An acid wash for Cairns pools is available now. If you’re having issues with staining at the bottom of the pool or have a pool that has been taken over by algae due to poor winterising or stagnant water, our Acid Washing service is especially helpful in these instances (often referred to as a “drain and clean”).
Acid washing removes a thin layer of your plaster, gunite, or Pebble-Tec to reveal a fresh surface. This removes algae, minerals, chlorine, and even dirt stains from the bottom and sides of your pool. If your pool was poorly maintained in the past or has had stagnant water that turned into an algae bloom, algae and phosphates can become embedded in your pool’s finish, making it nearly impossible to get rid of. Acid washing your pool removes any algae or phosphates that are not otherwise removed with chemicals. When finished, the acid washing process gives your pool a clean, fresh, new finish and clear, sparkling water.
