Coquitlam Pool Closing Service

Pools across Coquitlam are a staple of summer fun but what happens to water systems over winter? British Columbia might be known for mild winters but that doesn’t mean that the mercury doesn’t dip below zero! As fall comes around and temperatures begin to drop, it is important to come up with a treatment plan for your swimming pool. Leaving water systems out in the cold can lead to unexpected damage and expensive repair bills, so call Puddle for your Coquitlam pool closing to keep systems running smoothly.

During the fall season, property owners have to deal with unexpected cold snaps. This is bad enough for you but it is even worse for your pool. When the average temperature reaches 15 degrees, there is the possibility of freezing inside your pool system. In order to protect your pool over the course of winter, our team of Puddle technicians have created a multi-step approach that caters to the needs of swim spaces from the ground, up.

Fall Pool Care: Closing Pools Versus Winter Treatment Plans

When cold weather hits pool owners have two options: close water systems down for the season, or choose an off-season cleaning and maintenance plan. Both services are designed to keep pools in tip-top shape, no matter their shape, make, model, size or style.

Pool Closing Services: Closing a pool for the winter is not as simple as swapping out your pool cover and forgetting it. In a mild climate, there is always a chance of frozen water. Even if your whole pool is not frozen over, that does not mean that there isn’t frozen water inside your system. Dropping the water level and winterizing drain plugs is a great way to prevent water from seeping into sensitive areas where it can cause damage. If there is frozen water around your pool pump or inside plumbing lines it will make plastic brittle and causes expansion in pipes.

Bi-Weekly Winter Maintenance: In the same way that routine cleanings benefit your swimming pool during summer, winter cleanings keep swim spaces in great shape all year long. Puddle technicians offer the same level of care, but on a reduced schedule. This option means your water chemistry is still monitored, along with inspections of pool filters, return lines, skimmer baskets and more. Maintaining sanitizer and chlorine levels means you are not dealing with cloudy water, discolourations or algae in spring. This means that when you want to open your pool for the season, all you have to do is turn on your heater. This helps property owners make the most out of the swim season.

Every model of pool has a different set of needs. For example, in-ground pools need to have water levels dropped to avoid freezing, while ice bags are the preferred tool for above ground pools. Cleaning and maintaining cartridge filters is also a much different process from looking after sand filters. When you want the best results for your pool closing, ditch the testing kit and amateur approach and call a Puddle technician instead.
