Pool School by Wade In The Water Pools

Dive into Confidence: Your Pool School Experience

At Wade In The Water Pools, we believe owning a pool should provide joy, relaxation, and peace of mind — not confusion or stress. That’s why we’re proud to introduce our Pool School: a personal, on-site training experience where our expert team comes directly to you, showing you how to use your equipment, maintain your water, and keep your pool shining all season long.



What We Cover

When our technician arrives for your Pool School session, you’ll get hands-on, in-person instruction including:

  • Equipment walkthrough: We’ll go step-by-step through your pump, filter, heater (if present), automation systems, controls, and any special features you have (e.g., salt systems, LED lighting, waterfalls, etc.).
  • Water chemistry explained: Learn the fundamentals of pH, alkalinity, sanitizer levels, stabilizer, and how they interact. We show you how to test the water, interpret the results, and make safe adjustments.
  • Routine maintenance schedule: We’ll teach you how often to backwash or clean the filter, how to inspect and clean skimmers and baskets, when to vacuum or brush the pool, and seasonal to-do’s.
  • Troubleshooting basics: We’ll cover common issues (cloudy water, algae growth, pump noise, heater not firing) and what to check before calling for service.
  • Hands-on practice: You’ll try the controls yourself, ask questions in real time, and gain confidence in managing your system.
  • Customized tips: Based on your pool’s design, location, and use-patterns, we’ll give you tailored recommendations to keep things running efficiently and beautifully.
