Show Notes
In this episode, I break down one of the most common questions pool pros face on the route: When should you vacuum a pool — and when is a skim or partial vacuum enough? I’ll share how to quickly assess debris levels, save time by choosing the right cleaning method, and keep pools sparkling without overworking your filter or wasting energy. From light leaf skimming to tackling post-storm disasters, I’ll give you practical strategies to make your cleaning routine more efficient and effective.
