Pool Calcium Removal Process

 

Step 1
Before we begin the pool blasting process, we lower the water level in your swimming pool. Don’t worry – we won’t empty your swimming pool or wastewater. In fact, we only lower the water level by about 3-6” – just below the calcium line. We do this so that we have clear access to the residue on your pool tile/Pebble Tec. The water is drained to your sewer washout using an industrial pump.

 

Step 2
cleaning After the water is at an optimal level, we enter your pool with our customized equipment. The state-of-the-art pool cleaning equipment was built specifically for swimming pool bead and salt blasting. We use glass beads and Epsom salt to achieve the best results. Glass bead blasting is the best method for removing calcium and minerals from your swimming pool Pebble Tec and Epsom salt is the best cleaning method for swimming pool tiles. Both medias are environmentally friendly and do not involve the use of chemicals which can damage your pool and leave an undesirable residue. Additionally, using glass beads and Epsom salt in the calcium removal process assures you that your swimming pool tile and Pebble Tec will not be faded or damaged!

Step 3

Once we are in the water and our equipment is in place, the glass beads or Epson salt are then shot against your pool tile/Pebble Tec at low pressure. This carefully removes calcium, mineral buildup, chemical residue and hard water stains.

​

Step 4

Once the glass bead or Epsom salt blasting is finished, we wipe down the surface by hand to remove any additional residue that might still be on the waterline. At this time, you will be able to see how the pool calcium removal process has completely freed your pool tile or Pebble Tec surface of any stains and or residue. After residue has been removed and the tile has dried we apply a polish to protect the tile from further water damage. The pool tile surface will be clean and glossy.

 

Step 5

Finally, we use our own portable vacuum system to sweep the glass beads and Epsom salt out of your swimming pool and into our portable water filtration systems. This leaves no mess for you to clean up! Then the pool calcium cleaning process is complete. The entire pool calcium removal process normally takes about 3 hours for a regular sized swimming pool.
