Quick Summary: 5 Essential Steps
- Surface Skimming & Debris Removal - Daily removal of leaves, insects, and floating debris prevents contamination and keeps filtration systems efficient
- Brushing & Scrubbing - Weekly brushing of walls, floors, and corners prevents algae buildup and eliminates stubborn dirt
- Vacuuming & Deep Cleaning - Thorough vacuuming removes settled debris and maintains crystal-clear water quality
- Chemical Balance Testing - Regular pH, chlorine, and alkalinity monitoring ensures safe, sanitized swimming conditions
- Filter Maintenance & Equipment Check - Cleaning filters and inspecting equipment guarantees optimal performance and extends pool lifespan
Maintaining a sparkling, safe swimming pool requires more than just adding chlorine and hoping for the best. At Cleaner Kenya, we understand that Nairobi's tropical climate presents unique challenges for pool maintenance—from increased algae growth during rainy seasons to higher evaporation rates during hot, dry months. Our professional pool cleaning service follows a comprehensive approach that ensures your pool remains a pristine oasis year-round.
Surface Skimming and Debris Removal
The first line of defense in pool maintenance is daily surface skimming. Nairobi's abundant vegetation means pools constantly collect leaves, blossoms, and insects. Our team uses professional-grade skimmers to remove this floating debris before it sinks and decomposes, which would otherwise create staining and increase chemical demand. This simple yet crucial step prevents your filtration system from becoming overwhelmed and maintains water clarity. We also empty skimmer baskets and remove any debris from around the pool perimeter, ensuring nothing gets tracked back into the water.
Brushing and Scrubbing
Even with excellent filtration, pools develop biofilm and algae on surfaces, particularly in shaded areas or along the waterline. Our technicians systematically brush all pool surfaces—walls, steps, ladders, and corners—using appropriate brushes for your pool's material, whether tiles, concrete, or fiberglass. This mechanical action dislodges algae spores before they establish colonies and removes calcium deposits and stains that chemicals alone cannot eliminate. Special attention goes to areas with poor circulation, such as behind ladders and in corners, where algae thrives.
Vacuuming and Deep Cleaning
After brushing, thorough vacuuming captures all settled debris and the particles dislodged during scrubbing. Cleaner Kenya employs both manual vacuuming for detailed work and automatic pool cleaners for efficiency, depending on your pool's needs. We vacuum the entire pool floor in overlapping patterns, ensuring no spot is missed. For pools with heavy debris or visible algae, we perform waste vacuuming that bypasses the filter entirely, preventing contamination. This deep cleaning process is essential for maintaining that inviting, crystal-clear water Nairobi pool owners expect.
Chemical Balance and Water Testing
Proper water chemistry is the foundation of pool health and swimmer safety. Our professionals test multiple parameters: pH levels (ideal range 7.2-7.6), chlorine concentration, total alkalinity, calcium hardness, and cyanuric acid levels. Nairobi's water supply characteristics and weather conditions affect these parameters differently than in other regions. We adjust chemicals precisely—adding chlorine for sanitization, pH balancers to prevent corrosion or scaling, and algaecides when necessary. Balanced water not only protects swimmers but also extends the life of your pool equipment and surfaces.
Filter Maintenance and Equipment Inspection
Your pool's filtration system is its heart, and regular maintenance is non-negotiable. We clean or backwash filters according to type—sand, cartridge, or DE filters each require specific procedures. Our team inspects pumps, checking for unusual noises or leaks that signal problems. We verify that return jets provide proper circulation, examine pool lights for safety, and ensure all automated systems function correctly. This preventive approach catches small issues before they become expensive repairs.
