“When I started, they just dropped me in to taking care of the pool, they said ‘take care of it’, and I didn’t know anything.”

We hear this at quite a few hotels.  Given that what we might actually hear is just a fraction of reality, we can extrapolate that this is a situation that is probably very widespread.  We hear it too in so many other public and commercial aquatics facilities.  The theme?  The management attitude that “It’s just a pool.”

Mismanaged facilities can end up costing quite a lot.  Besides the liability potential, there will be increased operating and maintenance expenses as well.  We’ve seen it when we’re called to supply a heater to replace one that’s been corroded out.  Heaters shouldn’t corrode.  If they do, you’re doing something wrong.

Noxious odors?  Customer complaints of burning eyes?  Cloudy water?  Have a broken drain cover?  Manage them or suffer from increased costs and more liability.  (Speaking of Drain Covers – you know they have a limited life, right?  Usually 5 years, though some drain covers are rated for 7 years life.  And, just because a new cover “fits” doesn’t mean it’s legal for use on your drain.) Details, details, details.

There are other costs too – public relations costs.  Customer complaints, bad reviews on travel sites, social media comments, “1-stars”, and other public feedback can drive away business.  “Not knowing” will cost your business.

Well – we heard it again from a facility – and we hear it all the time: “For 9 years since I got here, it wasn’t a problem.  Now all of a sudden it is.”

While the standards for pool care haven’t changed much, the Pennsylvania Department of Health has stepped up enforcement of aquatic facility regulations.  They have discovered many situations where operators have been caring for their facilities incorrectly for a long time.  In many cases, this was because of improper or inadequate training and “rule of thumb” practices that were incorrect.  Sometimes, pool suppliers and dealers were the sources of bad information, too. 

We hear many situations where “it was never a problem and now it is.”  Well, it was a problem; it’s just the facility was never caught – because it was never adequately inspected.  It’s proof that “experience” alone is not a measure of correct performance.

Lehmann Pools & Spas invests heavily in training to ensure we have the latest in regulatory and technical knowledge.  In fact, we are certified facility operator instructors.  When you choose Lehmann Pools & Spas for service, you can be assured we will have the latest knowledge and training to ensure you will be fully in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Improper operation of facilities can result in significant liability for their owners.  We’ll help you manage your risk and assure you that you will operate a safe and compliant facility.  And, since we’re a year-round operation, so you can call us anytime for assistance with critical issues.

If you know anything about Lehmann Pools & Spas, you know that we will relentlessly pursue solutions to your issues.

  • Whether commercial or residential, you know we have a vast selection of parts.
  • You know that if we don’t have it, we’ll find it – not just A part, but the RIGHT part.
  • You know that we will reach out to wherever we need to get the most amount of information to be able to troubleshoot correctly.
  • And, when it comes to installation and testing, we’ll make sure we’ve figured out the RIGHT way, not just A way.

That led to this – helping a Senior Community – Assisted Living facility acquire and install a replacement therapy bath.

  • We worked hard to troubleshoot and find parts for an old existing unit.
  • We found the manufacturer (even though a series of mergers had all but buried the product line)
  • We found the right parts
  • We talked to support reps and figured out the correct way to troubleshoot and ultimately install new parts
  • Then, when it came time to replace it – well – the story got more interesting.

And, so here we are today. A new, replacement tub from a different manufacturer.  A tub with a support system (us) should they need service.  And, a quality product from one of the largest, most reputable companies in the continuing-care market.

You’ll hear more!  But for now enjoy the picture.  And, know that we are relentless!
