How An Abandoned Indoor Pool Is Deep Cleaned | Deep Cleaned | Insider
this abandoned pool has more succesfully grown plants than my pots which i take care of
bruh that hits deep lol
LOL yeah, seeds sprout and then just die on the pots sometimes.
You failed your children because you controlled them too much. They're weak
@@nunyabiznes33 Just give them a power leaf, if you know what I mean
Oh god 😂 😭
Am I the only one who is more fascinated with the fact that life found a way to grow in there to begin with!?
I was just thinking that 🥰🌱
Yes
Y.,.
I’m pretty sure that was planted in there. Looks like they made a fish pond out of it for a while
Yes
The fact that he is wearing white shoes at minute 1:23 makes me trust this guy with anything, he looks like he knows what he's doing.
i was literally about to comment that he is wearing white shoes like that in that nasty ol pool
@@extra8088 I was more interested in how those white shoes were going to fare more than I was about the pool.
Last week a guy went into our bank wearing a pair of white shoes, I agreed yo loan him a million right away
@@hotdavesweet But now it's like a million dollar pool 😎
See my comment. Use plastic spade shovels! Not metal. Jt
The pool had a whole ecosystem in it. Plants living isolated from other species.
im not gonna lie i was kinda sad to see it all drained and washed away
Maybe after several hundred years it'd be a new species
Tbh Id rather swim in that rather than the chlorine / flouride enriched filth
@@geelllee same...they were happy plants after all..
@@Neddy540 wish more people were interested in building natural pools rather than pools that are unfriendly to the environment and ourselves :/
If the person was living there, and this place wasn't just setting abandoned, then they must have been really depressed or extremely busy. It's impressive how well it cleaned up, and didn't have any permanent stains. The builder must have used top of the line materials.
True, those tiles look pristine.
Depressed, busy, maybe really old?
You can tell he's bold because he did it with no gloves on. I wouldn't even dare touch the railing on the side of that pool without gloves. It looked like there's damn near 100 new bacteria strains in the brown water.
He also did the chemicals without gloves which just gives me stress 😂🙏🏻
Lol I think the boldest part was just casually throwing around fuming hydrochloric acid and spraying water on it. Though the guy's a professional so surely he had protective gear for that part.
That's why y'all prone to diseases and cancer, and as if the air y'all inhaling doesn't have viruses and bacteria!
@@starlight0694 Kid, literally everybody regardless of who they are is prone to disease and cancer. Walking into a situation of unknown possibilities of harm and not using the tools to protect yourself, is literally the epitome of carelessness.
No gloves and white shoes
The deep cleaned series is by far my favorite on this channel
the pool before it was cleaned looks strangely beautiful
Agree
nature in modernization
same it looks so beautiful id swim in it
the comment above is a joke
Wow that’s so satisfying
I hope Insider will learn how to normalize volume/voice 1 day in 2022. Or maybe 2095.
Another checkmark comments for the sake of commenting
Washing away the algae to reveal the mosaic art at the bottom of the pool reminds me of kiddie bowls that have cartoons at the bottom, I loved those lol 😂
Is this the best time?
Yea! The best time to trade & make profits from uranium stocks *(DYOR)* do your own research. Through a professional *Nancy* *Lynn* *Lewis* you can look her up!
Living off Uranium stocks currently. It's fun
@@kathleenstoner.n7499 *Congratulations*
Oh look, one of those bot reply chains. Initial comment makes no sense- try harder, bot creator.
@@crypto-investltd7871 another note for the idiot bot creator- "do your own research" comes off as aggressive- don't put it in your advertisements.
Man destoyed a entire ecosystem while cleaning the pool
Lmao he's the cleanser of these worlds I guess
Ah... the Sheer Heart Attack has no weakness
an*
Hatsoff to the man, he is cleaning the pool with white shoes🤣🤣
The way he cut those salt sacks are satisfying af😩
Guy with the white shoes is a legend!
2:40 some time, somewhere, someone mistaked those for marshmellows
How do they clean the pools internals, like the piping, water filter and all the machine stuff hidden in the pool?
