Q: How do you find a good inground pool company?

• <div><p>Finding a reputable inground pool installation company starts with an online search and assessing a company&rsquo;s positive and negative reviews. You can also check the Better Business Bureau&rsquo;s reports for companies you&rsquo;re considering to see if they have numerous customer complaints for poor service. One of the best things you can do to find a good company is ask for references and then call those past customers to see how they felt during the installation process and how their pool has held up. Finally, you can get estimates from the remaining companies to compare.</p></div>

Q: What happens to a pool pump if it isn’t primed?

• <div><p>A swimming pool pump has to have water in it to run properly. If the pump isn&rsquo;t primed and tries to run when it&rsquo;s dry, the components will overheat which can cause the pump to seize up and can even damage the PVC pipes that carry the water into and out of it. Essentially, running a pump that isn&rsquo;t primed can lead to having to replace the entire pump.</p></div>
