It would seem that power outages, periods of extreme weather and increasingly frequent and horrific wild fire have become the norm for us here in California

Being a native Californian I have seen periods of extreme rain and snow storms and periods of extreme drought over the years but have never seen such drastic and frequent environment changes in such short periods of time.  Northern California has been our home for  many years and in spite of the challenges and changes that the shifts in the environment bring we still believe there is no other place we would want to call home, raise our children and serve our clients from the Bay Area, the Oakland Hills, Napa Valley to the Sierra Foothills.

Adapting to the disruption that these increasingly prevalent and frequent environmental changes is key.  Wild fire is one of those environment disruptors that seems to be here to stay and will wreak complete havoc on bodies of water including swimming pool and spa’s for hundreds of miles away. Ash, soot and debris from the inordinate amount of recent local and surrounding wild fires coupled with wind and storms negatively impacts your pool.

When wild fire season hits, we tell our clients that the first line of defense are filter cleanings and a lot of them! That coupled with daily brushing and netting of debris from the pool surface, extra chlorination, algaecide, clarifier, enzyme and phosphate removal treatments are also necessary and are not included in the cost of weekly pool service. This makes the stakes even higher and highlighting importance of diligence and team work when implementing strategies to navigate these challenges situations.
