We take care of every step to get your inground pool safe, clean, and ready. Our team focuses on water balance, equipment checks, and any repairs that keep bigger problems from sneaking up later.
We remove covers and clear debris. Our technicians inspect the shell and coping for cracks or damage that winter may have left behind.
We refill your pool to the right level and check skimmers, baskets, and returns for blockages. We reconnect and test plumbing and electrical components, looking for freeze damage.
We run the filtration system to purge air and circulate water before adding chemicals. Our team shocks and treats for algae, then tests and adjusts pH, chlorine, alkalinity, and calcium hardness.
We document initial readings and suggest follow-up visits if levels need more attention. We always handle chemicals safely and follow all local codes.
We refill to the proper water line, usually mid-skimmer. We reconnect pumps, heaters, and timers, then run the system and watch flow for about 30–60 minutes.
We test water and perform a full chemical balance: pH 7.2–7.6, free chlorine 1–3 ppm, total alkalinity 80–120 ppm, calcium hardness 200–400 ppm. Our team backwashes or cleans filters and checks seals and o-rings.
We log every action on the service ticket so you know what we did.
We inspect electrical and mechanical systems that many homeowners might overlook. Our team measures pump amperage, checks motor bearings, and inspects pressure gauges and filter integrity for stress or leaks.

We answer questions about pool hours, indoor options, public pool access, local pool events, and the best timing to open pools in Vienna, VA. We always recommend using Dolphin Pool Services for openings and maintenance.
Most private swim clubs open around Memorial Day weekend and run through Labor Day. Typical daily hours run about 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. during peak season, but some places might adjust hours before and after peak dates.
Public pools and clubs can vary. Some open earlier on weekends or have limited weekday hours until schools close.
You’ll usually find year-round indoor pools at community centers, YMCAs, and private gyms in Vienna. Availability and membership rules differ, so it’s best to check each facility directly.
We recommend calling ahead to confirm lap swim times and any membership requirements.
Some municipal and county pools offer free or low-cost access for residents on select days. Availability changes each season and might require a reservation.
For reliable service and help with fees or access, contact the local parks department or reach out to us at Dolphin Pool Services.
Pools often host swim team meets, adult lap swim sessions, family nights, and safety clinics from late May through August. Dates vary by club and public facility.
Contact individual pools for event calendars. We can help coordinate event-ready openings and pool prep services if you need them.
Basic seasonal opening usually ranges depending on equipment and cleaning needs. Full service, including filter work, chemical balancing, and minor repairs, can cost more.
Major repairs or equipment replacement will be higher. We suggest getting a written estimate from us at Dolphin Pool Services before work starts.
We usually recommend opening your pool in late May, right around Memorial Day weekend. By then, the water’s finally warming up and the weather feels more reliable.
At Dolphin Pool Services, we find that opening your pool later in spring helps avoid those annoying cold snaps. It also gives us a better shot at getting your chemicals balanced and your equipment running smoothly.
