    Wantagh Pool Opening: Frequently Asked Questions

    When is it safe to open a pool in Wantagh?

    At the Wantagh Cedar Creek station the median last spring freeze falls around April 3 and average highs reach about 69.6F in May, according to NOAA 1991 to 2020 normals. That gives a long freeze free window of about 221 days, so many owners plan openings once late spring warmth settles in.

    Can Wantagh water stain a pool when filling?

    Liberty's Wantagh report notes that iron is filtered at three well locations in the district. Iron in fill water can cause staining, so an opening visit checks the water and the surface after a fill.

    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.
