Swimming Pool Cleaning in Shaana, Jeddah
Shaana is a small residential quarter in east Jeddah near Asfan, one of a cluster of simple neighbouring quarters close to Wadi Al Ghawla and the University of Jeddah road. The air here is drier and the dust is coarser and paler than on the coast, settling overnight on every surface, so pools in Shaana collect desert particles that behave differently from coastal salt.

- Price agreed before we start

What changes about swimming pool cleaning in Shaana
Desert dust here is denser and paler than coastal dust, and sediment on the pool floor leaves a grey film in basins instead of salt salt from the sea. For the method itself, see what swimming pool cleaning involves.
-
The first reason
Desert dust carries heavy minerals, not sea salt particles
Shaana sits near open ground, so dust carries heavy minerals and large particles unlike fine sea salt. Water clouds quickly and leaves strange deposits on walls that plain water alone cannot remove.
-
The second reason
Dry air reduces salt settlement but increases airborne dust fall
Dry air means salt does not settle fast, but airborne dust falls into the pool more quickly. The pool needs primary dust removal rather than salt treatment.
-
The third reason
Roof tank water carries sediment from storage tanks on high ground
At higher elevation far from the sea, roof tanks collect dust and sand. Added water from these tanks brings sediment that leaves a grey film in the pool and clogs filters rapidly.
What swimming pool cleaning covers in Shaana
Shaana lies far from the sea and close to open ground and hills beyond the ring roads, where air is dry and dust settles on all flat surfaces quickly.
-
Water chemistry tested first
Shaana is near desert ground, so water carries heavy minerals and dust; testing shows rapid shifts in pH and alkalinity.
-
Brushing walls and waterline
Walls collect a grey mineral film, not green algae. Brushing focuses on removing the mineral layer.
-
Vacuuming the pool floor
The pool floor collects heavy sediment from dust and minerals; vacuuming needs force and may require multiple passes.
-
Skimmer and baskets cleaned
Skimmers and baskets fill with thick grey dust quickly, so we empty them each visit and verify inlets are not blocked.
-
Filter backwash
The filter collects heavy deposits from roof tank water; backwashing needs attention and may be repeated within one visit.
-
Chemical balance reset
Chemical balance here needs frequent testing because heavy minerals shift pH faster than in coastal zones.
Not included
- Repairing pumps, filters or pool plumbing
- Fixing cracks, leaks or replacing tile
- Draining and acid-washing an empty pool, that is a separate service
- Removing permanent staining from metals or long-neglected plaster
How a pool is actually cleaned
-
1
Test before we add anything
pH, sanitiser and hardness are read at the start.
-
2
Skim and net first
Floating leaves and debris come off before we brush.
-
3
Brush walls, steps and waterline
Algae and the oily waterline film cling to the surfaces.
-
4
Vacuum the floor
Silt settles in the deep end and the corners the return jets never reach.
-
5
Clean the filter and baskets
The skimmer and pump baskets are cleared and the filter checked or backwashed.
-
6
Balance, dose, and walk it with you
With the water clean, we balance and dose, then walk the pool with you before leaving.
Landmarks of Shaana
Shaana is reached via Wadi Al Ghawla and the University of Jeddah Road, which define how our team accesses the pool. We agree on the route beforehand because neighbourhood lanes are narrow and buildings stand close.

Why us for this service in particular
A full team arrives together
The company runs a large crew, and we send a team rather than one person.
Our equipment, not rented
Pumps, vacuum heads and the test kit come with the team.
We say no when it's no
If the pump or the plumbing is the real problem, we tell you.
From our work
Photographs from real jobs carried out by the crew.
The job isn't closed until you approve it
The commitment is simple enough to actually keep: we don't leave until you've seen the result and had your say on it.
What is different about East Jeddah
East Jeddah lies furthest from the sea and closest to the open ground and hills beyond the ring roads, so the air is drier and the dust is coarser and paler than on the coast. It comes in under doors and settles on every flat surface overnight, making sofas, mattresses and curtains the heaviest part of the routine. Floors are mostly ceramic tile in the apartment districts and marble in the villa areas, both scratched by grit that is mopped rather than swept. Roof tank water leaves a grey film of sediment in baths and basins.
Questions about swimming pool cleaning in Shaana
Why does the pool cloud with this grey dust so quickly?
Shaana is far from the sea and close to open ground, and dust here carries heavy minerals. Water added from roof tanks brings sediment, so the pool needs regular cleaning cycles.
The water sometimes tastes gritty. Can this be fixed?
Grit taste comes from the roof tank. We test the water and advise you to clean the tank first, then we rebalance the pool afterwards.
Is this pool easier to maintain than a coastal one?
No, just different. The coast has salt and humidity, and Shaana has heavy minerals and desert dust. Both need testing and continuous monitoring.
How often should a Shaana pool be serviced each year?
Every two to three weeks in summer and every four weeks in winter. Desert dust means regular scheduled cleaning cycles.
Should we treat water added from the roof tank before it enters the pool?
Yes, before roof tank water goes in we test it and filter it if needed. Heavy sediment may require separate treatment.
The filter clogs very fast. Why does this happen?
Heavy dust and minerals from the tank clog the filter quickly. We backwash more than once and advise you to clean the roof tank regularly.
Do you repair pumps or filters?
No. We clean and balance the water and clear the baskets and filter, but repairing pumps, motors or plumbing is a separate trade. If we find a mechanical fault, we tell you what it is so you can get it fixed.
Do you drain the pool to clean it?
Not for a normal clean. Vacuuming, brushing and balancing are all done with the pool full. Draining and acid-washing is only for specific cases like heavy staining or a full reset, and that is a separate service we'd discuss first.
How much does swimming pool cleaning in Shaana cost?
It is set after the inspection, because it follows the size of the job, the materials involved and their condition. Send photos on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Shaana.
