    When to Book Pool Closing in Uxbridge

    The internet is full of tips for fall pool maintenance but not all of these are effective. There is nothing worse than spending time and energy trying to close down your pool only for it to become damaged anyway. Living in a winter wonderland might be great for Uxbridge residents but it this can mean big trouble for outdoor swim spaces. Uxbridge pool closing services prevent damage, encourage a smooth opening in spring and provide peace of mind to owners. 

    It can be tough to admit that summer is coming to a close but when the temperatures begin to drop your swimming pool is left out in the cold — literally! Shutting your system down for the off-season is not as simple as throwing on a pool cover and hoping for the best. This method leaves the door open for serious damage to pools themselves and surrounding areas. Ditch the risk by calling a local Puddle Pro for all of your fall pool care needs.

    Closing Your Pool For the Winter: Protecting Your Swim Space 

    Pool owners understand just how much attention water systems need throughout the swim season. It is easy to forget about regular chemical treatments and cleaning when you aren’t using a pool or hot tub regularly but a proper closing should always a priority. The major risk facing pools throughout fall and winter is freezing. Installing a water bag in an above ground pool and applying a mix of winter pool chemicals can help to prevent freezing but inground pools are more complicated. 

    Protecting your pool for the off-season involves dropping the water level so it falls a few inches below the skimmer lines and winterizing drain plugs. Both of these steps prevent water from seeping into sensitive areas where they can freeze and cause damage. An application of winter chemicals will go a long way to prevent freezing but it will also help to reduce the rate of algae growth. Without chemical treatments, pool water will look like a swamp by the time that you open up in spring. 

    It is also a good idea to remove detachable components to be dried and stored for the fall season and throughout the winter. Each closing should also start with a thorough cleaning and debris removal. This means skimming unwanted items from water surfaces so they do not rot and sink to the bottom of the pool. It is also important to empty skimmer baskets, remove all sunken debris with manual vacuums and scoop floating debris from pool water. Flush any sitting water from return lines and pull on a winter cover and you are ready for the off-season. 

    Calling Puddle for your fall pool care means protecting your pool from the cold, getting the best possible results and getting it all at an affordable rate! Don’t waste your time and energy on an improper closing when you can have an expert handle it for you instead. 

    Uxbridge Pool Closing: Frequently Asked Questions

    When should a pool be closed?

    Once the season is over and temperatures are consistently falling, but before the first hard freeze. Closing too early in warm water can encourage algae to establish under the cover, while leaving it too late risks the freeze damage the closing exists to prevent.

    What does a professional closing include?

    Balancing the water and adding winter treatment, lowering the water to the correct level, blowing out and plugging the lines and draining the pump, filter and heater. Accessories are removed and stored and the cover is fitted. The order matters, which is why it is done as one visit.

    Should the pool be drained completely for winter?

    No, and doing so can cause real damage. Water in the pool is part of what holds the structure in place against ground pressure, and an empty pool can shift or lift. The water level is lowered rather than emptied, which is a different thing.

    Does a safety cover need anything over winter?

    It is worth clearing heavy accumulations of leaves, snow or standing water where you can do so safely from the edge, since sustained weight shortens a cover's life and stresses its anchors. Never walk on a cover to do it. If something looks wrong, it is better checked than guessed at.

    What is a plumbing blow out?

    It uses high volume air to clear water out of the underground lines, so there is nothing left in them to freeze and crack the pipes over winter.
