Fast, Heavy-Duty Cleanup

Power Vac Specialists — Heavy Debris Removal & Clarity Reset

When storms, algae, or construction dust overwhelm your pool, a Power Vac is the fastest way back to clear water. We remove leaves, sludge, and silt with high-suction equipment and, when needed, vacuum directly to waste so debris leaves the pool instead of your filter.

Important: The pool must be clear enough to see the bottom of the deep end before service begins. Pricing is provided on-site as a free estimate—no obligation. You can accept or decline on the spot; if you agree to the price, we’ll perform the service immediately during the same visit.

Deep Debris Removal — leaves, sludge & silt

We net, scoop, and power-vac heavy bottoms, steps, and corners to get rid of the bulk fast. Ideal after storms or long downtime.

Heavy-duty cleanup

Vacuum to Waste — bypass the filter

For severe jobs, we route discharge to waste so fine particles don’t clog your media. This accelerates recovery and protects equipment.

Fastest path to clear

Brush & Agitate — lift algae & fines

Walls, floor, and trouble areas are brushed to release stuck algae and silt so they can be removed during the Power Vac.

Algae lift & removal

System Monitoring — pressure & flow

We prime the system, monitor filter pressure, and backwash/rinse as needed to keep flow optimal throughout the visit.

Protects equipment

Targeted Chemistry — only if approved

Quick water test with recommendations. Shock/algicide or clarifier/floc used only with approval and billed as line items.

Clear, line-item options

Water Level Management — top-off/stop

We watch the water level during vacuum-to-waste and advise on topping up. We can coordinate water delivery if needed.

Safe level control

Photo & Notes — transparency you can see

Before/after photos and job notes are logged so you know exactly what was done and what’s next.

Documented results

Signs You Need This — don’t wait

Green or cloudy water, heavy leaf bed, visible silt, or dust from nearby construction. Weak returns and fast filter pressure spikes are also red flags.

Do you guarantee clear water?

Yes — with regular service, your water is guaranteed clear. If issues occur, we return within 48 hours free of charge.

Crystal-Clear Water Starts Here

Chemical Visit Specialists — Test, Treat & Clarity Prep

When water turns hazy or green, a targeted Chemical Visit resets your chemistry and circulation. Our goal is to get the water clear enough to see the bottom of the deepest part of the pool so we can move on to a Power Vac (final debris removal). After that last step, your pool is ready to use.

Comprehensive Water Testing — accurate diagnosis

We check free/combined chlorine, pH, alkalinity, stabilizer (CYA), and hardness to pinpoint why clarity has dropped and determine exact dosing.

Data-driven adjustments

Shock & Oxidizer — crush contaminants

Measured oxidizer boosts based on pool volume and bather load to eliminate chloramines and jump-start clear water recovery.

Precise by volume

Algae Treatment — green, yellow, or black

Targeted algaecides and thorough brushing to detach growth from walls and floors so filtration and follow-up Power Vac can remove it.

Brush + treat combo

pH & Alkalinity Balance — protect surfaces

We correct pH/TA into the ideal range for sanitizer efficiency and comfort, protecting finishes and equipment.

Stable, effective water

Clarifier / Floc — only when it helps

For fine suspended particles, we may use clarifier or flocculant. Floc is set to settle overnight, prepping for a Power Vac to waste.

Prep for Power Vac

Circulation & Filter Care — keep water moving

We ensure proper pump run-time, backwash/rinse as needed, and verify flow so chemicals mix evenly and clarity returns faster.

Faster recovery

Aftercare Guidance — simple next steps

Run the pump continuously for 24–48 hours, brush surfaces, and keep the cover off. We advise when chlorine is safe for swimming.

Clear, simple plan

Signs You Need This — before it gets worse

Hazy/green water, slimy walls, strong chlorine odor (chloramines), or recurring cloudiness after backwash. Address chemistry first, then vac.

Stop the spiral early

Crystal-Clear Water Starts Here

Filter Cleaning Specialists — Deep Clean, Inspection & Media Reset

Your pool’s filter is the heart of circulation. When it’s clogged with oils, sunscreen, pollen and fine debris, clarity tanks and pressure rises. Our full service restores flow, lowers pressure, and puts your system back in its sweet spot.

Full Filter Cleaning — complete teardown & wash

System powered down and isolated, filter opened and all internal elements removed. We rinse housings, manifolds, standpipes and o-rings, then reassemble to manufacturer specs with fresh lube where required.

Deep clean • Proper reassembly

Full Filter Inspection — find issues before they spread

We inspect cartridges, DE grids or laterals for tears, broken stitching, cracked end caps, channeling, and warped manifolds. Tank band, air relief, gauge and o-rings checked and replaced if needed.

