Are you tired of paying premium prices for pool service that sometimes feels inconsistent or inadequate? You're not alone. Many homeowners are discovering that with the right support system, they can take control of their pool maintenance and save hundreds—even thousands—of dollars annually.
This isn't about learning to become a pool expert overnight. It's about partnering with a company that empowers you with knowledge, delivers the right products to your door, and provides expert backup when you need it—all at a fraction of the cost of traditional pool service.
The High Cost of Traditional Pool Service
The average pool service company charges between $125-$200 monthly for basic maintenance. This typically includes:
- Weekly visits to test water and add chemicals
- Skimming and vacuuming
- Basic equipment checks
- Filter cleanings as needed
For this service, most homeowners pay $1,500-$2,400 annually—and that's before any repairs, parts, or extra chemical treatments.
What many pool owners don't realize is that much of what they're paying for involves simple tasks that can be easily learned, while the more complex aspects can be supported through a more cost-effective membership model.

The Biggest Myths About DIY Pool Maintenance
Many homeowners avoid taking care of their own pools because of common misconceptions:
Myth #1: "Pool chemistry is too complicated for homeowners to manage."
Reality: While pool chemistry does involve some science, modern testing systems and product formulations have simplified the process dramatically. With basic guidance and the right products, most homeowners can maintain proper water balance with minimal effort.
Myth #2: "I'll end up spending more on chemicals doing it myself."
Reality: Most service companies mark up chemicals by 100-200% over wholesale prices. Even with retail pricing, you'll typically save money, and with a membership program like Easy Pool Shop's Platinum Club, you access wholesale pricing that amplifies your savings.
Myth #3: "I don't have time for pool maintenance."
Reality: Most DIY pool maintenance takes only 20-30 minutes per week once you have a system in place. The time spent driving to and from the pool store often exceeds the actual maintenance time. With delivery services, even this trip is eliminated.
Myth #4: "I won't know what to do if something goes wrong."
Reality: With membership programs like Easy Pool Shop's Platinum Club, you gain access to expert advice whenever issues arise. Many problems can be diagnosed and solved through a simple phone consultation or water analysis.
Myth #5: "Professional pool services have access to better chemicals."
Reality: The same professional-grade chemicals used by service companies are available to homeowners through the right channels. Easy Pool Shop provides the identical commercial-quality products used by professionals.
