Weekly pool maintenance — Akumal

Beachfront condos, rental villas and homes of full-time foreign residents. $1,500 MXN/month.

A bay famous for its sea turtles and reef, with a core of beachfront condos, a village on the inland side of the highway and a foreign community established for decades.

The water in Akumal

Akumal is right on the beach and the salt attacks everything metallic in the equipment: hardware, filter lids, grilles and above all the pump motor. In Akumal we see motors corrode in 2 or 3 years where inland they last 8. Protecting the equipment here is worth more than optimizing the chemistry.

What fails here, and why

Corrosion damage is what actually costs an Akumal owner money, and it's almost never in the maintenance contract. We include equipment inspection and protection: rinsing the motor, a sacrificial anode where applicable, and early warning when a part starts pitting. It's far cheaper than replacing a pump.

Who we serve in Akumal

Our clients in Akumal are mostly the expat community, condo HOAs and vacation rental property managers, with beachfront condos, rental villas and homes of full-time foreign residents. Our technician arrives on the fixed day you agree on, with equipment and chemicals included, and leaves a photo report with readings after every visit.

  • Salt-air corrosion on motor, hardware and electrical connections

Frequently asked questions

Questions from our clients in Akumal.

Why does my pump break down so often in Akumal?

Salt air. Being metres from the sea means salt-laden air 24 hours a day, and that corrodes the motor, the hardware and the electrical connections far faster than in town. It's mitigated with an equipment room that's ventilated but shielded from the sea breeze, periodic rinsing of the motor's exterior and sealed connections. We include it in the service.

Do you service HOA condos in Akumal?

Yes. With HOAs we work on an annual contract, with a readings log, a monthly report for the assembly and an anticipated equipment replacement budget. For condos with several pools we quote on total volume and service them all on the same day.

Can a pool that's already green be recovered?

Yes. We do a deep clean with shock treatment and continuous filtering until it's crystal clear, usually in 2 to 4 days depending on its condition.
