Why Is Pool Closing Important During the Winter Season?

The winter season can be particularly harsh on pools. Freezing temperatures can cause water to expand, leading to potential damage to the pool structure and equipment. By closing a pool for winter, you protect it from damage. In addition, a properly closed pool is easier to reopen when summer comes. There’s no need for extensive cleaning or repairs, meaning you can dive back into your swimming activities without delay.

Why Should You Opt for Pool Cleaning Packages During Winter?

While it may seem counterintuitive to invest in pool cleaning packages during the winter season, there are several reasons why it can be beneficial for pool owners. Here are a few reasons why you should consider opting for pool cleaning packages during the winter:

  • Prevents Damage From Freezing Temperatures – Freezing temperatures can cause water in your pool to expand, potentially damaging the pool structure and equipment. Regular maintenance and cleaning during winter can prevent this and save you from costly future repairs.
  • Maintains Water Quality – Even though you may not be using your pool during winter, it’s still important to maintain its water quality. Without regular cleaning and chemical treatments, bacteria and algae can grow in your pool, making it unsafe for use once summer comes.
  • Saves Time and Effort – Winter pool maintenance can be time-consuming and physically demanding, especially if you have a large or complex pool system. By hiring a professional pool cleaning service, you can save yourself the time and effort needed to maintain your pool during the winter months.

Millennium Pools & Spas Pool Closing Process

We follow a comprehensive process to ensure that your pool is protected and ready for the colder months. Here are the pool closing steps we take:

  • Remove Debris – Before draining your pool, we make sure to remove any debris from the surface and bottom of the pool to prevent clogging the pool’s drainage system.
  • Drain Pool – Once the chemicals have been balanced and debris removed; we drain your pool using a submersible pump.
  • Winterize Equipment – After draining the pool, we winterize all equipment, including pumps, filters, heaters, and chlorinators. This involves cleaning and removing any excess water from these systems.
  • Add Winterizing Chemicals – Once all the equipment has been winterized, we add winterizing chemicals to the pool to help prevent algae and bacteria growth during the winter.
  • Covering the Pool – The final step in winterizing your pool is covering it with a winter pool cover. This cover protects the pool from debris, harsh weather conditions, and sunlight.
