"My husband and I put in an inground pool this Summer. We were so excited but much to our surprise the plumbing wasnâ t working like we had hoped. After several failed attempts to try and get someone to help us we got ahold of Aqua Shoppe Pool and Spa! Nick was quick to respond and so helpful in fixing our plumbing issues with our pool. We will definitely be using his services again."

"Eric did a TREMENDOUS job with closing my pool. As a first time pool-owner, Eric took time to explain details and his process to me. I will be hiring him when it's time to re-open the pool next year! I HIGHLY recommend Eric for your next pool project of any kind!"
"First time owning a hot tub... The owner gave us a one-page document with everything we needed to know! The repair was pretty expensive compared to other sites but I guess we paid for the labor to have it done that day."
"It was great, the pool technician was very helpful and kept us updated on what repairs were needed. He followed up after his visit to ensure we knew the next steps. 10/10 would have this technician again."
Pool and Spa Servicing questions, answered by experts
Yes, they provide full-service inspections, identifying and resolving any potential equipment problems.
Generally, it is more cost-effective and energy-efficient to leave your hot tub on all the time rather than turning it on and off. Reheating a hot tub from a cold temperature consumes a significant amount of energy, so maintaining a constant temperature is usually more economical, especially with frequent use.
For daily or weekly use, it's recommended to keep the water at a constant, reduced temperature, such as between 80 and 95 degrees Fahrenheit, and then increase it to your desired temperature before getting in. If you know you won't be using the hot tub for an extended period, you can lower the temperature to save on energy costs. However, if you use it very infrequently, you can turn it off completely, as long as there is no risk of the water freezing.
If you don’t clean your hot tub filters, they’ll build up dirt and grime, preventing them from filtering out contaminants like dirt and bacteria. The dirty water will then circulate through the filter and back into the hot tub, leading to dirty water, a damaged pump and jets, and low heat. This can lead to higher hot tub costs because you may have to pay for repairs.
Yes, you can use silicone or epoxy hot tub repair kits to repair cracks in a hot tub. Always read the manual to see what the manufacturer recommends before attempting to repair a hot tub.
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.
