About Portside Pool Purification
We’re a family-owned pool water purification company serving San Diego County — built around one simple idea: keep pools healthy without wasting water.
Our Mission
Portside Pool Purification exists to help homeowners regain control of their pool water through professional testing, clear communication, and advanced purification methods. When calcium, stabilizer (CYA), and dissolved solids climb, many pools are pushed toward draining and refilling. Our goal is to provide a smarter alternative when appropriate.
Founded by Experience
Portside Pool Purification was founded by Jeff Simon, bringing over 15 years of hands-on pool industry experience. We focus on real-world water chemistry — LSI balance, calcium scaling, salt system performance, heater protection, and long-term plaster care — so your pool stays easier to maintain.
Built for Southern California
Local pools deal with hard fill water, evaporation, rising water costs, and drought concerns. Our process is designed around the realities of San Diego-area pool ownership, with a careful, step-by-step approach to restoring balance and improving water clarity.
How We Work
- Test first: We verify the numbers and explain what they mean.
- Set expectations: You’ll know what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and what “good” looks like.
- Protect the pool: Chemistry decisions are made with plaster and equipment longevity in mind.
- Keep it simple: Clear next steps so your water stays controllable after service.
