Due to the electrics in a Spa we cannot assist with repairs at this time, we can however assist with parts and maintenance.
This will obviously vary depending on the pool and filter size, how regularly the pool is being used and its proximity to overhanging trees and downpipes, but a good rule of thumb is as follows:
Summer: Two lots of four hours throughout summer is advised, providing that your filters and chlorinators are properly sized and in good health.
Winter: If your pool is getting used less frequently during winter then you can probably afford to back it off to two lots of two hours.
If your filter is too small for your pool then you will need to run it for a lot longer – if you’re uncertain, give us a call on (07) 3281 0955, we are always happy to help. For more tips see here
The best thing that you can do for the long-term health of your pool and to ensure that your water doesn’t go green is to spend 2-3 minutes every day checking your pool’s equipment and ensuring that everything is working correctly.
A big hit of rain could still throw out your water balance, but regular checks will considerably reduce the likeliness of your pool turning green.
Ipswich Pool and Spa Centre also provide a regular pool servicing and maintenance service, where we send a professional to check your pool once a month and ensure that everything is in working order.
A green pool is a sign that there is an algae problem with your water and is something that needs to be addressed as soon as possible, as time will only make the problem worse.
It is advised that if your pool has gone green then you call in a professional to fix the problem. Read more about our treatments for a green pool here.
If your pool has just received a big hit of freshwater from rain then the first thing that you will need to do is throw in some chlorine as the rain pulls it all out. How much chlorine you will need will depend on the size of the pool but you are probably looking at about 5-10 litres for the average sized backyard pool (50,000 litre pool).
Once you’ve topped up the chlorine levels, we advise bringing a sample into our store so that we can test it for you and ensure that the balance is correct.

Yes, robotic pool cleaners can be used for above-ground pools, but it's essential to choose one specifically designed or compatible with above-ground setups.
To measure your pool for a solar cover, simply measure the pool length (at the longest point), and width (at the widest point), treating the pool as large rectangle. The pool cover sits inside the pool, and floats top on the water, so take your measurements from inside the pool, at the waterline. We add a little extra when we make it, to allow for any shrinkage, and so that you can leave the solar cover to roll up the inside of the pool wall a little, to stop leaves from falling into the water.
Most of the time, a pool is just measured as if it is a straight rectangle. The cover is supplied as a rectangle, and you trim it to shape on your pool once it arrives.
However, If you have a step out on one edge, that creates a lot of wastage, so you can opt to have a step piece welded on separately. To do this, your pool shop will need to know the length and width of the main cover, the length and width of the step, and also, the exact position of the step (Left flush, right flush, offset left or offset right). We also recommend a diagram be supplied to avoid issues – because solar covers are not reversible, you can’t just flip them over if its backwards. (The flat side faces up, and the bubble side faces down into the water).
Covers supplied this way will also need to be trimmed to an exact fit.
