Q: How do pool remodeling costs compare to new pool construction?

• <div><p>Remodel costs vary, often 50-70% of new construction costs, depending on remodeling depth and choices for feature additions or modifications.</p></div>

Q: Should air come out of my pool jets?

• <div><p>No, pool jets should not have air coming out. While it&rsquo;s a common problem, making it seem like air coming out is the norm, bubbling pool jets are a sign of loose bearings or fittings, or low water levels. You should get to the bottom of your jets releasing air bubbles because it could be a sign that there&rsquo;s air entering the pump, which can shorten the lifespan of your pump or lead to costly repairs.</p></div>

Q: Do you have to drain a pool for an acid wash?

• <div><p>There are some companies that offer acid washes that do not require pool draining. However, the process can take several days and requires a bit more elbow grease to scrub the pool surface compared to draining it entirely. Since your pool surface and age are both a factor, work with a professional to choose the best method.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to swim in a cloudy pool?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not ideal to swim in a cloud pool, as it can be a sign of algae, bacteria, or calcium buildup as well as chlorine, pH, or alkalinity imbalances. It is best to avoid cloudy water in pools until you determine the cause of the color change.</p></div>
