POWER VAC POOL SERVICE • ,
Power Vac Pool Service in ,
When your pool is green, cloudy, or loaded with debris, Empire Pools’ Power Vac service gives you a fast reset.
In , that usually means heavy leaf load after wind and rain, fine silt that settles into corners,
and “dead spots” that keep re-clouding even after you shock — especially after
, , and .
We’re in and out of neighborhoods near Medford Station, Eagle Estates, and routes off
, , and the ,
so we know what pools here look like after storm cycles and heat spikes.
We start with a quick safety and circulation check (water level, skimmers, pump prime, filter pressure, and return flow),
then choose the right cleanup method: vac-to-waste when debris and algae need to be physically removed from the system,
or vac through the filter when your setup can handle it without choking off flow. From there we brush walls, steps, and trouble areas
to break loose film, then run slow, controlled vacuum lanes to pull what’s on the floor without stirring the whole pool back up.
You’ll get clear, practical next steps (run-time, backwash/clean timing, and chemical guidance) so the pool continues improving over the next
24–72 hours instead of bouncing back to cloudy again.
What to Expect
Built for Heavy Cleanups in
Power Vac is designed for pools that are beyond a normal cleaning — thick leaves on the floor, algae blooms
after a late opening, pump or filter issues that left the water cloudy, or heavy debris after storms. We start by
checking circulation, equipment, and water level so we can safely vacuum to waste or through the filter depending
on your setup. Our techs brush and manually vacuum the floor and trouble spots, purge debris, and set up circulation
so filtration and chemicals can do their job after we leave. You’ll get clear notes on follow-up steps and whether
a second visit is recommended based on how your pool responds over the next 24–72 hours.
What’s Included
- Visual inspection of pool, equipment pad, and water level before we start.
- Manual floor and wall brushing to break up algae and debris.
- Power vacuuming to waste or through the filter (based on plumbing and condition).
- Leaf and debris removal from floor, corners, and common dead spots.
- Filter pressure check and basic backwash/rinse to restore flow where possible.
- Shock and chemical guidance based on pool volume and current readings.
- Circulation pattern review (returns aimed correctly, skimmers pulling well).
- Texted notes on what we did, what we recommend next, and what to watch for.
- Note: Power Vac focuses on cleanup, not equipment repair — pump, filter, or plumbing fixes are quoted separately if needed.
- Note: Severe “swamp” pools may require multiple visits — we’ll explain options and expected timelines clearly on site.

Medford Power Vac — FAQs
What’s the difference between a normal cleaning and a Power Vac?
A normal cleaning is routine upkeep. A Power Vac is a heavier reset for green/cloudy water, thick debris on the floor, or post-storm mess — with brushing, targeted vacuuming, and a plan to keep the pool improving over the next 24–72 hours.
Do you vacuum to waste or through the filter?
It depends on your setup and condition. We use vac-to-waste when algae/debris needs to be physically removed from the system, and filter-vac when your plumbing and filtration can handle it safely. We decide on-site after a quick circulation and pressure check.
Will my pool be swim-ready the same day?
Sometimes, but most pools clear over 24–72 hours after the Power Vac as filtration and chemistry finish the job. If it’s a severe “swamp,” we’ll tell you up front if it’s likely a 2–3 visit project.
What should I do right after the Power Vac?
Run the pump continuously at first, keep an eye on filter pressure, and follow the chemical/run-time notes we leave you. If you have a cartridge filter, plan on rinsing it sooner than usual because it’ll catch a lot of the remaining fine debris.
Do you need anything from me before you arrive?
Safe gate access, the water level at least mid-skimmer, and a clear path to the equipment pad. If you can, text us a couple wide photos of the pool and equipment so we can show up prepared.
