ACID/CHLORINE WASHES
Acid washing is a process that cleans calcium deposits, stains, algae and more. Over the lifetime of a pool's plaster, it is recommended that acid washing be done no more than 3 times. The reason being is that each time the acid mixture is applied, it reduces the plaster veneer's thickness. After three acid washes, the veneer becomes extremely thin. Most experts will recommend that you get an acid wash done when stains are highly noticeable, and your typical cleaner doesn’t do the job itself.
The cost of acid washing a pool is going to greatly vary on a few various factors such as the pool size and age, as well as other various factors.
Service includes:
An additional charge is required for pools with hard to clean calcium stains. These stains, (white line around the edge of the pool) occur from hard water. We may suggest a different course of action, such as glass bead blasting to remove these calcium stains.
CHLORINE WASH
The chlorine wash requires use of several gallons of liquid chlorine which is applied directly onto the pool surface. We scrub the entire pool with the chlorine which kills all contaminents and disinfects the pool. This is an effective treatment for algae removal. We use full strength chlorine for best results, not diluted. The chlorine wash cleans the surface of the pool very well, removing dirt and some stains. The wash is great for pools with any kind of algae problem and is highly recommended for all green pools.
