Cleaning a pool cage in Naples means removing the algae, mildew, dirt, and aluminum oxidation that build up on the screen panels and frame in Florida’s humid, salt-air climate. The correct method uses low pressure and a biodegradable cleaning solution — never high pressure on the screens.
This is the single most important rule. High pressure aimed directly at pool cage screen material will blow out the screen and tear the panels — a common and expensive mistake. Re-screening a pool cage costs far more than cleaning it. The screens must only be cleaned at low pressure with a solution that does the work.
The aluminum frame needs different attention. Over time, UV exposure, salt air, and pool chemical vapors cause the aluminum to oxidize — a chalky yellow or white discoloration. That oxidation cannot be removed by rinsing or pressure alone; it needs a specific aluminum treatment solution.
Done correctly, a pool cage cleaning removes all the biological growth from the screens, treats the oxidation on the frame, and leaves the whole structure clean — with no torn screens and no damage to the enclosure.
Never aim high pressure at pool cage screens. It blows out the screen material and tears the panels — and re-screening costs far more than cleaning. Screens are cleaned only at low pressure with a solution.
1. Protect the pool and surroundings. Pool skimmers, returns, and equipment are protected, and rinse water is directed away from the pool as much as practical. Surrounding landscaping is wetted down.
2. Apply the cleaning solution to the screens. A biodegradable solution is applied to the screen panels at low pressure. The solution breaks down the algae and mildew — the pressure is only there to apply and rinse, never to blast.
3. Treat the aluminum frame. The frame is treated with a specific aluminum oxidation solution that removes the chalky yellow or white discoloration that pressure alone cannot touch.
4. Low-pressure rinse. The entire cage — screens and frame — is rinsed at low pressure, carrying away the dead growth and solution residue without stressing the screen material.
The reason most Naples homeowners hire this out is the screen risk. It only takes one pass of high pressure on a screen panel to tear it — and the cost of re-screening makes a professional cleaning the safer choice.
Algae & Mildew
Florida humidity grows green algae and black mildew on screen panels. A biodegradable solution at low pressure breaks it down without tearing the screen.
Aluminum Oxidation
UV, salt air, and pool chemical vapor cause chalky yellow or white oxidation on aluminum frames. It needs a dedicated oxidation treatment, not just pressure.
Dirt & Pollen
Naples pollen and airborne dirt coat the whole structure. The cleaning solution and low-pressure rinse clear it from screens and frame alike.
Leaves & Debris
Leaves and organic debris collect in the cage gutters and corners, holding moisture and feeding more growth. These are cleared as part of the job.
