detail counts. Time and Stress Saved: Forget spending your
