Recommended Options

Filter Cleaning

Filters will get backed up with many things such as organics, suntan lotions, oils, and chemical residue. To extend your equipment’s life, MCM Pools recommends that you chemically clean the filter at least twice each season. Don’t start the season on a bad foot by using a clogged-up filter. Request your filter cleaning today!

Choose:

  • Acid Quick-Cleaning – Same day treatment for your filter cleaning, providing a deeper cleanse for your filter.
  • Premium Acid Cleaning (2-3 day process) – We take your filter back to the shop and place your filter into an acid bath for a 24 hours period. This allows for an industrial cleanse, and provides your filter with the deepest possible cleaning. After a rinse, the filter is returned to you at no additional cost!

Salt Cell Cleaning

The Key piece of equipment for a salt water pool is the salt cell generator.

If you have a salt water pool, you know how expensive a generator is and how important it is to maintain. These generators require inspection every 3 months. To extend the life of the generator it is standard procedure to soak it in a special acidic solution to remove any built-up deposits from chlorine generation.

Start the season with a clean and efficient salt cell generator by adding this service when you schedule your appointment.
