POWER VAC POOL SERVICE • ,
Power Vac Pool Service in ,
When your pool is green, cloudy, or loaded with debris, Empire Pools’ Power Vac service gives you a fast reset.
In , that usually means heavy leaf load after wind and rain, fine silt that settles into corners,
and “dead spots” that keep re-clouding even after you shock — especially after
, , and .
We’re in and out of neighborhoods near , , and ,
so we know what pools here look like after storm cycles and heat spikes. We start with a quick safety and circulation check (water level, skimmers,
pump prime, filter pressure, and return flow), then choose the right cleanup method: vac-to-waste when debris and algae need to be physically removed
from the system, or vac through the filter when your setup can handle it without choking off flow. From there we brush walls, steps, and trouble areas
to break loose film, then run slow, controlled vacuum lanes to pull what’s on the floor without stirring the whole pool back up. You’ll get clear, practical
next steps (run-time, backwash/clean timing, and chemical guidance) so the pool continues improving over the next 24–72 hours instead of bouncing back to cloudy again.
What to Expect
Built for Heavy Cleanups in
Power Vac is designed for pools that are beyond a normal cleaning — thick leaves on the floor, algae blooms
after a late opening, pump or filter issues that left the water cloudy, or heavy debris after storms. We start by
checking circulation, equipment, and water level so we can safely vacuum to waste or through the filter depending
on your setup. Our techs brush and manually vacuum the floor and trouble spots, purge debris, and set up circulation
so filtration and chemicals can do their job after we leave. You’ll get clear notes on follow-up steps and whether
a second visit is recommended based on how your pool responds over the next 24–72 hours.
What’s Included
- Visual inspection of pool, equipment pad, and water level before we start.
- Manual floor and wall brushing to break up algae and debris.
- Power vacuuming to waste or through the filter (based on plumbing and condition).
- Leaf and debris removal from floor, corners, and common dead spots.
- Filter pressure check and basic backwash/rinse to restore flow where possible.
- Shock and chemical guidance based on pool volume and current readings.
- Circulation pattern review (returns aimed correctly, skimmers pulling well).
- Texted notes on what we did, what we recommend next, and what to watch for.
- Note: Power Vac focuses on cleanup, not equipment repair — pump, filter, or plumbing fixes are quoted separately if needed.
- Note: Severe “swamp” pools may require multiple visits — we’ll explain options and expected timelines clearly on site.

Power Vac — FAQs
Is a Power Vac the right service if my pool is cloudy but not fully green?
Yes, if the cloudiness is coming from silt, dead algae, or debris sitting on the floor. A Power Vac removes the stuff that filtration struggles to “catch up with,” then we give you a simple 24–72 hour run-time and backwash/clean plan to finish clearing.
Do you always vacuum to waste?
Not always. We vacuum to waste when algae/debris needs to be physically removed and your plumbing supports it. If waste isn’t practical (or water level concerns are high), we vacuum through the filter while carefully managing pressure and flow.
Will I need more than one Power Vac visit in East Meadow?
Sometimes. If the pool is a heavy “swamp,” has thick debris layers, or the filter is overwhelmed, it can take 2–3 visits. We’ll tell you straight on site what condition level you’re in and what timeline is realistic.
What should I do the day of service?
Make sure we have gate access, the equipment pad is reachable, and pets are secured. If you can, get the water level to mid-skimmer so we can vacuum efficiently without risking the pump losing prime.
Why does my pool look better, then turn cloudy again?
That usually means debris or dead algae is still settling, or the filter is loading up fast. During cleanups, you often need a tighter backwash/clean schedule and longer run-time for 24–72 hours. We’ll give you the exact steps based on what we see.
