Why Pool Water Testing Matters (And Why We Offer It Free)
Keeping your pool clean doesn’t have to be complicated. Regular water testing is one of the simplest ways to protect your pool, your family, and your investment.
At Central West Pool & Spa Shop, we offer free professional water testing to make pool care easy and stress-free. Here’s why it matters.
Why Test Your Pool Water?
Even if your pool looks clear, the chemistry can change quickly due to weather, swimmers, leaves, and sunscreen. Testing every 2–4 weeks helps prevent:
cloudy water and algae
equipment damage
skin and eye irritation
wasted chemicals
Regular testing keeps your pool balanced, safe, and easy to maintain.
How Free Testing Helps You
Accurate testing saves money by preventing:
costly algae treatments
damage to pumps, heaters, and surfaces
overuse of chemicals
staining, scaling, and corrosion
A small water sample can save you a big bill down the track.
What Happens When You Bring a Sample?
It’s quick and easy:
Bring in a water sample.
If you’re in a rush, you can drop it off and we’ll email you the results.
If you have a couple of minutes, stick around and we’ll go through the results with you, provide a print-out, and help you grab what you need while you’re in store.
You’ll also get a simple, personalised treatment plan for your pool.
