"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.

We will definitely be using his services again."

"Tyler from Central Ohio Pool and Spa is great! Nothing but good things to say about his work, and I will definitely be hiring him again for anything I need done to my pool or any of the equipment."
"Mike got us out of a jam - we needed an emergency repair just before a holiday and the spa dealer had a two week lead time. He called me back promptly, showed up on time, completed the repair, gave me an explanation and recommended a maintenance plan to prevent another failure. Well done."
"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. If you test the water and the alkalinity is too low, you can raise it by adding an alkalinity increaser, which likely came with your hot tub’s chemical kit. In a pinch, you can use baking soda to raise the hot tub’s alkalinity. Raising the alkalinity will prevent the hot tub water from becoming too acidic.
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.
Similar to a hot tub, swim spas last anywhere from five to 20 years, depending on quality and your attention to maintenance. The best way to increase the lifespan of your swim spa is to carefully maintain it—including draining it around every six months to deep clean the parts.
You’ll know you need to replace the pump in your hot tub if you hear loud or unusual noises when the machine is running or notice a significant decrease in water pressure. A leak or altogether failure of the hot tub may also indicate a problem with the pump, but you’ll need a professional to investigate the source of the issue.
Algae-related green hot tub water is generally safe to use, as algae aren't usually harmful to your health. However, if the conditions in the hot tub are hospitable to algae growth, they may also be hospitable to the growth of other types of microorganisms, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, bacteria that can cause hot tub rash, or Legionella bacteria, which can cause respiratory illness.
