Scale forming water can cause staining of your pool fittings and surfaces, and can cause pipes and valves to become clogged and inoperable.

The solution: By taking careful water tests, and using an evaluative tool called the Langelier Water Saturation Index, we can determine if your water is becoming either corrosive or scale forming. Using our computerized analysis, we then recommend the correct chemical additions needed to maintain your water in a properly balanced state. PROPERLY BALANCED WATER SAVES YOU MONEY! In addition to protecting your pool and equipment, water which is properly balanced will tend to use less chemicals and less sanitizers than water which is out of balance.

At each visit, we provide you with the following:

Free Chlorine Test	Total Chlorine Test	Combined Chlorine Test
pH Test	Total Alkalinity Test	Calcium Hardness Test
Stabilizer Test	Total Dissolved Solids Test	Water Balance Report
Computerized Water Analysis	Chemical Recommendations	Advice and Guidance

APC has on staff a National Recreation and Park Association Certified Playground Safety Inspector, and can provide you with a complete playground safety audit. This Audit is an important management tool for schools, public parks, churches, and other public and semi-public playgrounds. Utilizing the most current Consumer Product Safety Commission and American Society for Testing and Materials guidelines, we'll do a thorough inspection of every piece of your playground, including all play events, swings, climbers, and safety surface, and provide you with a report, including photos of your playground. This report will identify any problems with your playground, including any ADA issues, and will help you to plan for corrective action. We will also provide you with suggested maintenance and inspection schedules, as well as sample forms which can be used to assist you in keeping your playground up to current code.

All operators of public and semi-public playground owners should have a complete playground audit done to provide a "snapshot" of the condition of their playgrounds.