Safety & performance check

Full Cartridge Cleaning — degrease & descale

Cartridges are soaked in a professional degreaser/descaler to remove oils and minerals, then pressure-rinsed along the pleat channels. Restores pleat depth and extends media life.

Chemical soak + channel rinse

Complete Filter Rinse — housings & internals

We rinse the tank body, internal plumbing and diffuser to eliminate trapped fines and mud. This prevents instant re-clogging after startup.

No residue left behind

Chemical Included — correct cleaners for your media

We select the right chemistry for cartridge, DE or sand systems. Enzyme/degreaser for oils, acid-safe descale when needed, and neutralization/rinse to protect plastics and seals.

Pro-grade solutions included

New DE Added — correct charge every time

For DE filters, we recharge grids with the manufacturer-specified amount (by sq-ft of grids), evenly slurried through the skimmer to coat uniformly.

Proper DE by square footage

Startup & Baseline — before/after pressure

We bleed air, check for leaks, and record clean filter PSI so you know when to service next (typically when PSI rises 8–10 above baseline).

Logged clean-PSI baseline

Signs You Need This — don’t wait for cloudy water

Cloudiness that returns fast, weak return jets, pressure rising quickly after backwash, or visible oil/mineral staining on cartridges or grids.

Restore flow & clarity

Persistent Green / Cloudy Water

Treating With Flocculant (“Floc”) — What It Is, How It Works, and the Trade-Offs

Flocculant (often called “floc”) binds tiny suspended particles and dead algae into heavy clumps that sink to the floor so you can vacuum to waste. It can deliver overnight clarity — but it’s not a silver bullet. Expect water loss, refilling, and sometimes more than one vacuum to remove all settled floc. On sand/cartridge systems with weak flow, persistent cloudiness is common even after floc.

What Is Floc? — a settling agent

Flocculants are polymers that grab fine debris and dead algae, forming heavy “flakes” that drop to the bottom. Unlike clarifiers (which help the filter catch particles), floc aims to settle and remove by vacuuming to waste.

Goal: Settle → Vacuum to waste

When To Use / Avoid — set expectations

Use for stubborn cloudiness after algae kill, heavy pollen/dust events, or post-construction debris. Avoid if you cannot vacuum to waste (many cartridge systems), or when you can’t afford a major water drop.

Must have: Waste line or bypass

Prep The Pool — chemistry & circulation

Test/adjust pH to ~7.2–7.4, get free chlorine to target (post-shock), empty baskets, brush walls/floor, and clean/backwash filter. Remove robots and take covers off. Run pump to mix evenly.

pH 7.2–7.4 • Pump ON

Dose Accurately — follow the label

Measure pool gallons and dose per manufacturer. Over-dosing can create gummy residue; under-dosing leaves fines suspended. If product calls for pre-dilution, mix in a clean bucket first (chemical → water).

Precision matters

Mix Briefly, Then Power Down — let it fall

Circulate on filter (or recirculate/bypass if available) for 30–60 minutes to distribute. Then shut the system OFF completely. Allow 12–24+ hours for full settling (longer in cold water).

12–24h undisturbed

Vacuum To Waste — slow and steady

Set multiport to WASTE. Vacuum slowly in straight lanes from deep end to shallow. Avoid stirring clouds. Expect the water level to drop; refill as needed. Do not send floc through the filter.

Expect water loss • Refill

Aftercare & Re-Balance — finish strong

When done, switch back to FILTER, top up water, bleed air, and test/adjust pH, alkalinity, and chlorine. Backwash/clean filter if pressure rises. Brush again to remove any film.

Test & brush post-vac

Cartridge & Sand Filters — limits & workarounds

Cartridge: Most housings lack a waste setting; consider a vac-to-waste bypass or skip floc and use clarifier + deep cartridge cleaning. Sand: Works better, but channeling or old media may cause re-clouding.

Bypass needed on many cartridges

Common Reasons Floc “Fails” — diagnose, adjust

Wrong dose, disturbed settling (pump turned on), vacuumed too fast, no waste line, or ongoing algae (low FC). Old/channeled sand or clogged cartridges can also recirculate fines.

Check FC • Media condition

Set Expectations — trade-offs & multiple vacs

Warning: Floc does not always clear a pool in one pass. It’s common to need 2+ vacuum sessions as more fines settle overnight. The trade-off is water loss + cleaning time vs. a pool that stays persistently cloudy.

