Zaras for Pool Service

Fifty stops a week, one bill a month. One record holds the route.

Weekly routes, monthly billing, openings, closings, and equipment repairs.

Weekly routesEquipment repairsOpen & close

Two businesses, one trade.

In the Sunbelt the route runs all year and staffing barely moves — California and Florida alone hold over forty percent of the country’s inground pools. In the Northeast the season compresses into five months, and openings and closings bracket it on either end. Staffing swings at least five percent in the Sunbelt and at least a hundred and thirteen percent in New Jersey — the widest swing in the states we measured. Either way, the record runs both, and the monthly bill is what makes either one predictable: seventy-six percent of pool pros bill customers monthly.

What carries season to season: the monthly bill equipment history last season’s readings.

One week in May. Three jobs, one record.

A twelve-stop pool route, a spring opening, and a pump failure mid-route — the schedule for the tech, the history for the office, one thread for the account.

Twelve-stop pool route

Each stop’s readings and chemical log are on the record before the gate opens — a substitute tech is not starting over.

The route bill and the equipment desk.

Pool service money comes from two engines — the route bill that makes the year predictable in any climate, and the equipment desk where the margin is. Zaras runs both from the same record.

The route bill

Monthly billing on a weekly stop — the base that makes the year predictable whether the route runs all year or five months.

The equipment desk

Pumps, heaters, filters, automation — where the margin is, priced off history instead of a guess at the truck.

What Zaras runs for pool service.

The record, not the whiteboard — every pool from first call to paid, with nothing re-keyed into a second system.

Straight answers.

What does it cost?

Plans and prices are public on the pricing page — no sales call to get a number.

Does it work with QuickBooks?

Yes. Invoices and payments flow straight into QuickBooks — no double entry, no bookkeeper fights.

What happens to my data?

It’s yours, both directions. Customers, pool histories, and monthly billing come in with you when you join — and everything exports, any time.

Can it run commercial work?

Yes — HOA, hotel, and municipal accounts on daily or every-other-day schedules, with per-site logs and NET-terms billing living beside your residential routes.

What size shop is this for?

Pool-service companies running 1–40 crews — from an owner-operator to a multi-truck shop.

What does private beta mean?

We onboard a limited number of shops at a time. Request an invite, fit is reviewed within 24 hours with a reply either way, and accepted shops get guided onboarding — pricebook and customer list loaded with you, not dumped on you.
