02. What Pool Cleaning at Bling Bling covers
The scope of work in Linz at a glance — what the contract says and what actually happens on site.
Measure the water, do not estimate it
pH, free and combined chlorine, total alkalinity, calcium hardness and, where stabilised chlorine is used, the cyanuric acid are determined photometrically. Test strips are good enough for a trend, not for deciding on dosing.
Plant room and dosing
Pump running time, seals, backwash valve, heat exchanger and, where fitted, the dosing and measuring equipment are checked. The running time is matched to the pool volume so that the contents pass through the filter several times over the course of the day.
Winterising and recommissioning
In autumn the water level is dropped below the inlet nozzles, pipework and pump are drained, frost protection is set and the cover goes on. In spring the empty pool is deep cleaned, filled, the values are set and the season starts with a shock chlorination.
Cover pit and pool cover
In the pit of a below-deck cover, water stands with little circulation, and that is exactly where biofilm sits on the slats, the walls and the roller tube. Slat packs are cleaned run out to full length, the pit is drained, brushed and vacuumed.
Overflow channel, grating and balance tank
With an overflow pool the channel, the grating and the surge tank come with it: solids settle in the tank and, with residual chlorine, form a layer of sludge that loads the whole water system. Drain, clean, check the level sensor and the float switch.
Pool material treated differently
Liner pools tolerate neither hard brushes nor a permanently low pH, tiled pools need work on the joints, and polyester and GRP pools no abrasive products, because of the gelcoat layer. What is used is settled at the pool once the condition has been assessed.
In the industrial surroundings, iron-bearing dust gets into the pool, and iron behaves differently from organic soiling: it is oxidised by chlorine, comes out as a brownish floc and leaves marks on light liners and gelcoat surfaces that cannot be brushed away. The work is done with sequestration, flocculation and vacuuming, and the fill water is tested for iron and manganese before the season starts. Near the river and the harbour, plant rooms lie in flood-prone positions, which is why pumps, pipework and electrics there get particular attention after the winter.
03. Pool Cleaning: Bling Bling vs. the competition
A pool does not stay clear through chemistry but through circulation, filter performance and a stable pH — chlorine is the last link in the chain, not the first. Cloudy water, or water on the turn, almost always has its cause in the hydraulics: too short a running time, caked filter sand, a half-closed intake. That is why we check baskets, filter pressure and running time first, measure the values photometrically and record them, instead of adding more product and hoping. We give the cost range after the inspection, because pool volume, plant and use determine the work involved. In Linz, Bling Bling works with the same core team that knows the building.

Cell, quartz sleeve, UV lamp, seals and hoses are recorded with a photograph and the type designation, so that replacements can be ordered before the failure comes.
10A season plan with a record
From the start of the season to winterising it is settled when measuring, backwashing and brushing take place. The values stay traceable, so that when there is a problem the cause is found and not the symptom.

