A shock treatment is a controlled super-dose of sanitizer that breaks down algae, bacteria, and the built-up gunk chlorine normally can’t burn through. The store sells the bags; what they can’t sell is the dose — which depends on your water’s actual demand, not the label. We test first, then shock right, once. Call (407) 555-0144.
Shock when the water tells you to: a dull or greenish tint, a strong chlorine odor (which counterintuitively means not enough free chlorine), cloudiness after a crowded weekend, or after heavy rain washes debris and runoff in. It’s also the right move after finding a dead animal in the pool or any contamination event. If shocks keep failing — water clears then turns again — the real problem is usually stabilizer lockup or a filter issue, and we check for both before dosing.
We test the water fully first — free and combined chlorine, pH, and stabilizer — because shock dosed into bad pH is money poured into the deep end. Then we calculate breakpoint dosage for your actual water volume and demand, apply it, and set the pump and filter to run it through properly. We follow up on the readings to confirm the water reached and held breakpoint, and rebalance once it settles. You get the numbers before and after.
Cost depends on pool size and chlorine demand — a maintenance shock is inexpensive; water fighting a heavy algae load takes more product and a return visit. We quote free before treating, usually from a photo and your recent history. If shock isn’t what your water needs, we’ll say so and quote the right fix instead.
Anyone can throw bags in a pool; knowing the breakpoint math and what the readings mean afterward is the actual service. Our certified techs do it daily on routes across Milton Creek. Locally owned, 20+ years in the trade, FL #C-40218, insured, 5.0 on Google.
