| Studio City Pool Cleaning Service Tips
How does a poolowner know what to look for when choosing a maintenance company to manage her water feature. Here we will list some things to look for that promote professionalism in the industry. All service companies who operate in Los Angeles must be licensed, insured and pay the appropriate taxes. For public pools LA County requires certification for the technician who is on-site providing weekly chemical and maintenance. For cities like Sherman Oaks, North Hollywood and Studio City, pool cleaning companies must carry this minimum licensing. Aside from these, look for membership in reputable professional agencies like the Association of Pool & Spa Professionals, or UPA or IPPSA - these provide pool service technicians with business liability insurance which covers property damage that may result in the course of their duties. Also, look for higher skilled licensing that is required for repairs. For small items like filter grids, a timeclock replacement, or pool motor does not require additional licensiing, however for larger items like a circulation pump, pool heater or automation system, a C61 Contractor Limited Specialty classification is necessary. You can always check with the State License Board to find the status of your technicians' license. If excavation of the deck for underground plumbing or skimmer replacement is proposed, ask to see their C53 status which entails years of experience and more stringent testing. Your pool professional should be able to answer all of your questions and provide detailed estimates when quoting any improvements to the pool equipment or structure, or even simply presenting a service quote. At Spectrum, we comply fully with all licensing agencies and have many years of experience that we bring to our daily operations.
