Routine service

Routine Pool and Spa Service Work

Routine cleaning and water care are different from technical fault diagnosis and regulated trade work.

Usually routine service

  • Water testing
  • Chemical balancing
  • Cleaning and vacuuming
  • Filter cleaning or cartridge replacement
  • Basic visual checks and maintenance reports

Not routine service

  • RCD or safety switch diagnosis
  • Fixed electrical work
  • Gas heater servicing
  • Refrigerant circuit work
  • Regulated plumbing, drainage or gas pipework

Why cleaning-only companies are excluded

Cleaning-only work is often not tied to an official trade register, which makes technical qualification verification unreliable. Many cleaning-only businesses do not hold electrical, gasfitting, refrigerant or regulated plumbing authority because those licences are not needed for cleaning. SpaTechs & PoolTechs therefore lists technical providers only.
