Maintenance FAQ
How often should Lake Charles pools be serviced?
Weekly service is recommended for Lake Charles pools due to Louisiana's heat, humidity, and heavy pollen. These conditions accelerate algae growth and chemical consumption. Weekly service prevents problems and keeps pools swim-ready year-round.
What's included in spring pool opening service?
Complete opening includes cover removal and storage, deep cleaning, equipment start-up and inspection, water chemistry testing and shock treatment, and ensuring everything operates correctly. Takes 2-4 hours depending on pool condition.
Do you provide chemicals or do we purchase them?
Crown Pools provides all chemicals needed to maintain your pool. Chemicals are included in your monthly service rate. We use professional-grade products optimized for Lake Charles water conditions—better quality than retail store chemicals.
Can I swim right after service?
Generally yes, unless we've performed shock treatment or added high chemical doses. If swimming must be delayed, we'll clearly communicate this and post a notice at your pool. Typical service allows immediate swimming.
