Question 1

Is Pool Basix a weekly pool-cleaning company?

Accepted Answer

No. Pool Basix is a preventative-maintenance and equipment-care company. We handle deeper equipment maintenance and inspections on a schedule, while you handle routine weekly pool care.

Question 2

Do I still maintain my pool between visits?

Accepted Answer

Yes — that’s the idea. You handle the basics like skimming, checking water, and basic chemistry. We handle the equipment and deeper maintenance you’d rather not.

Question 3

How often should Pool Basix visit?

Accepted Answer

For most pools, a quarterly visit (four times a year) keeps equipment running well. Some homeowners prefer a single seasonal visit — we’ll recommend a schedule based on your pool and equipment.

Question 4

What happens during a Pool Basix visit?

Accepted Answer

We clean your filter, inspect and check your major equipment, perform preventative maintenance, and leave you a clear condition report covering what looks good, what needs attention, and what may need repair.

Question 5

Do you clean pool filters?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Filter cleaning is part of every visit. We clean your filter and inspect it for visible wear, damage, or signs it’s due for replacement.

Question 6

What equipment do you inspect?

Accepted Answer

We inspect pumps, filters, valves, plumbing, visible connections, and other major equipment — checking operation and looking for potential issues.

Question 7

Can you make repairs?

Accepted Answer

We complete eligible minor repairs when appropriate. For larger repairs, we provide clear recommendations so you can make an informed decision.

Question 8

Are repairs included in the service price?

Accepted Answer

No. Your visit covers inspection, filter cleaning, preventative maintenance, and your condition report. Minor repairs and replacement parts are quoted separately when needed, so you always know the cost up front.

Question 9

What happens if you find a major problem?

Accepted Answer

We document it clearly in your condition report and explain your options. We never pressure you into repairs — you decide what to do and when.

Question 10

Can you help me understand how my pool works?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Helping homeowners understand their pool is part of what we do. We’re happy to walk you through your equipment and how it all works together.

Question 11

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

Accepted Answer

No long-term contract is required. You can schedule a single visit or choose a quarterly plan and pause or adjust it anytime.

Question 12

Can I use Pool Basix if I currently use another pool company?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Some customers add Pool Basix for deeper equipment care alongside a weekly service, or transition to handling the basics themselves. We’ll work with whatever setup fits you.
