Getting your pool ready for spring
Memphis winters bring freezing nights on a regular basis from December through February, roughly 43 a year on average, so most pools in the area spend the cold months closed down and protected. Opening reverses that process. The cover comes off and gets cleaned, the pump, filter and heater are reconnected and started, and the pool is checked over before anyone gets in the water.
What a professional opening includes
- Removing and cleaning the winter cover
- Reconnecting and starting the pump, filter and heater
- Clearing out leaves and debris that collected over winter
- Brushing and vacuuming the pool
- Testing and balancing the water for the new season
Every opening ends with an E-Report that shows your starting water readings and before and after photos, so you can see exactly where your pool stands as the season begins.
Timing around Memphis weather
March is typically the wettest month at the Memphis airport station, averaging 5.74 inches of rain, and spring in general brings the severe storms and heavy rainfall that the National Weather Service office in Memphis tracks for the region. Opening a pool before that weather arrives, rather than after a storm has already added debris and diluted the chemistry, makes the first few weeks of the season easier to keep in balance. Your technician can talk through timing that fits your household and the forecast.
Opening pools in growing suburbs
Collierville, Cordova and Germantown are among the fastest growing parts of the Memphis area, with Cordova's 2020 population put at 68,779 and Collierville's at 51,324, making it the third largest municipality in Shelby County. Germantown's 2020 population was 41,333. Growth like that means a lot of pools built within the last couple of decades, often with automated features or saltwater systems that still need the same basic spring startup as an older pool, with the cover off and cleaned, the pump, filter and heater reconnected and running, and the water tested before anyone swims. A newer pool is not necessarily a simpler one to open, since automated equipment still needs to be checked by hand the first time it starts up each year. Whether your pool is brand new or has been opened a dozen times before, the same E-Report documents how it was found and how it was left ready for the season.
Memphis Pool Opening: Frequently Asked Questions
Which Memphis neighborhoods do you cover?
We look after pools across Memphis, including East Memphis, Midtown, Cooper Young, Central Gardens, Chickasaw Gardens and Harbor Town. The full list of areas is on our Memphis page. If you do not see yours, get in touch and we will confirm.
What should I do before the technician arrives?
Clear access to the pool and the equipment and move anything stored on or against the cover. Make sure the power supply to the pump and heater is on. If you know something went wrong last season or over the winter, mention it when booking rather than at the visit.
What happens to my winter cover?
It is removed carefully, cleaned and folded so it is preserved properly for next winter.
Why does the water look green or cloudy when the cover comes off?
Water that has sat under a cover all winter often has some algae and debris in it, even after a good closing. The opening shock and balancing start clearing it, and the filtration finishes the job over the following days.
Will I get a report after the opening?
Yes. You receive a digital report showing your equipment is running, with photos and the initial water readings.
