Dale’s uses The Wave, an Optical Scanning Water Analysis System. It is a faster and a more accurate pool and spa water testing system. Just bring a 3—4 oz. water sample to our store, and our experienced team will test your water and help you select the right products to keep it balanced.

Schedule Service

Pool opening

  • Removal and storage of safety cover.

  • Removal of wall fitting plugs

  • Install ladders or handrails

  • Prime pump(s) / filter and check for leaks

For the best results, we recommend scheduling your pool opening at least one week before you plan to use your pool. This allows time for the water to circulate, chemicals to balance, and any algae or water-quality issues to clear. Pools that open green or with heavy algae may require additional treatment or service to restore clear, properly balanced water.

Sand Changes

Over time, filter sand can become worn and less effective at trapping dirt and debris, reducing your filter’s performance. If your pool water is becoming harder to keep clear or your filter isn’t performing like it used to, it may be time for a sand change. Dale’s Pools can inspect your system and replace the filter sand to help restore proper filtration and keep your pool water clean and clear.
