Why pool filter installation by a professional is worth it

Considering a new pool filtration system? Understanding the benefits of hiring a professional can help you make a smarter, more informed decision.

Benefits of a professional pool filter installation

• Improved pool water quality

Informed by potentially years of invaluable experience and expertise, industry professionals can provide tailored guidance for each individual pool filtration project. By considering your budget as well as the size, usage, and purpose of your pool, a professional can recommend the most effective solution.

This includes offering in-depth guidance with regards to selecting the most suitable pool filter for your facility. From sand and AFM glass to Zeolite and cartridge filters, they can outline both the pros and cons of each pool filter media, pointing you towards the most effective options for keeping the pool water clean and clear.

• Greater customisation and integration

Reaching out to an expert pool filter installer can also allow for a higher level of customisation and provide opportunities for more complex pool filter installation and system integrations.

For example, commercial premises, such as hotels, are likely to benefit from Building Management System (BMS) integration with a pool filter. This creates a singular master control system whereby pool operations can be automated and optimised.

This allows for enhanced control and greater efficiency across key areas like water quality and system maintenance, reducing the need for downtime as well as costly and time-consuming manual labour.

• Comprehensive pool services

One of the biggest benefits of hiring a professional for your pool filter installation is their ability to provide future support and advice. As the installer, they’ll have an intimate knowledge of your pool filtration system, helping you to navigate any issues that might arise.

At Chemsol, for example, we’re specialists in the design, installation, upgrade, and even maintenance of both pools and plant rooms. This means we can provide everything from professional pool filter installation to ongoing pool filter maintenance plans for domestic and commercial facilities alike.

• Long-term cost savings

With an experienced team carrying out your commercial or domestic pool filter installation to the best of their professional ability, the likelihood of leaks and improper sizing alongside future repairs and replacements is also greatly reduced, saving you money in the long run.

Plus, a professional can suggest energy-efficient pool filter solutions which require less electricity, water, and chemicals to operate. The result? Welcomed long-term savings across all these areas which can add up to a significant sum over the years.

• Pool Water Treatment Advisory Group (PWTAG) compliance

The PWTAG has published expert guidance on pool water quality and treatment. Their Code of Practice and standards are recognised by the HSE as a key resource for swimming pool operators and are considered the benchmark for safe and effective pool management.

Although not legally required, PWTAG-compliant pool filter installations are widely regarded as best practice, helping ensure safer, healthier, and more reliable pool environments.

• Maintaining warranties

Professional pool filter installation is a common requirement for maintaining warranty coverage from the pool manufacturer. With warranties ranging from one to 30 years, voiding the warranty by doing your own installation could be a costly mistake, especially for more expensive, higher-end swimming pool and spa facilities.

Don’t run the risk – speak to an expert pool filter installer like Chemsol Group instead to receive a comprehensive quotation.
