1. Customer profile — Properties section

Open a customer's profile and scroll down to the Properties section. This is where all of a customer's service locations and pools are managed.

Customer profile — Properties section

2. Click Add Property

Click Add Property to add a service address. A property is the physical location where service happens — a customer can have more than one (e.g. a home and a vacation property).

Click Add Property

3. Fill in the service address

Fill in the service address. PoolDial uses this for route mapping and stop cards. Add a gate code or access instructions so your crew has what they need on-site.

Fill in the service address

4. Click Add Property to save

Click Save Property. The address will appear in the customer's Properties section — now you can add the pool itself.

Click Add Property to save

5. Click Add next to Bodies of Water

Click Add next to Bodies of Water on the property. A pool, spa, fountain, or any other water feature is added as a body of water.

Click Add next to Bodies of Water

6. Enter pool name and type

Give the pool a name (like "Main Pool" or "Backyard Spa"), then select the type — Pool, Spa, Fountain, etc.

Enter pool name and type

7. Enter pool volume

Enter the volume in gallons. This is used for dosing calculations — PoolDial uses it to calculate how much chemical to add. If you don't know the exact volume, an estimate works fine.

Enter pool volume

8. Set surface type and sanitation

Select the surface type and sanitation type. These affect chemical recommendations — plaster pools need different treatment than vinyl, and salt systems need different baselines than chlorine.

Set surface type and sanitation

9. Click Add Body of Water

Click Add Body of Water to save the pool. It will appear under the property, ready for chemical tracking and service history.

Click Add Body of Water
