    Placer County Pool Opening: Frequently Asked Questions

    Which Placer County neighborhoods do you cover?

    We look after pools across Placer County, including Roseville, West Roseville, East and Central Roseville, North Rocklin, South and Central Rocklin and Granite Bay. The full list of areas is on our Placer County page. If you do not see yours, get in touch and we will confirm.

    When should a pool be opened for the season?

    Earlier than most people expect. Once daytime temperatures rise consistently, algae starts growing under the cover whether the pool is open or not, and a pool opened after that has begun is more work to clear than one opened before. Opening before you intend to swim also leaves time to deal with anything the winter has damaged.

    What happens during a pool opening?

    The cover comes off and is cleaned and stored, winter plugs are removed and the equipment is reassembled and restarted. The water level is brought up and the system is run while the water is tested and balanced. Any damage found from the winter is reported at that point rather than discovered mid season.

    Will the water be swimmable the same day?

    Usually not immediately. Even a well closed pool needs the filtration running and the chemistry corrected before it is ready, and water that has sat all winter takes time to clear. Opening earlier in the season is what gives that process time to happen without cutting into swimming.

    Do I need an opening if I never closed the pool properly?

    If anything, yes. A pool that was left rather than closed tends to need more work at the start of the season, not less, because untreated standing water and equipment that was not drained are the two things that cause the most damage over winter. Mention it when you book so the right amount of time is set aside.
