    Temecula Pool Opening, Step by Step

    In a scenic area like Temecula, it is no wonder that property owners are keen to jump outside and spend their time in the sunshine and there is no better way to do that than in a swimming pool. As the winter season comes to an end, pool owners are eager to fire up their systems again — and our Puddle pros can help! Professional Temecula pool opening services are able to restore dormant systems, creating sanitary spaces and keeping systems running smoothly.

    When you remove the cover from your pool after a long period of disuse, you might be in store for an unpleasant surprise. It is common to come across algae blooms, debris or cloudy water. These not only look awful but can cause serious damage to your system or the people swimming inside. Professional pool opening services can help to protect swimmers as well as protecting your investment.

    What Goes Into Opening Your Pool

    As temperatures begin to drop, your swimming pool needs a bit of extra attention. Incoming winter temperatures can signal that it is time to start winterizing plugs, blow out return lines, store your pool cover and swap it out for a winter model, as well as dropping water levels. When you want to open your pool for spring, it is important to undo the preventative measures that kept your system in good shape through the cold season.

    Anyone can add water to a pool with a garden hose but it is important to balance the water, as well. Pool chemicals are available at any supply store but it can take years of trial and error to figure out how to put these resources to use. Unlike a standard pool clean, correcting chemistry after a long period of sitting idle means balancing pH levels, chlorine, sanitizers and monitoring the total alkalinity of the water. Without thorough water balancing your pool water can be contaminated, which can mean serious illness for anyone stepping inside.

    Pool water is incredibly important to your swim space but so is your filtration system. Even with a secured safety cover, debris finds a way to get into your water. It is possible to grab a skimmer and remove floating debris or vacuum the pool floor to pick up sunken objects, but what about the items that have crept into your mechanisms? A test kit cannot diagnose issues occurring inside your system that might be impacting your pool equipment.

    A trained eye can help to spot issues with your water, liners or tiles, as well as your pump and filter. Even a small tear in your vinyl liner can grow, paving the way for water damage, flooding and the need for expensive repairs. Having an expert inspect your pool system can help to prevent disaster.

    When you want great results for the swim season, our Puddle Pool experts can help!

    Temecula Pool Opening: Frequently Asked Questions

    When is pool season in Temecula?

    NOAA 1991 to 2020 normals for Fallbrook 5 NE, the nearest station, show average highs of 75.2F in May and 80.8F in June, with 87.8F in September and 83.1F in October. December through February highs average 67 to 68F with almost no nights at or below 32F. That makes for a long warm season, with opening and closing timed around how the pool is used.

    Are there limits on filling a pool in Temecula?

    Neither Rancho California Water District nor Eastern Municipal Water District names a pool filling restriction on its water use rules pages. Both districts use staged water shortage plans. RCWD's permanent rules include irrigating only between 6 p.m. and 9 a.m. Check your district's stage before a large fill.

    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.

    We had a fountain issue at our home, and were referred to Puddle Pools. Jim and the Team were excellent to deal with, very communicative and customer service oriented. They addressed the issues made the repairs necessary and were very helpful. Much appreciated and great work !

    Victor Hoff ★★★★★

    Recently my brother died but while he was alive he let his pool turn to sheet. (He was invalid-ish.) I called Brett and despite the extensive repairs that were needed, he was able to restore the pool to it's former glory and his rates, given the needed repairs, were criminally low. But what impressed me most about him was that when I told him my realtor also knew a pool guy, he didn't try and strong arm me into making a decision on the spot or try to hard close. He said he understood that this was a big decision and that if he still needed his service, please just reach out. Now, I don't know what they call that in North Carolina, but in California, we call that a class act and I ended up going with him. I can't imagine ever using anyone else. Thanks, Brett! You and your team did an amazing job!