Clarity often needs 1–2 vacs

Severe Algae • 2+ Weeks Solid Green

Green-to-Clean Service — Multi-Visit Recovery Plan

For pools that have been solid green for two weeks or more, a single visit won’t cut it. Our Green-to-Clean program combines targeted chemistry, aggressive brushing, filter rehab, and staged debris removal over multiple visits to restore safe, usable water. The checkpoint is seeing the floor of the deep end, followed by a Power Vac to remove remaining sludge before normal swimming resumes.

On-Site Assessment — volume, gear & safety

Confirm pool gallons, equipment condition, and discharge options. Document severity and set expectations for number of visits.

Clear recovery roadmap

Kill Phase — oxidize & sanitize

Measured shock/oxidizer and sanitizer boosts to break chloramines and kill active algae. Dosing based on pool volume and demand.

Precise, data-driven dosing

Brush & Agitate — detach growth

Walls, slopes, steps and coves are brushed thoroughly each visit so dead algae releases and can be filtered or vacuumed out.

Full-surface coverage

Filter Rehab — keep flow high

Backwash/rinse cycles (sand/DE) or clean/soak (cartridge) to stop instant re-clogging and restore circulation efficiency.

Pressure-based servicing

Clarifier / Floc — only when it helps

Clarifier for fines through the filter, or floc with vac-to-waste when a waste line is available. Used selectively to save time.

Right tool for the job

Visit Cadence — staged recovery

Typical severe cases take 2–5 visits depending on size, filter type, and weather. We aim for measurable clarity gains each visit.

Milestone-driven plan

Clarity Checkpoint — see the deep end

Once the floor of the deep end is visible, we move to debris extraction. This ensures Power Vac is efficient and complete.

Visibility = go/no-go

Power Vac — final sludge removal

Vacuum-to-waste as needed to remove settled fines and organics. This is the last step before returning to normal maintenance.

Waste line preferred

Balance & Stabilize — hold the line

Dial in pH, alkalinity, and CYA so sanitizer holds. Establish a clean-filter PSI baseline and recommended run-time.

Lasting clarity

Owner Checklist — between visits

Run pump 24/7, empty baskets, keep cover off, and avoid copper-based quick fixes. We text photo updates and next steps after each visit.

Simple, clear instructions

Not Sure Which Service To Choose?

Chemical Visit vs. Filter Cleaning vs. Floc vs. Green-to-Clean

Four different services — four different use-cases. Use the quick snapshots and mobile-friendly chart below to match your situation, budget, and timeline. When in doubt, text us a photo and we’ll point you to the right option.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Power Vac Service — Top 15 FAQs

Everything homeowners ask about professional power vacuuming, debris removal, and deep pool cleaning.

What is a power vac service for pools?

Power vac is a deep cleaning process using professional equipment that vacuums debris, leaves, and dirt directly out of the pool and bypasses the filter for maximum efficiency.

When should I schedule a power vac for my pool?

After heavy storms, at the start of the season, after closing issues, or anytime large amounts of debris settle on the pool floor.

How is power vacuuming different from regular pool cleaning?

Regular cleaning uses the pool’s filter system.

Power vac bypasses the filter and removes debris directly to waste, preventing clogs and faster results.

Does power vac service help with algae cleanup?

Yes. Power vac removes large debris and dead algae from the pool floor so chemicals can work more effectively.

Will a power vac prevent my filter from clogging?

Absolutely. Since debris bypasses the filter, your filtration system is protected and runs more efficiently afterward.

How long does a power vac service take?

Most power vacs take 45–90 minutes depending on pool size, debris level, and water clarity.

Can power vac service clear cloudy water?

Yes. By removing the heavy debris causing cloudiness, it allows water to balance faster and clears up within days with proper chemicals.

Do you recommend power vac after pool opening?

Yes. Opening often stirs up debris and leaves that settle on the bottom. Power vac ensures a fresh, clear start to the season.

Is power vac safe for all pool types?

Yes — vinyl liner, gunite, fiberglass, and above ground pools can all benefit.

We use equipment and techniques matched to your pool surface to prevent damage.

How often should I get a power vac done?

Most homeowners schedule once or twice per season, but heavy debris or algae issues may require additional visits.

Can I DIY a power vac myself?

Standard vacuums can’t match commercial-grade results. Hiring a professional ensures faster cleaning and prevents equipment strain.

Will power vac service lower my pool water level?

Yes, some water is discharged with debris. We’ll monitor levels and advise if refilling is needed after service.

Can power vac service remove sand or fine particles?

Yes, it clears sand, dirt, and fine debris that standard vacuums miss.

This restores pool clarity and protects circulation equipment.

How much does professional power vac service cost?

Pricing depends on pool size and debris level, but typical service ranges $150–$300.

How do I schedule a power vac with Empire Pools?
