Christmas Time Is Pool Time

The holiday season in Australia is inseparable with warm weather, especially in North Queensland – and where better to beat the heat and cool down during Christmas than the pool?

But pools can be temperamental things that (most pool owners would know) are far from simple. You might be confused why your pool is all of a sudden the colour of a Christmas tree – or it might even be sprouting one!

Or why it burns your eyes when you take a dip, your filter is clogged, or perhaps you want it to be more energy efficient, or is pH level giving you trouble? – it can all be very overwhelming.

At Proserpine local business Think Water Whitsunday, owner Noel Gardner is urging locals to make sure their pools are in prime fighting condition well before boxing day arrives.

“About two weeks before Christmas is the time of year when it’s so busy that people might be just getting around to checking their pools ahead of the family coming over,” Noel said.

“That’s when they might be realising there’s a problem – whether it be salination, their pumps, or that their pool cleaner’s broken – that’s where we come in.”

If it’s repairs you need, they have it covered with technicians, if it’s a new pump that’ll do the trick, they’ve got those in spades. Noel said that Think Water are “here to get you out of trouble.”

“The pool section of the store has grown in the past year – it’s now a major part of what we do here,” Noel said.

“We have proper, approved water treatment testing gear, 50 per cent off deals on generic pumps until they’re sold out, chlorinators, cleaners. Our pool area is still growing, and our knowledge is growing too.”

Think Water are “not a shop that will get it in for you, because we have it already” – the latest testing gear, the expertise and the advice.

“All the things you could ever need are here in Proserpine,” Noel said.
