👋 MEET THE POOL TECH: LIAM! 😂

New to the team, learning fast and already making a splash (sometimes with the facial expressions to match). 🤪

Liam’s a hard worker who’s picking things up quickly and getting stuck into all things pool-related. We’re pretty sure the funny faces are just a bonus skill! 🤣💦

Give Liam a wave next time you see him out and about!

FNQ wet season is on its way, and your pool might be in for a bit of a beating! ⛈️

Big downpours can dilute your pool water, affect chemical levels and wash unwanted debris into the mix.

Think your pool is fine after a storm? It might be time for a little reality check. 👀

Head to the comments to bust this myth!

FNQ sunshine is great for pool days. Not so great for unprotected chlorine. ☀️

Pool stabiliser helps protect chlorine from being broken down by UV rays, helping it last longer in the water.

But here’s the catch: too little can leave your chlorine working overtime, while too much can affect how effectively chlorine sanitises your pool.

It’s all about getting the balance right.

Not sure where your stabiliser levels are sitting? Bring a water sample into our Cairns shop for FREE pool water testing. 💧

A little pool knowledge now can save a whole lot of summer headaches later. 😉

A little behind the scenes in our workshop! 🔧💦

From equipment repairs and troubleshooting to testing everything before it heads back out the door, there’s plenty happening behind the scenes.

Every piece of equipment gets the attention it needs to help keep things running as they should. 👀

Have some pool equipment not working the way it should, bring it in for us to take a look.

BUFFER OR ACID? 🤔

They’re both pool-care essentials, but they don’t do the same job!

💧 Buffer generally helps raise total alkalinity.
💧 Acid is commonly used to lower pH.

The trick is knowing what your pool actually needs before reaching for a bottle.

Not sure? Bring a water sample into our shop for FREE pool water testing, and we’ll help you work out the next step.

No guessing games needed. 😉

Your pump shouldn’t sound like it’s auditioning for a heavy metal band. 🔊😂

And it definitely shouldn’t be leaving puddles where they don’t belong!

Unusual noises, leaks, air bubbles and changes in pressure or water flow can all be signs that something needs attention.

A quick check now could help you catch a problem before it turns into a bigger repair.

Something not sounding or looking right? Give the Kirratech team a call.

pH LEVELS… THEY MATTER MORE THAN YOU MIGHT THINK!

Your pool water can look crystal clear and still be out of balance.

pH plays an important role in how effectively chlorine works and how comfortable your pool is to swim in.

As swimming season picks up, don’t leave your water chemistry to guesswork!

Bring a water sample into the Kirratech shop for FREE pool water testing. No appointment needed. 😉

A pool of knowledge… Experience the difference.

The days are getting warmer, the pool is looking more inviting and those afternoon swims are calling! ☀️💦

But more sunshine and more swimmers can mean more work for your pool.

☑️ Keep an eye on your water balance.
☑️ Make sure your filtration is doing its job.
☑️ Check that your equipment is running as it should.

A little attention now can help avoid bigger pool dramas later.
