Meadowridge is quiet, leafy and settled, with pools that mostly date to when the suburb was built. Kwik Pools services it alongside Bergvliet on the standing Southern Suburbs route.

Pool services we offer in Meadowridge

What Meadowridge pools deal with

The pool stock here is largely seventies and eighties, and the pattern is consistent: solid shells, surfaces on their second or third life, and plant that has been replaced piecemeal over the years rather than as a set. The result is often a pump that does not match the filter, on plumbing that matches neither.

Mature gardens add the usual Southern Suburbs leaf load, heaviest through autumn, with the organic matter that comes with it driving up chemical demand well after the leaves have been skimmed out.

Where a pool has mismatched plant, sorting it as a set rather than one item at a time makes an immediate difference to both the water and the electricity bill. It is one of the few pool jobs where the payback is visible within a month, and it usually costs less than owners expect because the shell needs nothing.

Questions from Meadowridge pool owners

My pump and filter were replaced at different times. Does it matter?

It does. Mismatched plant means poor turnover and higher running costs.

How long should a marbelite surface last?

Fifteen to twenty years with balanced water. Much less if the pH has been running low.

How we work in Meadowridge

Meadowridge is served on our Southern Suburbs route. Weekly, fortnightly and one off visits are all available, and you get a note after each visit with what was done and where the water sat.

Looking after a Meadowridge pool

Meadowridge is leafy, with big established trees on many properties. That is lovely in summer but it means leaves, pods and pollen end up in the pool most of the year. Skimmer baskets fill quickly and organic matter uses up chlorine fast, so the water can turn cloudy even when you are dosing regularly.

A leaf net or cover is the best investment for most Meadowridge pools. It cuts cleaning time, keeps the filter from blocking and makes chemical balancing much easier.

Being close to the mountain, many homes also get more winter rain, which can push the pool level up and dilute the chemicals. After heavy rain, check the level and the chlorine, or ask us to do it on your next service visit.

Why does my pool go cloudy even with chlorine?

Leaves and pollen use up chlorine quickly. Clearing the debris and balancing the water usually sorts it out.

Will a cover help with leaves?

Yes. A leaf net or solid cover stops most debris before it reaches the water.
