Aldergrove Pool Cleaning
Throughout the summer months, property owners in Aldergrove love to soak up the sun poolside but as it gets colder, you are likely spending less and less time by the water. It is easy to overlook the needs of a pool during a cold snap, but failing to close your water systems on time can lead to serious headaches and potential damage. Professional Aldergrove pool closing services protect your swim space over winter, preventing damage and paving the way for an easier opening in spring.
Understanding Fall Pool Care: Knowing Your Options
When the average outdoor temperature reaches 15 degrees, it is time to think about closing your pool for the winter. British Columbia has some of the most mild winters in Canada, making it possible to choose between closing your pool completely or opting for “off-season” services throughout the colder months.
There are tons of factors that add to the overall condition of your swim space. It can take years of practice to fully understand the needs of your swimming pool as the seasons change. Everything from swapping out mesh pool covers for solid winter covers can help to maintain the condition of water systems. Instead of struggling to keep up with the needs of your pool, have an expert prep your swim space for the cold season.
Close Your Pool: Pools in the Aldergrove area are not known to freeze over completely but in a colder environment, there is always the risk of frozen water inside internal components and plumbing lines. Frozen water makes plastic brittle and can often cause breakage and it is known to expand inside pipes, even to the point of bursting. The best way to protect your circulation and filtration systems is to prevent water from getting inside. This means dropping the water level in your pool, as well as winterizing drain plugs in an in-ground model or installing water bags in above ground pools.
Off-Season Services: Closing pools for the season means having to open back up in spring. Pool openings require heavy treatments that remove debris, scrub sides, and return pool water to being properly balanced. This requires an influx of chemicals, time, energy and a lot of heavy lifting. Maintaining scheduled cleanings at a reduced rate throughout colder months helps to keep pools in great shape throughout the winter. That means that when spring comes around, all you have to do to prep your pool is turn on the heater!
Even with regular cleaning and maintenance routines, it is important to provide an in-depth inspection before closing down your water system. This means balancing water chemistry as well as inspecting filters. In the case of a sand filter, this is as simple as checking pressure gauges to ensure sand doesn’t need to be replaced. By checking up on cartridge filters, as well as monitoring chlorine levels, pH levels, total alkalinity, calcium and more, you can expect the best possible results.
Puddle Pool Closings & Winter Maintenance: What to Expect From An Expert
It is easy to make the most out of the summer months when you have access to a clean and inviting swim space and it all starts with winter water care. If you are closing your pool for the season, a preventative application of pool chemicals can help to reduce growth rates of algae, while a full cleaning of skimmer baskets and inspections of mechanisms can help to provide peace of mind that you are not going into the winter months with the potential for unexpected damage.
In order to get the best results for your swim space, our Puddle technicians have created a multi-step approach to closings that cater to not only pool water itself, but pool equipment, covers and more. Water treatments can help to eliminate bacteria before a long period of sitting idle, while removing debris, emptying skimmer baskets and inspecting filters remove potential contaminants. Detachable components can be removed and dried for storage to avoid weakening in the cold. Winter covers can then be installed.
