Most pool service companies are not truly balancing your water correctly.
Yeah, we said it.
At G&H Waterscapes Pool Service, we don’t just test your pool to see if each chemical falls inside a generic “acceptable range.”
We balance using LSI the Langelier Saturation Index.
And that’s a big difference between basic pool service and professional pool care.
A lot of pool companies look at:
✔️ pH
✔️ Alkalinity
✔️ Calcium
✔️ Chlorine
…and if those numbers look “good,” they call it balanced.
That’s not how proper water chemistry works.
Because water chemistry is not about checking boxes.
It’s about whether all of those numbers are working TOGETHER.
That’s why we factor in the full picture, including:
✔️ pH
✔️ Alkalinity
✔️ Calcium
✔️ CYA
✔️ Temperature
✔️ TDS
When water is not balanced properly, it can still be:
❌ Aggressive and damaging plaster/surfaces
OR
❌ Scale-forming and hard on salt cells, heaters, and equipment
So yes, a pool can look clear and still be slowly causing damage.
That’s why we don’t do surface-level testing or the bare minimum.
We take a more educated and calculated approach to protect your:
✅ Plaster
✅ Tile
✅ Salt system
✅ Heater
✅ Equipment
✅ Water quality
Because “in range” doesn’t mean balanced.
And that’s why not all pool service is the same.
