The Secret to a Successful Pool Opening

Balancing your pool water and skimming out debris is an important part of everyday routine maintenance during spring and summer, but when temperatures drop, pools tend to take a back seat. If you have hired an expert to close your swimming pool for the fall and winter season, there is a good chance that you have winterized your drain plugs, dropped water levels and have removed the detachable elements of your water system. Cleaning and storing removable items helps to avoid damage, but it also means having to replace them when opening back up.

If you remove the cover and notice that your water is murky, fully of debris or is showing signs of algae growth, a chemical application is not enough to balance pool water chemistry. Over the course of the winter, your water system goes through a lot, so starting the season off right means cleaning physical debris, inspecting the pump and filter, as well as balancing water and checking surrounding areas.

It is important to inspect your pool before diving into its waters. It is difficult to see through cloudy water, or peak into systems through buildup and blockages. Anyone can flip a switch and vacuum the pool bottom, but these automatic cleaners aren’t able to remove residue from walls, flooring and steps, When this buildup is not cleared away, it can create slippery and dangerous walking surfaces.

Having pool water tested by an expert can help to not only identify issues with chlorine levels, but pH levels, as well as total alkalinity and more. After debris is removed and clogs are removed, it is time to add water. Replacing the water in your system so it sits above skimmer lines allows the circulation system to work properly. The circulation system is the heart and soul of any pool and water system, so it is important to protect it. Something as simple as checking the pressure gauge on a sand filter can help to identify whether or not your sand needs to be replaced, improving efficiency.

Puddle Pool Services: When to Open Your Pool

As a property owner, it is tempting to open up your swim space at the first sign of sunshine, but the weather can be unpredictable. The best time to open up an outdoor water system is when the average outdoor temperature is 20 degrees. If you open your pool too early and there is an unexpected cold snap, you can expect frozen water and components, leading to damage. It is always a good idea to contact a local Puddle Pro ahead of time to book your pool opening appointment.

When opening up for spring, there are some aspects of pool care that a simple test kit just can’t handle.
