Equipment installation, seasonal changeovers, green pool recovery and acid washing in Northbridge. Andy is independent, so the unit he recommends is the one that suits your pool and your plant space rather than whatever a supplier is pushing that month. Quoted upfront, and the quote is the price.

Northbridge sits on a peninsula with bush gullies on either side, and plenty of the blocks step down from the street rather than sitting flat. That decides more than people expect. Whether a heat pump can physically reach the plant space, whether a pump can be heard from the neighbour's deck, and how much leaf lands on the water through autumn all follow from it. Andy walks the access route before quoting, not after.

Pool services in Northbridge

Equipment installation

A heat pump that is right for the pool and cannot be carried to the plant space is the wrong heat pump. Andy checks the route in, the pad, the power and the clearances first, then quotes. Astron, Zodiac, BWT, Pentair, Jandy, Waterco and Aquaheat.

Winterising and summerising

Worth doing on a pool with real canopy over it, because six months of leaf litter on an uncovered surface is what creates next season's staining. Shutdown in late May, start-up in early October, done as a pair.

Green pool recovery

Andy identifies the cause, restores the water, then fixes the equipment or circulation issue underneath so the same thing does not happen next autumn. From $550, two to three days for most pools.

Acid washing

Organic staining that has built up under a canopy will not brush out once it is into the surface. Drain, pressure-wash, acid-wash, refill and rebalance, three to four hours on site. From $1,100.

“Andy has done such as amazing job across all aspects of pool services from putting in a whole new pool pump, heat pump and pool storage area as well doing a fantastic job in keeping the pool looking pristine on a monthly basis. Andrew is incredibly committed, very reasonably priced, is always ready to help and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Andrew for all your pool works and maintenance”

Pool questions from Northbridge

Can a heat pump be installed if the plant space is down a flight of stairs?

Usually, but it changes the quote and sometimes the unit. Weight, width through the gate, the pad it will sit on and the clearances it needs for airflow all matter. Andy looks at the route before recommending anything, which avoids the situation where the right unit turns up and cannot get in.

Will a new pump be loud enough to bother the neighbours?

It does not have to be. A variable-speed pump run at a lower speed for longer is far quieter than an old single-speed unit at full noise, and an acoustic enclosure takes off more again. On blocks where the plant sits near a fence line that is worth planning for at installation.

Is there any point winterising a pool with a heat pump?

If nobody swims between May and October, yes. Running a heat pump through winter to keep a pool nobody uses at temperature is the most expensive way to own one. Andy will run through what it actually costs either way. Call 0468 650 172.
