As the warm swimming season winds down in San Diego, it is essential to properly close your pool to protect your investment and ensure it remains in excellent condition during the cooler months. Best Pool – San Diego Pool Design & Build offers expert pool closing services for residential, municipal, and commercial in-ground pools throughout Southern California. Our professional approach to pool closing guarantees that your pool is ready for a smooth and easy reopening when the warm weather returns.
A pool is a valuable investment, and closing it properly for the off-season is crucial for maintaining its integrity and functionality. Even in the relatively mild San Diego climate, winter elements can negatively impact your pool if not prepared properly. Issues such as freezing temperatures, debris buildup, and chemical imbalances can cause damage to both your pool’s structure and its equipment. Hiring a professional pool closing service like Best Pool ensures that your pool is safeguarded from these risks, helping you avoid costly repairs and ensuring a stress-free pool opening when spring arrives.
At Best Pool – San Diego Pool Design & Build, we provide thorough pool closing services designed to protect every part of your pool, from the surface to the essential mechanical components. By winterizing your pool effectively, we help maintain the longevity of your pool and its equipment, minimizing problems that can arise from improper winterization.
Our pool closing services include a complete checklist to make sure every aspect of your pool is properly prepared for winter. We focus on both physical and chemical preparation, covering every necessary step to protect your pool from potential winter hazards. Below is a detailed list of what is included in our professional pool closing service:
Removal of Deck Equipment: We carefully remove all deck equipment, including ladders, handrails, and lights. Please note that we do not remove diving boards due to liability concerns, but we will secure and cover them as needed.
Skimmer Basket and Return Eyeball Removal: Removing skimmer baskets and return eyeballs is essential to protect the pool’s circulation system. By removing these components, we prevent potential damage that can be caused by residual water freezing and expanding within the equipment.
Blowout of Water Lines: Using an air compressor, we blow out all pool-related water lines. This step is crucial to prevent freezing damage, as any water left in the pipes could freeze and expand, leading to cracks and leaks. Additionally, antifreeze is added where needed to offer an extra level of protection, particularly in vulnerable areas.
Winterizing Pool Equipment: Proper winterization of all pool equipment, including the filter, pumps, heater, and chlorinator, is a core component of our pool closing service. We drain each piece of equipment to ensure no residual water is left that could cause damage during the off-season. Winterizing these parts helps prolong their lifespan and ensures they function smoothly when it’s time to open your pool again.
Addition of Winter Chemicals: Maintaining proper chemical balance during the winter months is essential for keeping your pool in good condition. We add specific winter chemicals such as non-chlorine shock, winter algaecide, and a mineral control agent to ensure the water remains clean and algae-free, preventing staining and buildup during the off-season.
Attempting to close your pool on your own can be overwhelming, especially if you are unfamiliar with the specific requirements for effectively winterizing your equipment and pool structure. Improper closing can lead to damage, unexpected repair costs, and a more challenging opening process when you’re ready to use your pool again.