The little goblins are so efficient at what they do that they're literally monopolized by big companies
I'm NOT professional, simply owned a decent pool a few years ago. Depending on filter type, it would likely need to be replaced or (in the case of a sand filter) have the filter medium changed or washed\backwashed. The pipes are likely cleaned with pipe attachments for the pressure washer or long, flexible brushes called 'sewer snakes' to scrub out the piping. As for the other machinery, my best guess is either disassembly and cleaning or chemical fluid washing.
@@cancelhandles interesting. Thanks for a lot.
Super chlorination kills everything, the left over is picked up by the filters
@@cancelhandles Dont listen to this guy, its really just little goblins in there with little pressure washers
Wow what a transformation and for such a short time! Fantastic work!!
This is oddly satisfying to watch. But it also hurts my soul that so much resources was used to clean this pool. Take care of your things man! To think it being indoors was supposed to keep a bulk of the dirt away 😐
Thank you for the update, Insider..!! Wow, that's an amazing job..!!
Finally, someone actually drained the swamp.
Underrated comment.
thep00lguy 2024
What a great job! How great to make it look like new again!
At 2:48 I thought that was marshmallows oh no (the forbidden marshmallow)
It looks like that abandoned pool had a whole ecosystem there before being cleaned. Although the pool clean-up was a welcome one, I would've love to keep the pool the way it is as long as there isn't any safety hazards
That's a gigantic insect incubator, outside it's fine, inside means big problems.
@@bodyno3158 and the mosquitoes alone will make the neighborhood's life a nightmare
Time to put some larvae eating fish in there then
I'm obsessed with the pool guys vids... He takes pride in his work & it always shows in the final product 💯😁
"In a bucket of wo'ah" it gets me every time haha
The music and the cleaning is so pleasing to the eyes
So calming to watch
This is so relaxing to watch!!!
And this was a... indoor... pool? For "little bits flying in". WOW! I do auto detailing... but once you have like plants growing- I would walk- this is next level! Great job!
Me thinks someone was using that as a giant fish tank at one time those were aquatic plants I have seen used in fish ponds to help keeps the nitrate levels down from fish poo 💩 nice job sir I'm in the pool business as well 31 years
Follow your guy for the pool work, this dude knows how to get things done
The smell of that must have been horrendous
Still haven't seen the full pool afterwards.
I love the way that he clean the pool I could watch this forever
Reminds me of the movie “Aquamarine” Lol
This video is so satisfying!
Ahhh nice and clean. Ready for more years of neglect.
Beautiful work.
That is amazing. Good stuff
This is our pool. Miles was great to work with. Ended up needing some more repairs.
More interested in that ecosystem! Life is amazing, it finds places to grow where you can't even imagine. ❤️❤️
I wouldn't even dare to come close to the pool, there could be a crocodile or something.
the process is so satisfying 😇
Extremely helpful great lad and channel ✌
Great job!
This is so satisfying to watch....!
Isn't it possible that putting all that water vapour into the air when you begin to clean, can potentially aerosolise some nasty or other you don't want to be breathing in? I had that same thought about high pressure sprayers that work off a water butt......
So therapeutic
Hope this cleaner has a full time business. Unbelievable cleaning omg
Yes he does
Good job cleaning guys!
Nice job n well done! (can't believe some people living in such luxury would let it deteriorate like that).
Wooow..... That was really interesting video.... 👍👍👍👍👍👍
plants!!!! pretty
ultra satisfying 😍
If the estimated time for the pool to have gotten that bad (6 years ish) why is there still so much water in the pool? Shouldn't there be a lot of water loss from evaporation? Outdoor pools get refilled by precipitation, thus why you see almost full neglected outdoor pools. Six years is a long time for an indoor pool to still have that amount of water.
possivly because if there wasnt any water in it at all that could cause moe damage than just what the plants did, but i could be wrong there
You need heat for evaporation. It would stay a loooong time in an air conditioned home.
@@mycatiswaysmarterthanmosto8500 that's a good point, evaporation does happen faster in warmer temperatures. But if it's cold, then mold grows way faster(it really didn't look like a slimy gross mess on the windows and other surfaces that should have been awful). And even if the room was kept at your average home temperature of mid 60's the evaporation should still have been significant.
