Start Up

Once the pool has been filled, Custom Luxury Pools will add the proper chemicals to it, then complete a final inspection of the pool, and circulation and filtration systems. Once all the post-construction checks have been completed, CLP will contact you to schedule "Pool School" to teach you how to care for and operate your new pool. During this walkthrough, you are encouraged to record the process of operation (in case you need to refer back to it later) and ask questions.
Some key points that will discussed are:

• Skimming surface water for debris
• Brushing the pool sides to reduce algae buildup
• Checking and emptying the skimmer baskets for debris
• Checking filter pressure and setting it properly
• Cleaning the filter
• Turning the pump on and off and knowing how often it should run
• Checking the pool’s chemical levels and pH balance
• Shocking the pool
• Turning the lights on and off and keeping all lights working
• Basic best practices for landscaping around your pool

​At Pool School, you will receive a pole, basket, brush, and test kit to aid in maintaining your pool.
