Quick Answers About Our Deep Pool Cleaning Services
-
What is deep pool cleaning? A detailed, intensive service that removes heavy debris, algae, buildup, stains, and sediment while restoring water chemistry and filtration performance.
-
When do you need a deep clean? After storms, long periods without maintenance, seasonal openings, heavy debris buildup, cloudy water, or recurring algae.
-
How long does deep cleaning take? Most pools see noticeable improvement in one visit; severely neglected pools may require follow-up service.
-
Do you serve Sacramento homeowners? Yes — including Folsom, Roseville, El Dorado Hills, Natomas, and more.
-
Is deep cleaning different from weekly service? Yes — deep cleaning targets problems that routine service cannot fix.
What Is Deep Pool Cleaning?
Deep pool cleaning is an advanced, top-to-bottom service that removes heavy debris, built-up dirt, scaling, algae, stains, and fine sediment while restoring proper water balance, filtration efficiency, and system performance.
​
It’s the reset your pool needs when routine cleaning isn’t enough.
​
When Do You Need a Deep Pool Cleaning?
A deep clean goes far beyond weekly maintenance. It’s ideal when your pool shows:
​
-
Heavy debris on the pool floor
-
Stains, buildup, or calcium scaling
-
Cloudy, dull, or hazy water
-
Recurring algae or early-stage algae growth
-
Poor circulation or weak flow
-
Dirty or underperforming filters
-
Long gaps between cleaning or off-season inactivity
-
Post-storm dirt, leaves, and organic material
-
Fine sediment that home vacuums cannot remove
-
Water that “won’t stay clear” even after chemical balancing
When these issues appear, a deep cleaning helps reset your water, filtration, and circulation so regular maintenance can work properly again.
​
Our Deep Pool Cleaning Process
AOK Pool Care uses a detailed, multi-step cleaning process that restores your pool from top to bottom.
​
1. Full Inspection & Water Analysis
We begin with a thorough evaluation of:
​
-
Chlorine, pH, alkalinity, calcium, and CYA
-
Circulation strength and flow rate
-
Filter performance and pressure
-
Visible stains, buildup, or scaling
-
Algae activity
-
Equipment condition (pumps, timers, baskets, etc.)
This diagnostic step tells us exactly what your pool needs to recover.
​
2. Heavy-Duty Brushing of All Surfaces
We scrub areas where buildup hides:
​
-
Floors
-
Walls
-
Steps
-
Tile lines
-
Corners and shaded areas
-
Hard-to-reach spots
This removes scaling, algae, dirt, and organic film that normal cleaning can’t remove.
​
3. Professional Vacuuming (Including Fine Sediment Removal)
Our commercial-grade vacuums remove debris that homeowner vacuums leave behind:
​
-
Fine sediment
-
Dirt and dust
-
Dead algae
-
Heavy organic matter
-
Leaves and deep-settled debris
Your water becomes visibly clearer in a single service.
​
4. Filter Cleaning or Backwashing
Deep cleaning nearly always impacts filtration. We:
​
-
Remove and rinse cartridge filters
-
Backwash DE or sand filters
-
Inspect for clogs and partial blockages
-
Clean pump baskets, skimmer baskets, and screens
-
Verify filter pressure and turnover
A clean filter is essential for long-term clarity and proper water flow.
​
5. Shock Treatment (When Necessary)
If algae or organic contamination is present, we perform a calculated shock treatment to:
​
-
Kill algae
-
Oxidize contaminants
-
Improve water clarity
-
Restore chemistry balance
We never over-chlorinate — treatments are precisely measured for your pool.
​
6. Water Chemistry Balancing
Once the pool is physically clean, we restore proper water chemistry, including:
​
-
Chlorine
-
pH
-
Total alkalinity
-
Calcium hardness
-
CYA (stabilizer)
-
Salt levels (for saltwater pools)
alanced chemistry protects equipment, prevents new algae, and improves water clarity and swimmer comfort.
​
7. Follow-Up Monitoring (As Needed)
For neglected pools or heavy buildup, we may return to confirm:
​
-
Chemistry levels remain stable
-
Filtration is running efficiently
-
Debris is not reappearing
-
No algae has regrown
-
The system is circulating properly
This ensures your pool stays clean long after the deep cleaning.
​
