"In late June, 2018, we hired Eric to do an inspection on our pool pump and also to put in two LED light systems where our regular lights USED to be!!! I had read, from previous people's reviews that Eric was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about pools and we DEFINITELY found that to be the case!!! Not ONLY did he seem to know EVERYTHING about pools, he explained EVERYTHING to us on how it worked, as well!!! We also found him to be honest, friendly, polite and EXTREMELY easy to work with!!! I would DEFINITELY recommend Eric to ANYONE who needs service and/or work done on their pool or spa and we will MOST DEFINITELY be calling Eric IF we have ANY pool problems in the future!!! Thank-you and God Bless you, Eric!!! Sincerely, Julie Mc., Salida, Ca."

"Torrey is very good at what he does. He is very knowledgeable and professional. II appreciated his honesty and his patience while I asked a lot of questions. He explained the problem well and then went over all repair/replace options with me . He was kind to my dogs......a big plus! I have used Burketts and Leslies Pool guys in the past, but I will continue my service with Torrey and Atlas Pools."

"I originally made contact with Andrew, the owner, asking if he could maintain the pool at my parents house as they are getting older and cannot maintain it on their own. Andrew and his company stepped up in my time of need after a few other companies would not return my calls. Although the area where my parents live is a little bit out in the country from where their main customers in the city are located, Andrew said that he would make it work. True to his word, his company has been taking care of the pool for the last 3 months or so. My parents have been extremely happy with the service and I am extremely grateful for the work that Andrew and his team have provided."

"We had issued with our sweeper breaking down and the pool became quite dirty. Pam was able to come out right away and get our pool back in shape. She took her time and did a fantastic job going above and beyond what I expected in the quickest time! She had to come several days in a row to get the pool up to standards, she was kind enough to fit us in on top of her already busy days. Her prices were more than fair. I was so happy with her service I asked to have her come service our pool weekly. I highly recommend her service! 5 stars for sure!"

Pool and Spa Servicing FAQs, answered by experts

A hot tub cover's lifespan is typically between three and seven years, with an average of five to seven years for a well-maintained one. The quality of the cover is a major factor; lower-quality polyester or vinyl soft covers can tear easily with regular use.

To extend the life of your cover, proper maintenance is key. This includes:

  • Keeping the cover clean, dry, and out of the sun. Use a soft cloth and mild dish soap for cleaning.

  • Applying a vinyl protectant spray.

  • Cleaning the underside with a chlorine spray.

  • Using a cover lift to prevent damage from rough handling.

  • Protecting it from harsh weather.

  • Keeping children and pets off the cover.

Investing in a high-quality cover and checking for a warranty at the time of purchase can also contribute to its longevity.

Where you drain a hot tub largely depends on local regulations, but you must not drain chemically treated water where it can damage the environment. Direct the water toward a sanitary sewer drain that will take it to a treatment facility. If your lawn has a dedicated drainage area that’s free from plants and foundations, you can likely drain it there. Avoid storm drains, as the hot tub water will enter waterways and could hurt aquatic life. Likewise, do not pour it out directly on any public land or where it can get into your neighbors’ property. 

To refill a hot tub after winter, start by opening up the tub and giving it a quick cleaning. If you use antifreeze, drain out the water then grab a hose and thoroughly clean the tub shell out, spraying water into each jet of the tub. 

Reconnect the hot tub and turn the power back on. When it’s time to fill the tub again, insert the hose into the filter well (if available). Avoid trapping too much air in the water lines, which can cause the pump to lock up when it starts again. Add the necessary chemicals and start the heating process. It will take some time—most of a full day—for the water to heat up again.

Yes, hot tubs can use a significant amount of electricity, primarily to keep the water heated. A typical hot tub uses between 1,500 and 6,000 watts, and the pump can add another 1,500 watts. This usage can result in a monthly cost of around $20 to $30. The exact amount of electricity consumed depends on several factors, including the hot tub's age, size, heater voltage (120V vs. 240V), usage habits, and thermostat setting. Newer, energy-efficient models generally use less power than older ones. To reduce electricity costs, consider investing in an energy-efficient model, using a quality insulated cover with a thermal blanket, and keeping the filters clean.

Follow these general safety tips for spas and hot tubs:

  • Keep your exterior electrical receptacles covered and dry, especially around your hot tub and pool during periods of use.

  • Make sure you have a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) properly installed to ensure no one gets accidentally shocked or injured by electrocution. 

  • Don’t use the hot tub or your pool during a thunderstorm. 

  • Before using the hot tub, have a certified electrician thoroughly inspect your hot tub and its wiring to make sure you’re in full compliance with all applicable local building codes.
