Our Pool Closing Process

Pool closing requires systematic winterization procedures using proven protocols and comprehensive equipment knowledge to ensure complete protection from Pennsylvania’s harsh winter conditions. Our methodical approach addresses all system components and environmental factors that affect pool condition during extended winter storage.

Equipment Shutdown and Winterization

Pool closing begins with systematic equipment shutdown using manufacturer-recommended procedures that protect pumps, heaters, filters, and electrical systems from winter damage. We drain equipment properly, apply antifreeze where needed, and store removable components in protected environments. Equipment winterization includes lubrication, inspection, and documentation of maintenance needs.

Water Treatment and Chemical Balance

Professional water treatment establishes proper chemical balance for extended storage while preventing algae growth, surface staining, and equipment corrosion during winter months. We add winterizing chemicals, adjust pH and alkalinity, and ensure proper sanitizer levels that maintain water quality throughout storage. Chemical treatment includes shock treatment and specialized winter additives.

Plumbing System Protection

Complete winterization includes comprehensive plumbing protection through proper water removal, blow-out procedures, and antifreeze application in lines that cannot be completely drained. We protect skimmers, returns, equipment connections, and underground plumbing from freeze damage using proven techniques and appropriate materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I schedule pool closing in Pennsylvania?

Most pools in the Dallas, PA area should be closed between mid-October and early November, depending on water temperature and weather forecasts. Scheduling closing before the first hard freeze protects equipment and plumbing from damage while ensuring proper winterization before harsh weather arrives.

What happens if I wait too long to close my pool?

Delayed closing risks freeze damage to equipment and plumbing that can result in expensive repairs and spring startup problems. Once temperatures consistently drop below 50°F, equipment efficiency decreases and freeze damage becomes increasingly likely, especially for exposed plumbing and equipment components.

Do I need to drain my pool completely for winter?

No, pools should maintain proper water levels that support the structure while protecting skimmers and returns from freeze damage. Complete drainage can cause structural problems from ground pressure and frost heaving. Professional closing maintains optimal water levels with proper chemical treatment for winter protection.
