You’re managing commercial properties with pools that run 24/7. Guests complain about cloudy water. Tenants mention eye irritation. Your current pool company shows up, dumps some chemicals in, and leaves—but nobody explains what they’re doing or why.
Sound familiar?
Here’s the thing—commercial pool chemical balancing isn’t just about throwing chlorine in the water. It’s about understanding the science behind water chemistry and how high-traffic pools behave differently than backyard pools. We take commercial pool cleaning to a whole new level.
We teach you what’s happening with your pool. After our initial assessment, you’ll understand your water chemistry better than most pool companies do. That’s not an exaggeration—that’s our 30-40 minute “Pool School” approach that’s kept commercial properties in Long Beach trusting us for 15 years.
✓ Expert water chemistry for pools running 24/7
✓ Same-day response to chemical emergencies
✓ Clear explanation of every adjustment we make
✓ Certified expertise with extended equipment warranties
24-hour response guarantee. When your hotel pool turns green before a weekend at capacity, we’re there. Our dedicated office manager means you actually reach someone who can help.
We serve commercial properties throughout Long Beach, Seal Beach, and surrounding areas—from high-rise apartments in Downtown Long Beach to waterfront hotels in Belmont Shore. Properties with pools that can’t afford downtime.
Real chemical expertise. We don’t just test and dump. We explain the “why” behind every chemical adjustment so you can communicate confidently with property owners and understand what you’re paying for.
Your pool’s chemistry affects everything—tenant satisfaction, equipment lifespan, even your insurance liability. When chemical levels are off, problems multiply fast.
Here’s what happens when commercial pool chemistry isn’t managed right:
Most property managers we meet have the same story. Previous poolcompany showed up weekly, tested the water for 30 seconds, dumped in some chlorine, and left. Nobody explained what the numbers meant or why the water kept turning cloudy.
Here’s why that approach fails for commercial pools: High-traffic pools running 24/7 behave completely differently than residential pools. Bather load, sunlight exposure, circulation patterns—everything affects chemistry differently when you’ve got 50+ people using the pool daily instead of a family of four on weekends.
The local factor: Long Beach’s coastal environment adds another layer of complexity. Salt air affects evaporation rates. Higher humidity impacts chlorine effectiveness. The pool companies that treat your commercial property like an oversized backyard pool? They’re guessing.
We worked with a 120-unit apartment complex in Bixby Knolls last year. Maintenance manager there was fighting green algae every other week despite “regular service.” After one Pool School session, he understood his filtration system was undersized for the bather load, pH was consistently too high (reducing chlorine effectiveness), and calcium hardness was destroying his heater.
Three months later? Crystal clear water, no emergency calls, and his property manager stopped questioning the pool budget.
We’ve been providing commercial pool chemical balancing throughout Long Beach since 2010. Started with a few apartment complexes, now we manage water chemistry for properties ranging from boutique hotels in Naples to large multi-family communities in East Long Beach.
Properties we serve:
“After two years of fighting algae blooms every summer, Adam’s team figured out our issue in one visit. Now I actually understand what’s happening with our pool chemistry. Haven’t had a single complaint in eight months.” – Carlos M., Maintenance Manager, Belmont Shore
Here’s what property managers achieve when they switch to our service: Consistent water clarity, reduced equipment repair costs, and the knowledge to explain pool chemistry to property owners. No more guessing whether your pool company actually did anything during their weekly visit.
Jandy Certified Installer: Extended warranties on all equipment we install or service, plus faster warranty claim processing when issues arise.
15 years of commercial experience: We’ve balanced chemistry for pools serving 200+ residents, hotel pools with daily guest turnover, and facilities running filtration systems 24/7 year-round.
24-hour response guarantee: Chemical emergencies don’t wait for business hours. We’re available when your pool turns green before a holiday weekend or when a pH spike threatens to corrode your new heater.
Most pool companies test and treat. We test, explain, adjust, and teach. That’s the difference between a maintenance manager who understands their pool system and one who’s just hoping things stay clear until the next service visit.
What happens: We test 8-10 chemical parameters—not just chlorine and pH. We’re looking at total alkalinity, calcium hardness, cyanuric acid, phosphates, and more. For commercial pools running constantly, these numbers tell us what’s really happening.
What’s included:
Timeline: 30-40 minutes for initial assessment
Our approach: We don’t just dump chemicals and hope for the best. Every adjustment is calculated based on your pool’s specific volume, current chemistry, and usage patterns. Then we explain exactly what we’re adding and why it matters for your system.
