As the heat ramps up across North Lakes and the surrounding suburbs, pool owners are looking for more than just a clean swim — they’re after comfort, efficiency, and a splash of luxury. Whether you live in Mango Hill, Kallangur, Redcliffe, or as far out as Caboolture, now is the perfect time to consider upgrading your pool equipment to match the energy of the season.

From energy-efficient pumps to robotic cleaners that save you hours of maintenance, summer is the season to bring your backyard investment into the future. Atlantis Pool Services, based in North Lakes, has been helping locals keep their pools pristine for years — and business owner Kylie Rojahn says this is the busiest time of year for smart upgrades.

“Everyone wants to enjoy their pool without being stuck maintaining it every second day,” Kylie said. “We’re seeing more people come in asking how they can make their pool easier to manage, more energy-efficient, and more fun.”

Whether you’re planning big weekend BBQs or just want to enjoy peaceful twilight swims after a long workday, here’s how you can upgrade your pool life this summer.

 🧼 Robotic Cleaners: The Summer Game-Changer   

Manual vacuuming and daily skimming might be fine in winter, but summer brings a different story. With more swimmers, more leaves, and more use, a robotic cleaner is the ultimate poolside assistant.

Today’s models can scrub walls, navigate stairs, and even learn the layout of your pool to clean more efficiently. Some come with app controls, allowing you to start a clean while you’re out running errands or enjoying a day at the beach.

Kylie said the demand for robotic cleaners in the Moreton Bay region has skyrocketed this summer.

“People are realising their time is better spent in the pool, not around it. The latest robotic cleaners we offer are incredibly thorough — you’ll hardly need to lift a finger.”

Atlantis Pool Services stocks a range of options for different pool sizes and budgets — and their team will help match the right cleaner to your unique needs.

 ⚡ Energy-Efficient Pumps: Power Up, Save More   

With the Queensland sun baking down, most pool pumps work overtime to keep water circulating and clean. But that energy comes at a cost — unless you’re running an energy-efficient pump.

Upgrading to a variable-speed or eco pump can cut electricity costs dramatically. These smart pumps use only the power they need at different times of day, making them an ideal solution for families who run their pools regularly over summer.

“We always recommend energy-efficient pumps for our North Lakes clients. Not only do they reduce power bills, they’re also much quieter, which is great if you’re enjoying your backyard in the evenings,” Kylie explained.

 💧 Salt Chlorination: Swim Comfortably All Summer Long   

Tired of red eyes, itchy skin, and that overpowering chlorine smell? A salt chlorinator could be your pool’s best friend this summer.

Saltwater pools use a natural process to produce chlorine, which means gentler water that’s easier to balance. It’s a popular upgrade for families, especially those with young kids or sensitive skin.

“We’ve been converting a lot of older pools to salt systems in the last few months,” Kylie said. “It’s a cleaner, softer swimming experience — and it reduces the need for constant chemical top-ups.”

Atlantis Pool Services handles salt conversions, including installation of high-quality chlorinators and follow-up servicing.

 🌡️ Solar Pool Heating: Extend Your Summer   

Who doesn’t want to keep the pool party going well into the evening — or even into autumn?

Solar heating systems are a fantastic way to extend your swimming season without running up your electricity bill. They’re efficient, environmentally friendly, and surprisingly affordable to install.

“North Lakes and the surrounding suburbs are blessed with so much sunshine,” Kylie said. “It just makes sense to harness that energy to heat your pool. Our clients love the difference it makes — especially in the early mornings or cooler nights.”

Solar systems can be retrofitted to most existing pools, and Atlantis Pool Services offers consultation and can introduce installation service providers across the region.

 🛠️ Upgrade, Don’t Replace: Equipment Repairs and Retrofits   

If your pump, chlorinator, or filter has been acting up, you might not need to replace it entirely. Atlantis Pool Services offers expert diagnostics and repairs — often saving customers hundreds by restoring existing equipment.

“We’re not here to push sales,” Kylie said. “If we can fix something and save you money, we’ll do that. Our customers trust us because we give honest advice — and that’s how we’ve built strong relationships across the community.”

Atlantis Pool Services also offers retrofit services — meaning you can add automation or upgrade features without a full overhaul.

 🧪 Don’t Forget the Basics: Testing and Water Balancing   

New equipment won’t perform at its best if your water chemistry is off. Atlantis Pool Services offers in-store water testing — and Kylie says this simple service makes a world of difference in summer.

“It’s free and only takes a few minutes, but it can save your pool. Green water or chemical imbalances are way more common during summer. A quick test now could save you a weekend of stress later.”

Bring a sample into the North Lakes shop and the team will help you adjust your chemical levels to keep everything running smoothly.

 🧴 Bonus: Upgrade Your Accessory Game   

Sometimes, it’s the small additions that make your summer poolside moments even better. Atlantis Pool Services stocks a curated range of accessories to complement your backyard lifestyle:

  • Floating drink holders and loungers

  • Shade umbrellas

  • LED pool lighting

  • Pool-safe toys for the kids

  • Maintenance kits for quick clean-ups

These simple upgrades add personality and convenience to your summer setup, helping you get more from every swim.
