Frequently Asked Questions about our pool filter cleaning services in Virginia Beach & Norfolk:

How often should I have professional pool filter cleaning done?

The frequency of professional pool filter cleaning in [Service Area] depends on your filter type, pool usage, and environmental factors. Generally, cartridge and D.E. filters should be professionally cleaned every 3-6 months. Sand filters typically need deep cleaning (backwashing) more often, and sand replacement every 5-7 years.

What are the signs my pool filter needs cleaning?

Common signs include cloudy or murky water even with balanced chemicals, reduced water flow from return jets, a consistently high filter pressure gauge reading, and an overworked-sounding pool pump.

Is professional pool filter cleaning included in recurring pool cleaning?

Our recurring pool cleaning service includes routine tasks like emptying baskets and backwashing (for sand filters). However, the deep, disassembling clean required for cartridge and D.E. filters, or a full sand change, is typically a separate, specialized pool filter cleaning service.

Can a dirty filter damage my pool equipment?
