Now that summer is in full effect, can you keep that pool water crystal clear? Let's talk about how to do just that. It might just be easier than you think!

Why is it so hard these days to find reliable drivers—or even people with valid licenses?

Let's talk about those upgrades you got years ago that are starting to break down and rust... all the rust, of course, will go into your pool and leave some terrible stains. We might have some solutions that could help remove some of them.

Let's talk about why your pool is cloudy and why running your pump for only 4 hours a day doesn't automatically fix your problem... It's summertime, and you need to be running your pool for at least 8 hours. If your pool's water can't be fully turned over in a day, you won't be saving any money when it turns green.

It may sound boring, but properly draining your pool is important. Same with your hottub, you need to maintain proper water treatment and that involves draining and filling your pool.

Let's face it—your single-speed motor running at full speed 8 hours a day isn't helping your pool. Imagine having the control to adjust your pump's speed throughout the day. You could have your circulation run longer, improving the cleanliness, and it's still saving you money because it's not running at 100% full power—cleaner pool, cheaper electric bill, and fully automatic.

What a time to own a pool! We have pools that automatically adjust valves, turn on heaters, and change the colors of lights to the music you're listening to! Alexa, put my pool into party mode!

In this episode, we're talking about heaters, and which one is good for your pool. Gas or Electric? Each has its benefits, but which one should you get?

Not all pool owners think of these things, so we're here! We're here to help you and your pool. I'm not sure if you have noticed, but we ended up splitting the podcast. We used to include the Pool point at the end of our normal episodes and then post them separately a couple of days later. We've decided to separate them and keep the Friday post schedule. So now one week you will get the normal OPP episode and then the following week you get Pool Point.

Want to know some interesting pool facts? Some may help your pool knowledge, but some are fun to learn. And in this Pool Point, we discuss why you NEED to change your pool filter!