08. Pool Cleaning for 5 typical situations
The same service looks different depending on the occasion — these five situations come up most often.
Green water after heat or a thunderstorm
Heavy rain and pollen bring nutrients and spores into the pool, and heat accelerates chlorine consumption. That is a visit of its own with shock chlorination, flocculation and repeated backwashing.
After two or three weeks away
Without brushing and backwashing, biofilm settles on the walls and at the waterline. The earlier it is dealt with, the less chemistry it takes.
Winterising in autumn
The appointment at which frost damage is prevented: pipework empty, pump empty, water level dropped, values set for the standing period.
Taking over a house with unfamiliar plant
After a purchase it is often unclear how the filter, the dosing and the counter-current unit have been run. We survey what is there and hand over operating instructions for everyday use.
After heavy rain that washes in soil and clay
From sloping plots, fine mineral silt gets into the pool which the filter does not catch. That is a visit with flocculation, floor vacuuming and repeated backwashing.
★ Worth knowing
What is often misjudged about Pool Cleaning
Said up front, on the facts — not after the invoice.
Biofilm sits wherever no water is being circulated
Bacteria form a slime layer of polysaccharides which disinfectants only attack at the surface — which is why biofilm is present even in a pool with correct chlorine levels as soon as flow is missing. The typical places are the cover pit, the overflow channel, the balance tank, the skimmer flap, the floor jets and the air channels behind massage jets; warm pipework with little flow is additionally where Legionella multiply, and massage jets and showers produce exactly the aerosol that is then breathed in. What works is always the combination of opening the layer mechanically, flushing and a shock treatment afterwards — one product on its own is not enough. For commercially used installations the requirements of Austrian pool hygiene law apply to this; privately it remains a question of how the plant is run.
Water that is too soft attacks the pool, water that is too hard comes out of solution
The calcium carbonate and carbonic acid equilibrium depends on pH, total alkalinity, calcium hardness and temperature: if the sum sits too low, the water is hungry for lime and dissolves jointing mortar, concrete surfaces and tile adhesive, which shows up as a sandy joint and a rough wall. If it sits too high, calcium carbonate precipitates and settles as a hard deposit on the waterline, the liner, the heat exchanger and the electrolysis cell — and a coated heat exchanger heats measurably worse. With liner pools there is the further point that a permanently low pH drives the plasticisers out of the liner and leaves it brittle and wrinkled. That is why we measure not only chlorine and pH but also alkalinity and calcium hardness, and set them in that order.
Salt electrolysis needs maintenance; it is not maintenance-free
An electrolysis cell produces chlorine from the salt dissolved in the water, and on the plates precisely that scale comes out which never becomes visible in the pool: production falls off gradually without the unit reporting a fault, and the self-cleaning polarity reversal is not enough with hard fill water. Descaling is done to the manufacturer's instructions with dilute acid and without scraping, because the coating on the plates is lost in the process and the cell is then a spare part. The second point is the chloride load: salt water attacks stainless steel on ladders, handrails, cover profiles and screws as pitting corrosion, and it makes natural stone at the pool edge effloresce, which is why these parts are rinsed and checked after the season. Salt is not consumed; water loss dilutes it — topping up follows a measurement, not a feeling.

●. Frequently asked questions about Pool Cleaning in Linz
What does Pool Cleaning cost?
There is no price before the site visit, and a figure given over the phone rarely holds. We look at surfaces, access and time windows, and then the cost framework is set out in writing with a schedule of services. What changes the price: the area, the frequency, the condition at handover and the time of day the work is done.
Is the site visit really free?
Yes, free of charge and without obligation. It is the only way to quote seriously, so we treat it as part of the offer, not as a service to be paid for.
Does the same person come every time?
Yes. The team is permanently employed and knows the building, the access arrangements and the routines. Cover is arranged in advance and named, and it works from the building log, not from a verbal handover.
Is your staff properly registered?
All of them, with social insurance. No chain of subcontractors in which nobody is liable at the end. Proof is provided on request.
What insurance is in place?
Public liability of €3m, covering personal injury, property damage and financial loss. The certificate is attached to the quotation.
What happens if something is not right?
It is put right within 48 hours, in writing, at no extra cost. Measured against the schedule of services and a joint inspection, not against an impression.
Can you work outside business hours?
Yes — early, late, at weekends or on public holidays. In occupied buildings, daytime cleaning in sections is often the better option, because the client sees the work and can raise anything immediately.
Do I have to provide materials or a room?
Materials and equipment we bring. What helps is a lockable store with a slop sink, space for the trolley and somewhere for pads to dry — damp pads in a closed bag are the most common source of smell in an otherwise clean building.
What notice period applies?
The contract is terminable monthly. There is no minimum term and no automatic extension by the year.
Do you also work in English?
Yes — German, English and five further languages. The briefing gets through, which matters more on site than it sounds.
Which documents do I get?
A schedule of services with frequencies, a dated record of each visit, photo documentation before and after, and a monthly report.
How quickly can you start?
Usually within a few working days of the quotation being accepted. Short-notice jobs are most readily possible in Vienna, because travel times within a district are short.
