Question 1

What is included in your weekly pool service?

Accepted Answer

Our weekly service is comprehensive. It includes testing and balancing water chemistry (LSI based), skimming the surface, brushing walls and tiles, vacuuming as needed, emptying skimmer and pump baskets, and checking equipment for proper operation. We also provide a digital report after every visit.

Question 2

Do you service saltwater pools?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We are experts in maintaining saltwater pools. We monitor salt levels, inspect the salt cell for calcium buildup, and ensure the water chemistry is balanced to protect your equipment from corrosion.

Question 3

How do I know when you have serviced my pool?

Accepted Answer

Transparency is key. After every visit, you will receive an email with a photo of your clean pool, a checklist of tasks completed, and detailed chemical readings. You'll never have to guess if we showed up.

Question 4

My pool is green. Can you fix it?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We specialize in Green-to-Clean transformations. This process involves aggressive chemical treatment, multiple filter cleanings, and vacuuming to waste to remove algae and restore your pool to a sparkling blue condition.

Question 5

How long does it take to turn a green pool blue?

Accepted Answer

Most green pools can be cleared within 3-7 days with proper treatment. We use aggressive chemical dosing, multiple filter cleanings, and circulation to eliminate algae. Some severely neglected pools may take 1-2 weeks. We'll provide a timeline during your free inspection.

Question 6

Can you fix a pool with dead algae on the bottom?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We vacuum the dead algae to waste (bypassing the filter), treat with clarifier, and run the filter until the water is crystal clear. This prevents the algae from re-blooming and ensures your pool is safe to swim in.

Question 7

How often should my pool filter be cleaned?

Accepted Answer

We recommend cleaning cartridge filters every 4-6 weeks, depending on the bather load and debris. DE and sand filters typically need backwashing monthly and a full breakdown cleaning at least twice a year. A clean filter is essential for clear water and efficient circulation.

Question 8

What is pool equipment maintenance?

Accepted Answer

Equipment maintenance includes inspecting and servicing your pump, filter, heater, and automation system. We check for leaks, unusual noises, and proper operation. Regular maintenance prevents costly breakdowns and extends equipment life by years.

Question 9

How much does pool service cost in Ormond Beach?

Accepted Answer

In 2025, professional pool service in Ormond Beach typically ranges from $140 to $200+ per month. While you may find budget options for $100-$120, these often exclude specialty chemicals, lack insurance, or skip essential preventative maintenance. Float On Pools provides premium, all-inclusive service starting at competitive rates for the value provided.

Question 10

Why do some companies charge only $100/month?

Accepted Answer

Low-cost providers often operate as Splash & Dash services. To stay profitable at that rate, they must rush through visits (skipping brushing or filter checks) and use cheap, harsh chemicals that can damage your pool surface over time. They also rarely carry proper liability insurance, putting you at risk.

Question 11

What areas do you service?

Accepted Answer

We proudly serve Volusia and Flagler counties, including Ormond Beach, Daytona Beach, South Daytona, Holly Hill, Palm Coast, and Flagler Beach. We also service specific communities like Plantation Bay, Breakaway Trails, and Hammock Dunes. Our service radius is 25 miles from Ormond Beach.

Question 12

Do you require a long-term contract?

Accepted Answer

No, we do not lock you into long-term contracts. We believe our quality of service should be enough to keep you as a customer. We offer month-to-month service agreements for your flexibility.

Question 13

Why are you more expensive than many providers?

Accepted Answer

Quality and reliability come at a cost. We hire trained, background-checked technicians, carry full liability insurance, and use premium chemicals to ensure your pool is safe and sanitary. Many cheaper providers cut corners on chemicals or skip visits. With Float On Pools, you pay for peace of mind, consistent communication, and a pool that is always ready to swim in.
