Every case below is a documented service event from our Front Range operations log.
Littleton, CO · HOA Community Pool
Neglected Common-Area Pool
Littleton HOA: Full Chemical Remediation
The pool management company for a 340-unit Littleton HOA contacted us after their previous vendor missed 4 consecutive visits. Combined chlorine had spiked, CYA was critically low, and the pool had entered the early stages of algae colonization. Colorado's UV index had accelerated chlorine burn-off to near-zero.
Shock treatment + phosphate remover
DE filter teardown + backwash cycle
CYA stabilizer adjustment + final balance
| Parameter | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Free Chlorine (ppm) | 0.2 | 3.0 |
| pH | 8.4 | 7.5 |
| CYA Stabilizer (ppm) | 12 | 45 |
| Total Alkalinity (ppm) | 48 | 110 |
| Calcium Hardness (ppm) | 95 | 250 |
Outcome: Pool reopened for residents within 6 days. HOA board signed quarterly maintenance contract.
Parker Homeowner: Algae Bloom + Filter Failure
A Parker homeowner with a 22,000-gallon gunite pool called us after a two-week vacation. Phosphate levels from yard runoff had fed a green algae bloom. The DE filter was running at 28 psi (nearly twice the safe operating pressure), indicating a torn grid. Chlorine demand was so high that standard dosing had zero effect.
Service Breakdown
Phosphate treatment (PhosFree, 2L)
Starved algae of food source
Triple-shock protocol (calcium hypochlorite)
Broke chlorine demand cycle
DE filter teardown + grid replacement
Restored filtration to spec
CYA rebalance + pH correction
Stabilized chlorine retention for CO altitude
Algaecide follow-up (Day 4)
Prevented regrowth during rebalance period
| Parameter | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Free Chlorine (ppm) | 0.0 | 3.2 |
| Combined Chlorine (ppm) | 1.8 | 0.1 |
| pH | 7.8 | 7.4 |
| Phosphates (ppb) | 820 | <50 |
| DE Filter Pressure (psi) | 28 | 12 |
Outcome: Pool cleared in 5 days. Homeowner enrolled in bi-weekly service plan to prevent recurrence.

I called on a Tuesday with a green pool. By Friday it was crystal clear. They explained every step — phosphate levels, the DE filter issue, why the triple-shock was necessary. I actually understood what they were doing.
