Instrumented water chemistry with actionable thresholds
We deploy calibrated digital probes and portable titration methods to capture accurate readings across multiple water chemistry axes. Rather than relying on single-parameter fixes, our reports view chemistry holistically: how pH influences sanitizer efficacy, how alkalinity buffers pH drift, and how stabiliser concentrations interact with required free chlorine levels. Each diagnostic includes recommended dosing amounts, scheduling windows that minimise swimmer exposure, and verification steps so clients can confirm successful remediation. For complex or recurring imbalances we provide a root-cause analysis—examining source water, evaporation concentration effects, and sanitiser pump calibration—to remove underlying drivers rather than only treating symptoms. This reduces overuse of chemicals, improves swimmer safety, and preserves pool finishes and equipment.
Filtration & hydraulic diagnostics for sustained clarity
Clear water depends on proper circulation and filtration. Our technicians map actual flow rates, measure head pressure across filters, and inspect piping for obstructions and air entrainment. We validate pump performance against manufacturer curves and document when backwashing frequency or media replacement will restore designed throughput. Where sand, cartridge or diatomaceous earth media show degradation we provide comparative replacement options with lifecycle cost estimates. We also inspect skimmer and main drain balance to ensure turnover targets are achievable without excessive energy use, and when appropriate we recommend variable-speed pump programming to balance clarity with operational economy.
Energy & equipment efficiency audits
Beyond chemistry, equipment choices drive ongoing cost. Our efficiency audits measure pump kW consumption, assess heater setpoint strategies, and evaluate the return on investment for heat-pump retrofits, variable-speed drives or solar pre-heating. We model annual energy use under current and proposed configurations to show payback timelines and lifecycle savings. These audits also highlight low-cost operational changes—adjusting runtime, optimizing filtration cycles or modifying setpoints—that produce immediate reductions in utility spend without sacrificing safety or comfort.
Preventive maintenance schedules tailored to use patterns
Different pools have different usage rhythms: a private pool with occasional guests has different needs than a community pool with daily classes. We design preventive schedules that match loading profiles—defining backwash intervals, filter inspections, compressor checklists and seasonal checks. These plans reduce unexpected shutdowns by prioritising small, scheduled interventions over emergency reactive work. Clear SOPs and checklists are provided so on-site staff can execute routine tasks consistently while our periodic validation visits confirm the overall program is effective.
Regulatory compliance & record-ready reporting
For commercial operators, maintaining regulatory records is essential. Our reports are formatted to include timestamped measurements, photographic evidence and corrective-action logs suitable for inspection reviews. When licencing demands daily logs or specific microbial thresholds, we set up monitoring cadence and reporting templates that keep operators audit-ready. This reduces fines, paperwork scramble and the reputational risk associated with non-compliance.
Integrated incident response and remediation support
When incidents occur—algal bloom, significant turbidity events, or chemical overdoses—rapid, decisive actions limit downtime and protect users. We maintain emergency protocols and supply kits for rapid application: shock dosing strategies, flocculation and filtration accelerants, and temporary circulation adjustments. Our team can mobilise guided remediation work or provide remote technical direction for team-led responses, ensuring interventions are safely executed and verified through subsequent testing to confirm recovery.
