- [First Steps to Buy a Pool](https://www.pettitpools.com/buy-fiberglass-pool/): Hello!  
- [Air in Pump Housing](https://www.pettitpools.com/air-in-pump-housing/): Some air in the pump basket will always be there and will not hurt the pump. If your PSI gauge on Filter Cartridge Housing at least 8 psi, you have enough gallons per minute flowing through pipes.
- [Top Questions to Ask Before Buying a Fiberglass Pool](https://www.pettitpools.com/top-questions-to-ask-before-buying-a-fiberglass-pool/): Thinking about adding a fiberglass pool to your backyard? Great choice! Fiberglass pools are known for their sleek design, durability, and quick installation—but before you dive in, it’s important to ask the right questions to make sure you're making the best decision for your home, lifestyle, and budget.
- [Fiberglass or Concrete Pool](https://www.pettitpools.com/fiberglass-and-concrete-pools/): Choosing between fiberglass and concrete pools isn’t about one being better than the other, it’s about finding the pool that matches your lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals. Both are excellent investments that can transform your backyard, but they offer very different experiences in terms of design, maintenance, and cost.
- [Fiberglass Pool Durability](https://www.pettitpools.com/the-science-behind-fiberglass-pool-durability/): When you're investing in a swimming pool, you want something that looks great, lasts long, and requires minimal upkeep. Fiberglass pools consistently rank high in all three categories, but what exactly makes them so durable? It’s more than just the material; it's the science behind the structure.
- [Custom Luxury: How Concrete Pools Offer Unlimited Design Possibilities](https://www.pettitpools.com/custom-luxury-how-concrete-pools-offer-unlimited-design-possibilities/): At Pettit Pools, we’ve built our reputation on delivering high-quality, low-maintenance fiberglass pools that families love. But for homeowners dreaming of a fully customized, one-of-a-kind design, we’re excited to now offer concrete pool construction—bringing a new level of creative freedom to your backyard vision.
- [Say No to Liquid Chlorine and Muriatic Acid](https://www.pettitpools.com/say-no-to-liquid-chlorine-and-muriatic-acid/): People ask why we don't like Liquid Chlorine or Liquid Muriatic acid in our pools; not just like it, but state it voids the warranty.  These two chemicals are what some pool service companies use for sanitation when a chlorine tab feeder or salt system is not working properly, and they haven't been paid to troubleshoot the issue. Or with Muriatic Acid, a cheap way to handle PH even though it's main use is as Concrete and Brick etcher and wash due to how caustic it is opening up pores (which you don't want to do).  The safer alternatives would cost them more per pool which individually isn't much but they usually try to service 50 pools a week. 
- [Pool of the Week: The Splash Model in Wesley Chapel](https://www.pettitpools.com/pool-of-the-week-the-splash-model-in-wesley-chapel/): Every week, we install incredible pools that transform our customers' backyards into serene escapes.

While there are no more pirates to fight or treasure to find, Hudson still has lots to do. A popular spot to meet up with friends in Hudson is Sunwest Park.
- [Staining](https://www.pettitpools.com/staining/): High pH levels will cause calcium carbonate in the water to precipitate or bond to the fiberglass surface. When this happens, it often leaves a white gritty layer that looks much worse when dry.  As the picture shows, this white layer becomes very noticeable when the pool water drops below its normal level.  This means that stains are due to improper water chemistry or failure to maintain the pool properly.

- [Warranty](https://www.pettitpools.com/warranty/): If you have a warranty request, please take a picture of the item and e-mail to warranty@pettitpools.com We will respond within 2 business days. Please note that Gelcoat repairs are only done in the summer as we do gelcoat repairs under water when water is at 80 degrees and warmer for at least 5 days.  Remember, Gelcoat is not waterproof and is porous (why you must not use liquid chlorine or muriatic acid), it is the dark red / black fiberglass that is waterproof.  This is unlike concrete pools which is the opposite, the 3/4" coating on the concrete is waterproof and a main reason why most concrete pools will develop leaks within 10-15 years as the pool settles. 
- [Factory Rebate](https://www.pettitpools.com/factory-rebate/): You shouldn't stress over the high finance rates while enjoying your pool. Pettit Pools is now offering a $3,000 rebate as either a price reduction for cash buyers or receive it as a rebate check at the end of your job to help pay your finance charge for several months.  Have a $300 monthly payment? That's 10 months worth of payments from your rebate or pay it directly on your principal immediately so you don't pay interest on it.
