Why Owner-Operated Wins

“Green” and “eco-friendly” are great marketing buzzwords, but pool chemistry is governed by science, not branding. Chlorine is chlorine whether it comes from a company with “green” in the name or not. The key to environmentally responsible pool care is using the RIGHT amount of chemicals — not too much, not too little.

At Jerico’s Pools, our CPO certification means we’re trained to use chemicals efficiently and responsibly. We test water chemistry at every visit and add precisely what’s needed. No overchemicaling, no waste. That’s more “green” than any marketing label.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is eco-friendly pool service actually different?

Most pool "eco" claims are marketing. The chemistry required to sanitize a pool safely is the same regardless of branding. What actually matters is using the correct amounts of chemicals — which a CPO-certified technician is trained to do precisely.

Do you use environmentally responsible practices?

Yes. CPO certification includes training on efficient chemical use, water conservation, and proper waste disposal. We test water chemistry at every visit and add only what’s needed — reducing chemical waste and keeping your pool safe.

How do your prices compare to eco pool services?

Our Standard plan at $200/month is competitive with or below most "eco" pool services, and includes ALL chemicals. Eco-branded services often charge a premium for marketing that doesn’t translate to meaningfully different pool care.

The Real Differences Between Jerico's Pools and Clean Green Pools

Clean Green Pools serves the DFW area. The challenge with any growing pool company is maintaining service quality as they take on more customers and routes.

Local pool companies vary widely in quality. The key differentiators to evaluate are: certification level (CPO vs. none), chemical policy (included vs. extra), contract requirements, and whether the owner is actually involved in day-to-day service.

At Jerico's Pools, the model is fundamentally different: I am the owner and I am the technician. There is no middle management, no franchise fee, no corporate overhead. Every dollar you pay goes directly toward the chemicals in your pool, the expertise of a CPO-certified professional, and the time and attention your pool deserves.

“Emergency pump failure on a Saturday. Jerico was here within 2 hours. Try getting that from a franchise. Owner-operated means he actually cares about keeping his customers.”

Common Questions When Comparing Pool Companies

Should I choose a franchise or an independent pool company?+
Independent, owner-operated companies typically offer more personal service, lower overhead costs, and direct accountability. Franchise companies offer brand recognition but charge franchise fees that increase your price. The key question is: who will actually be at your pool each week?
Why does CPO certification matter?+
CPO (Certified Pool Operator) certification requires passing a comprehensive exam covering water chemistry, equipment operation, and health compliance. Most pool technicians at franchise companies don’t have this certification. It’s the difference between someone who can skim and vacuum vs. someone who truly understands your pool’s chemistry and equipment.
Are chemicals really included at Jerico’s Pools?+
Yes — all chemicals are included in the $200/month price. Many competitors advertise a lower base price but charge $50-100+ monthly for chemicals on top. Always compare total cost, not just the service fee.
What if I’m under contract with another company?+
Many pool service contracts have a 30-day cancellation clause. Check your agreement. When you’re ready to switch, I can usually start within a week and will ensure a seamless transition with no gap in service.