Professional methods we use:
Timeline: 45-60 minutes per service visit
How we ensure you understand: This is our “Pool School” approach. After the first visit, you’ll know more about your pool chemistry than most pool service companies. We explain what each chemical does, why certain numbers matter, and what to watch for between our visits.
What you learn:
Ongoing commitment: Commercial pools change constantly. Summer heat increases evaporation. Heavy weekend usage spikes chlorine demand. We adjust our chemical program based on your pool’s actual behavior—not some generic schedule.
What this includes:
Coastal environment expertise: We understand how Long Beach’s salt air, humidity, and temperature patterns affect commercial pool chemistry. The waterfront hotel in Alamitos Bay needs different chemical management than the inland apartment complex in Lakewood—even if the pools are identical size.
We’ve seen every combination of high bather load, aging equipment, and challenging water conditions this area throws at pools. That experience means fewer surprises and faster solutions when issues do come up.
We get these questions every week from maintenance managers evaluating pool service companies. Here’s what you actually need to know.
Honest answer: Commercial service runs $400-$800+ monthly depending on pool size, usage intensity, and service frequency.
What affects pricing: A 10,000-gallon apartment pool with moderate use costs less than a 25,000-gallon hotel pool serving 100+ guests daily. Heavy bather loads require more frequent testing, additional chemicals, and closer monitoring.
Here’s what matters more: Proper chemical balancing prevents equipment failures. That $400/month service investment prevents the $6,000 heater replacement or $4,500 filter system repair that happens when pH stays too low for six months.
Our commitment: Transparent pricing with no surprise chemical charges. You’ll know upfront what weekly service costs and what’s included.
Timeline: Most high-traffic commercial pools need weekly service minimum. Hotels, apartment complexes with heavy summer use, or pools near the coast may need twice-weekly visits during peak season.
Your usage patterns determine frequency. A 50-unit apartment building where residents actually use the pool daily needs more attention than a condo complex where the pool sits mostly empty.
Our efficiency advantage: We document trends in your water chemistry so we can predict when issues will arise—not just react after your pool’s already green.
Quality assurance: You’ll receive written test results after every visit. We explain what each number means and why we made specific adjustments.
Our guarantee: If your pool develops algae or chemistry-related problems between service visits, we come back out at no charge. That’s how confident we are in our chemical programs.
Local expertise: We’re Jandy Certified Installers, which means extended warranties on equipment and manufacturer backing for our service standards.
What makes us different:
We actually explain what we’re doing. Most commercial pool services treat maintenance managers like they don’t need to know the details. We spend 30-40 minutes on the first visit teaching you about your specific pool system—water chemistry, equipment quirks, everything.
Commercial systems expertise: We understand pools running 24/7 with multiple pumps and filters. That’s different than residential weekly cleaning, and most pool companies don’t specialize in the commercial side.
Our guarantee: 24-hour response for chemical emergencies and same-day callback on all inquiries. When your hotel pool turns cloudy on Friday before a fully-booked weekend, you need someone who actually answers the phone.
Risks of DIY or delay: Commercial pools have legal liability attached. One health code violation or injury claim related to improper water chemistry costs more than years of professional service.
What happens without expert management: Equipment corrodes faster, surfaces stain permanently, and you’re reacting to problems instead of preventing them. The maintenance manager at that Bixby Knolls property we mentioned earlier? He was spending 6-8 hours monthly fighting chemistry issues before we took over.
Long-term value: Professional chemical balancing extends equipment life by 3-5 years, eliminates emergency service calls, and keeps your amenity generating revenue instead of sitting closed with an “out of service” sign.
Poor water chemistry doesn’t improve on its own. Every week you delay, the problems compound. Algae spores multiply. Corrosion eats deeper into your heater coils. Staining becomes permanent instead of superficial.
The longer you wait:
Long Beach properties see peak pool usage May through September. Heavy bather loads during summer stress your water chemistry like nothing else. More swimmers means more organic matter, more sunscreen contamination, more pH fluctuations—all of which demand expert management.
Current availability: We’re scheduling new commercial accounts now before summer hits full capacity. Properties that wait until June when pools are already struggling? They’re dealing with green water and emergency service rates.
Commercial and residential swimming pool construction, repair and service. We are here to serve you.
