Your Pool Is Losing Water
If you notice the water level of your pool is lower than usual or slowly decreasing, you may have a leak within the structure of your pool that needs to be patched. We would also recommend not to swim inside your pool if the water levels aren’t where they are supposed to be, as less water affects the pH levels, making it possibly dangerous to swim in, especially for your eyes or open wounds. Call us immediately at 540-502-7665 to schedule a pool repair to fix your water leak!
Cracks in the Pool Structure
If you notice any cracks in your pool structure—whether on the walls, floor, or edges—reach out to Alpha Pools USA right away. Cracks can escalate into serious breaks, potentially leading to leaks that compromise the integrity of your pool. We’ll thoroughly assess the cause of the crack, as some may be related to structural issues while others might only be superficial. Regardless of the cause, Alpha Pools USA is committed to repairing any crack in your pool and restoring it to its best condition!
Unusual Noises from Pool Equipment
There are plenty of unusual noises that may indicate your pool or pool equipment needs repair. Here is a list of noises to keep your ear open for:
- Grinding: This indicates a problem with your pool pump. There could be a blockage or debris clogging the pump, creating a grinding noise. We can help fix the blockage to help get your pool pump working again!
- Humming: A humming noise often indicates an issue with the bearings in your pool pump. Bearings are essential for rotating the pump, so when they fail, the pump can stop working altogether. If you hear this sound, it’s important to contact the professionals right away to prevent further damage and ensure your pool pump is up and running smoothly.
- Screeching: This noise can be attributed to your pool pump’s motor. There might be something wrong with how the motor is spinning, and therefore it should be replaced or repaired as soon as possible.
Water Quality Issues
You should pay attention to your pool water quality regularly, as if unchecked, it could start to form algae growth, unwanted pH levels, and dirty water overall. Whenever there is a water quality issue with your pool, it most likely concerns your water filter. We are able to fix or replace any water filter so your pool can go back to being refreshing and clean! Having a pool cover installed can also go a long way to keeping your pool pristine.
Discolored Tile or Pool Structure
Discoloration of your pool tiles and structure can indicate mold or bacteria growth. This is often caused by imbalanced pH levels or improper cleaning. Either way, Alpha Pools USA will identify the source of the problem and repair any necessary equipment to restore your pool’s appearance and keep it looking its best.
