Summer is over: now is the time to check your pool

As summer concludes, it is essential to inspect your swimming pool to avoid potential issues in the future. Pool specialists Deep6 Underwater Pool Repairs advise that now is the optimal time to identify problems before they escalate. July and August place significant stress on pools due to hot weather, full weekends, and frequent visitors.

With the crowds diminishing, pool owners and community pool users in the Alicante region have the ideal opportunity to assess their pool's condition and prevent small faults from becoming major ones.

One of the first areas to examine is the tiles. A few loose or missing tiles may not appear significant at first, but they can expand into a larger patch, allowing algae to grow underneath the surrounding tiles. Additionally, worn grout can lead to similar issues. To address these concerns, underwater re-grouting is often the best solution for steps and small areas.

Furthermore, do not overlook other less noticeable components of your pool. A damaged drain cover may allow debris into the system, and outdated halogen lights not only consume more energy but can also develop broken seals, permitting water ingress. Upgrading to LED lights is a more cost-effective option and enhances visibility during the longer evenings that follow the summer months.

Community pools have an advantage in this regard, as there is no need to drain the pool for repairs. Deep6 Underwater Pool Repairs carries out its work underwater, minimizing disruption to pool users by only requiring a 12-hour closure. Moreover, Deep6 guarantees their repairs using their proprietary underwater cement, ensuring seamless integration and a long-lasting resolution.
