Commercial pool service in Los Angeles follows a stricter rulebook than backyard care, and our commercial and HOA pool service is built around it. We clean, test and document pools and spas at HOAs, apartment and condo buildings, hotels and gyms across LA County, and every visit leaves a written record your manager can show an inspector.

Pool Cleaning Los Angeles is owner-operated, licensed and insured. Our owner services your property personally, so boards and managers deal with one accountable person for cleaning, chemistry and equipment.

What's Included in Commercial Pool Service

  • Scheduled cleaning. Skimming, brushing, vacuuming, tile line cleaning and basket service on a schedule sized to how many people swim.
  • Chemistry to state minimums. Free chlorine, pH, alkalinity, calcium hardness and stabilizer tested and adjusted to California's public pool requirements.
  • Log entries. Our readings, chemicals added and equipment notes written into your log, plus a photo and readings by text to the manager.
  • Equipment checks. Filter pressure, flow, pump, heater, chemical feeders and timers checked every visit.
  • Drain cover check. Federal law has required anti-entrapment drain covers at public pools and spas since December 19, 2008, so we report any cover that is missing or damaged. (Source: CPSC)
  • Repairs. Pumps, motors, filters, heaters, lights and automation fixed through our pool equipment repair service.

What LA County and California Expect of Shared Pools

In LA County, any pool on the grounds of a hotel, motel, inn, apartment complex or any residential setting other than a single-family home counts as a public pool. (Source: LA County Public Health) County inspectors oversee about 3,200 public pools, including those at hotels and health clubs, plus about 12,000 pools and spas at apartment and condo buildings with 5 or more units. (Source: LA County Public Health)

California's Title 22 requires operators to test disinfectant and pH at least once a day and keep a written daily log. (Source: Cal. Code of Regs. Title 22, 65523) Pools must hold at least 1.0 ppm free chlorine, or 2.0 ppm with stabilizer, and public spas at least 3.0 ppm, with 10.0 ppm as the maximum. (Source: Cal. Code of Regs. Title 22, 65529)

The daily test stays with your on-site operator. Our visits add a full test panel, log entries and the corrections the numbers call for.

Signs You Need Better Commercial Pool Service

  • Gaps or guesswork in the daily log, especially on weekends.
  • Residents or guests complaining about red eyes, a chemical smell or cloudy water.
  • Inspection notes about chemistry, clarity or equipment.
  • A spa that reads low on sanitizer after busy evenings.

Busy pools build chloramines fast, and the CDC reports that most city, county and state health departments cap combined chlorine at 0.4 ppm. (Source: CDC) Spas carry the most risk: in CDC data for 2015 to 2019, hotels and resorts were linked to 34% of treated recreational water outbreaks, and 70% of those involved hot tubs. (Source: CDC MMWR)

What Affects the Cost of Commercial Pool Service

  • Bodies of water. A pool plus a spa or wading pool is separate work.
  • Visit frequency. Driven by bather load, hours and whether a spa is present.
  • Size and volume. Larger pools need more cleaning time and chemicals.
  • Equipment. Chemical feeders, heaters and automation add checks.
  • Reporting. Board reports or a management company's log format.

Commercial Pool Service in Los Angeles: Local Factors

Backwash is a local issue for commercial pool service in Los Angeles. In the City of LA, commercial or public pool filter backwash may never go to the storm drain. (Source: LA Municipal Code 64.70.02) Unincorporated LA County bars filter backwash from the storm drain too. (Source: LA County Public Works) Pools in Long Beach, Pasadena and Vernon should also check local guidelines, since county enforcement covers unincorporated areas and contract cities.

Why choose us

Why LA Boards and Managers Choose Us for Commercial Pool Service

1 accountable owner

One Contact Who Was Actually There

With us, boards and property managers talk to the person doing the work, not a dispatcher. The same person services your pool, writes in your log and answers your questions about it. When an inspector or a resident asks what happened on a given day, you have someone who was at the pool that day and can explain the readings and what was done about them.

6 readings on record

Records That Hold Up

Every visit produces an entry in your written log plus a photo and six readings by text, so your records show more than a checkmark. Title 22 requires pools that use cyanuric acid to test it at least once a month. (Source: Title 22, 65523) We measure stabilizer on every visit, so a current result is always in the log.

0 long-term contracts

Month to Month, Licensed and Insured

Commercial service is month to month, so we keep your account by doing the work, not through a multi-year agreement. We are licensed and insured for pumps, filters, heaters, lights and automation, and we take calls 7 days a week, 6 AM to 10 PM, including the weekends when shared pools see the most swimmers. When equipment fails, the fix comes from the same company.

FAQ

Commercial & HOA Pool Service FAQ

Do you keep the daily pool log for us?

We record our readings, chemical additions and equipment notes in your log on every visit. California requires a disinfectant and pH test at least once a day, so on days we are not there, your on-site staff runs the test and logs it.

Can you service our pool and spa on the same visit?

Yes. Pools and spas are tested and dosed separately, since public spas must hold a higher disinfectant level than pools. Both get cleaned and both get logged.

What types of properties do you service?

HOA and condo associations, apartment buildings, hotels and motels, gyms and fitness clubs, and other shared pools across LA County. We set the visit schedule around how many people use the pool and when.

Can you help after a health inspection finds problems?

Yes. If an inspection notes chemistry, clarity or equipment issues, we can correct the water, clean the pool and diagnose or repair the equipment involved, then record what was done in your log. Permits and operator duties stay with the property.
