" I am paid more than 80k to redo my pool house located in Mclean, VA. The pool never worked. Always green. Every time you call, they will send one cleaning crew for 180$, but the answer from them was that the pool will be better after a few days. After a few days, the pool is green, and you call again, and they will say our pool needs multiple cleanings, and they will do various cleanings and send various invoices. When cleaning, they say the pool will improve in a few days. After a few days, if you call to ask why the pool is green, they will say it's one more service. This pool was reconstructed, and the same company did the plumbing and machines. Please be careful when hiring this company complete rip-off. After ripping off, they will say customers do not know anything about the pool. This is the value they will give to the customer who paid around 80k "

"I had a noisy pool pump and motor failing and was concerned it would be a real issue going out when I was at work during the week. I contacted Finn's late on a Saturday afternoon leaving a message with the answering service. Sean returned my call within hours that day. I explained the problem and he told me he could stop by early next week. On early Monday morning Sean was at the house assessing the situation. I wanted the pump, motor, and filters system to be working like new. We made a fair cost projection and he said it may be a couple of days. On Tuesday morning the next day Finn's had crews at the house with all the new equipment and performed the work within 2 hours. I now have a properly working system that is quiet. Finn's has the professional knowledge and was not trying to over sell me on anything. Finn's just did what's right. I am totally impressed with the response and installation. I would recommend and use Finn's again in the future."

"If I could give this company a 6 out of 5 stars I would! They did a fantastic job overhauling my mother's deck, back patio, fencing, and front portico. All of the work was absolutely essential for safety and structural reasons, and I'm so glad I chose OSSA to do the work. My mother has Alzheimer's, which presented additional issues, but the entire crew was incredibly kind, respectful, and understanding of the unique challenges they faced. They were responsive and kept me aware of everything regarding the job along the way. My mother is so pleased, and I have the peace of mind that all of her outdoor space is safe, beautiful, and accessible. I will be hiring OSSA to do some work in my own home, as I look to make necessary improvements in the future. I've told everyone I know how how wonderful they are. 6 out of 5 stars!"

A well-maintained pool filter lasts anywhere from one to 10 years, depending on the type. Watch for inconsistent PSI readings, leaks, or wild chemical swings—these red flags tell you the media is spent. Most cartridge models clock in at two to three years, while a DE unit can push the full decade. Staying on top of maintenance avoids surprise repairs and keeps water sparkling.
Run the pump eight to 10 hours a day to give the water a full turnover and keep chemicals balanced. That schedule stays ahead of debris, eases the load on the filter, and helps the equipment last longer.
On scorching summer days or after a big pool party, tack on an extra hour or two, but skip nonstop 24-hour cycles that waste energy.
Skip routine filter changes, and you invite costly repairs. A clogged filter overworks the pump, leading to burnout or leaks. You’ll also see cloudy water, algae blooms, and roller-coaster chemical readings.
The CDC warns that poorly maintained pools can irritate skin and eyes, so stay on schedule with filter swaps to keep swimmers—and equipment—safe. Left untouched, debris can cement inside the housing, pushing replacement costs even higher than a simple filter swap.
