5 Stretching Exercises for Your Hot Tub
ByMatt Gohlke October 29, 2021

You may already be aware of the benefits of hydrotherapy in culmination with aquatic exercises. Since water helps improve flexibility and massaging jets helps relax muscles, an ideal time to stretch is while soaking in your spa. To help you get started with this part of your wellness journey, we’ve compiled a list of five quick stretches that can be done while in the hot tub. If you are unsure of performing stretches while in the hot tub, they, of course, can be done before or after you soak in the spa. Stretching in your hot tub–and even before or after–can help enhance movement, avoid new injuries, and assist in repairing an existing injury.

Upcoming Freeze Alert
ByMatt Gohlke December 5, 2013

Looks like some cold weather is on it’s way – save yourself from expensive repairs due to freeze damage. Below are things to check before the cold weather gets here: Make sure your main pool pump is functional and is running whenever freezing weather occurs. Most pool pump timers/controls use a freeze guard to accomplish this. If the pump doesn’t automatically kick on, you will need to manually run it whenever the air temperature is 32 degrees or below. Drain waterfall and auxiliary pumps or make sure they are running as well when it is freezing. If you have a booster pump for a cleaner, do not worry about running it or draining it – the main pump will keep water circulating through it. Keep…

School Is Out For the Summer!
ByMatt Gohlke June 3, 2015

Graduation time is here and this group of high school seniors will now prepares to enter the next chapter of their lives. Although I remember high school graduation and the mixed emotions that I had, I have nothing but great memories of the feeling of freedom that the last day of school would bring on an annual basis. There is nothing in adulthood that can compare with the feeling of freedom that kids experience when walking (or running!) out of school on the last day. Some consider summer beginning on Memorial Day weekend, while others believe that summer does not officially begin until summer solstice (Sunday, June 21st). But as for me, I have always considered summer beginning when the kids get out of school….

Pump Settings to Reduce Electricity Costs
ByMatt Gohlke June 27, 2013

5 Ways to Dial in Your Swimming Pool Pump to Reduce Electricity Costs Run your pump long enough to achieve at least one full turnover per day. Depending on the horsepower of your pump and the size of your pool you can figure out what the bare minimum of pump run time would be (all numbers are estimated): ¾ HP pump – turns 4,000 gallons per hour, 1 HP pump – turns 4,500 gallons per hour, 1.5 HP pump – turns 4,750 gallons per hour, 2 HP pump – turns 5,250 gallons per hour, Variable speed pump – varies depending on set speed Since electricity is still cheaper than algaecide, you need to run the pump when the sun is directly above the pool.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gohlke (Gary) replaced my pump with VSP Pentair. I then had them (Dale and crew) come replace the Mastic. Getting great service I had Eli give us a quote come back to replace the Tile, pool
Light and replaster. Bill was the project manager and couldn't ask for anyone better.  I was nervous about the project but after one visit he had my complete trust.
Everyone has been so professional and knowledgeable.  I love my pool.  Can't thank everyone enough.  Special thanks to Gary, Bill, Dale, Eli, all the pool cleaners Aaron, Miguel (a couple more).
Gohlke is now my goto for Pool Care.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience speaking with Connor from Gohlke Pools. Although my home is outside their service area and they were not able to come out to fix my pool’s built-in freeze protection system, Connor was incredibly helpful and generous with his time.

He took the time to review the pictures and information I provided, carefully assess the situation, and explain his diagnosis and possible solutions to me—all without charging me anything. He also went the extra mile by referring me to a company that is closer to my home and may be able to handle the repair.

I truly appreciate Connor’s professionalism, knowledge, kindness, and willingness to help even though he could not take on the job himself. His generosity and customer service really stood out to me. I highly recommend Gohlke Pools, and especially appreciate the assistance I received from Connor!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted these guys for a chiller to be installed for my Inground pool. I was very skeptical if it would actually work in this Texas heat. I have zero shade trees. Decided to just do it and it’s amazing!! Our pool went from feeling like bath water to COLD! We run it at night and that’s it. Did not raise my electric bill like I thought either. Install was amazing. Customer service was and is amazing! If you’re on the fence, DO IT!

We buy all of our supplies from them! They are very friendly in the store. I've had a few issues with repairs they've done for me, like tile replacement. I wasn't really satisfied with it but they do always try to make it up in other ways.
They fixed this area about 3 years ago.  I didn't feel that the guy really knew what he was doing. It didn't really look good at all. I called and he came back to fix it but within a year it started coming off again. I don't think the right grout was used. The original pool has been on there for 30 years so I don't know why the repair wouldn't last longer than a year or 2.

Evan and Anthony from Gohlke Pools installed a device  to regulate the pool's water level for our pool
(a fill-o-matic). In hot afternoon summer sun they both worked diligently to get it done.
Thank you Gentlemen

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have worked with several people at Gohlke. Evan, Daniel and Cody for pool maintenance and repairs. They are courteous and attentive. They listen carefully to issues or questions we have and take time to give us informative responses.

Travis has repaired issues with the equipment and is very thorough and will the share information regarding the repairs.

The office staff is equally responsible and pleasant to communicate with regarding billing and any questions we may have.

Gohlke is a good company to work with.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Korbin came and looked at our very old Thermospa. We decided that repairs would not be cost effective. He tried a couple of repairs but were unsuccessful. Korbin told me about spa removal and we made the decision that it was time for our hot tub to go.
A week later Korbin and some other techs arrived on time and the spa was removed in less than an hour. Everyone was helpful and courteous.
Korbin & the rest of the crew were very good representives of your company.  Thanks for a good experience.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team has been amazing in the entire pool process came up with a design I just love for my backyard. The selection process was not overwhelming. The construction team was there to make sure tasks were completed timely. They continue to help even after the build with questions. I continue to use them for the cleaning after the build. They know the pool and they are keeping it amazing each time I walk outside.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wes Gohlke did an excellent job guiding us through the design process.  As first time pool owners, we relied heavily on Wes and his expertise.  Wes worked hard to keep us within budget and he provided options that kept the price point where we needed to be.  He did a great job trying to understand what we wanted and we’re very happy with final product.  We can’t thank Wes, and the team at Gohlke Pools, enough for making our dream pool a reality.