Most indoor pools are in rooms separated from the ventilation system. The air would quickly get saturated with humidity and no more would evaporate. If there is nowhere for the water to go, it stays in the pool. If the temperature stayed the same the air would stay saturated and if the temperature went up and down it would condense and end up back in the pool. It's like a glass of water. Leave it on the counter and it will evaporate. Put it in a sealed Tupperware container and it won't be able to.
Thats why the air changes and smells so much like chlorine when you go to an indoor pool.
Thanks for the tutorial, I'm going to start my own pool cleaning company and TikTok account, this is great
4:21 that sound is oddly satisfying.
Great video. I don’t have my own pool. Id love one so your videos are the next best thing.
Super satisfying 😍😌
the amount of chemicals he poured into so insane ...
Looks amazing
Fascinating
Amazing how life only seeks to increase, expand, and advance.
Cleaning in white shoes👌
So satisfying to the eye
Great work 👌 beautiful 🙏 thanks
Why is this so satisfying
I love how he makes his job sound so easy lol
What about the water alkalinity and pH balancing? You do that before the granular chloride. Also would have to check the pump(s) and filter to make sure all is okay. It cost more to let a pool go bad than to operate it normally. We went a few days without power after hurricane Ivan and the pool got real bad real quick. Consider the debris in the pool from the storm then no water filtration... green pond in less than a day.
At that point, might as well turn it into fish pond
Exactly
All this hard work to clean the pool…and all it takes is a birthday party for a 5 year old kid to turn this pool yellow! 🤓
LMFAO 😂😂😂😂😂
🥲
Beautiful!!
That was smooth af
I had a choice at 16. McDonalds for 4.65$/h (1984 Canada) or working for my brother. Installing swimming pools.. If I'd known my brother's REAL character a BIT more Back then. I'd have stuck with McD. BUT he had the RIGHT idea. We installed OZONE filters. An about 90% decrease in chemicals.
So satisfying
Insider : cleans the pool in a few days Me : it takes me a. Whole month to clean my room
*SATISFYING !!*
could you show how the pumpsystem is cleaned. with all the growing antlife in de pool the pumpsystem must be full with it too?
Probably wasn't. The chemicals will kill anything alive and anything that comes out will be caught in the filter. There isn't much oxygen or CO2 in there to sustain life, so the pipes were probably not as bad as the rest of it. Probably flushed them out with clean water before they filled it and let the chemicals do the rest.
Hard Work is always Fruitful
I can't swim in a chlorine treated water like pool and the likes of it. After approximately 30 min, I throw up badly and my body getting cold. But I'm doing just fine swimming in the sea, river and other natural sites.
stop drinking the pool water
Damn that's a quick reaction
My skin starts to burn after an hour or so really badly, but yea, I'm fine with swimming in rivers and sea
Sounds like some sort of allergy? I don't know, but that isn't normal...
I get a similar reaction to it. I'm very sensitive to most things. Lights, chemicals, pollutants, electricity, bad things added to food, the slightest temperature change and other things
I wish I'm taking part in the clean up. It's very satisfying to watch. Great work 👏
Exactly bro
Good education on cleaning pools
Holla at ya boy for that pool work 😉
The chlorine tablets look like marshmallows.
3:38 the forbidden gummy
I like To see dirty things getting Clean .. That look is just 🔥🤣🤣
2:43 - forbidden tums
Mix with brake fluid for a special fiery treat.
Your videos are awesome
Now i know how to clean my own indoor pool if i ever abandon it for 6 years
Was the pool drain not clogged with the debris? Very good job!
I’m also wondering if they swapped out those covers. 😂
Good job 👍
he cleaned the soul of the pool!(I thought it was so cute when it was dirty, it looked like a frog pond lol
Nice work! Gratulation! Hi!👍😊
Need a cut of you just opening colorine bags it’s fun and I learned something
Refreshing
3:58 he really likes to do that 😂
Awesome cleaning video
To the brothers - you did wonderful work. I hope whoever ends up with this car can appreciate the work you did to restore and save it.
You might as well throw in a few Koi and call it a POND!
