Services
Pool Installation
Fox Pools & Spas designs and builds custom in-ground vinyl liner pools tailored to client preferences. Our process includes site consultation, design collaboration, and full installation with premium materials. Clients receive integrated features like tanning ledges, waterfalls, and lighting for personalized backyard transformations.
Pool Cleaning
Our cleaning services include weekly, bi-weekly, and vacation coverage to maintain pool hygiene and chemical balance. Technicians vacuum, test water, add chemicals, and backwash filters to ensure optimal clarity. Customers receive a 10% discount on pool chemicals with auto-charge convenience.
Repair & Troubleshooting
We diagnose and fix pool equipment malfunctions, including pumps, filters, and liners. Emergency services address urgent issues like leaks or system failures. Technicians arrive in branded vehicles with diagnostic tools to resolve problems efficiently, often completing repairs in under an hour.
Salt System Installation
We install and repair salt chlorination systems for new or existing pools. This service converts traditional chlorine pools to saltwater systems, offering benefits like softer water, reduced chemical odors, and natural sanitization. Technicians assess pool size and usage to recommend optimal system specifications.
Pool Opening/Closing
Our seasonal services prepare pools for summer use or winter storage. Opening includes equipment reassembly, chemical balancing, and debris removal. Closing involves winterizing equipment, adding stabilizing chemicals, and secure cover installation to protect pools during colder months.
