Step-by-step tasks organized by phase: before first visit, first visit inspection, first service, and post-visit setup.
Template to capture pool dimensions, surface type, equipment details, and initial water chemistry on the first visit.
The first visit establishes the foundation for the entire customer relationship. Professional onboarding — documented equipment inventories, baseline water chemistry, clear service expectations — differentiates premium operators from competitors who simply show up and add chlorine. This checklist ensures consistency across every new customer signup.
Before the first service visit, complete administrative setup: signed service agreement, payment method on file, gate code and access instructions confirmed, service day and time window communicated, customer added to scheduling software, and welcome communication sent. Completing these steps in advance prevents delays and demonstrates professionalism.
The first visit should include a comprehensive pool and equipment inspection: photograph all equipment, record pool dimensions and calculate volume, identify surface type, document every piece of equipment (brand, model, serial number, approximate age), record baseline filter pressure, test full water chemistry panel, and note any safety concerns or needed repairs.
The Pool Spec Sheet template captures equipment details that are difficult to collect later: pump brand/model/horsepower, filter type/brand/model, heater type/brand/model, salt system brand/cell model, automation system, pool cleaner type, and pool light specifications. This information is essential for ordering replacement parts, scheduling maintenance, and tracking warranty coverage.
This spreadsheet was built to solve these exact problems.
You forgot to get the gate code and now you're standing outside the fence calling the customer who isn't home.
You didn't photograph the equipment on the first visit. Now you can't remember the pump model when it breaks.
The customer expected a full inspection and you just showed up and dumped chlorine. Not a great start.
It took two weeks to set up billing because you forgot to collect their payment info during onboarding.
This spreadsheet fixes all of it. Free.
When spreadsheets stop scaling, PoolDial picks up where they leave off.
