Pool Opening & Closing Services
Professional seasonal pool opening and closing to protect your investment and ensure your pool is ready when you need it.
Why Proper Opening and Closing Matters
Even in Southern California where winters are mild, many homeowners close their pools during the cooler months when they are not swimming regularly. Properly closing your pool protects equipment, prevents algae growth, and saves you money on chemicals and energy during the off-season.
When spring arrives and you are ready to swim again, opening your pool the right way ensures crystal clear water and fully functional equipment. Our Glendora pool opening and closing service handles all the technical details so you can enjoy your pool without the hassle.
Skipping proper seasonal maintenance often leads to green water, damaged equipment, and expensive repairs. We make sure your pool is protected during the off-season and ready to use when summer comes back around.
What We Do During Pool Closing
Closing your pool is more than just covering it up. We follow a detailed process to protect your pool from algae, freezing damage, and equipment issues during the months you are not using it.
- •Deep clean the pool including walls, floor, and skimmer baskets
- •Balance water chemistry to prevent algae and scale buildup
- •Lower water level to below skimmer and return lines
- •Blow out plumbing lines and add antifreeze to prevent freeze damage
- •Drain and winterize pump, filter, and heater
- •Remove and store pool accessories like ladders and diving boards
- •Install winter cover to keep debris out and reduce maintenance
Proper closing prevents costly damage from freezing temperatures and keeps your pool cleaner during the off-season. When you are ready to swim again, reopening is much easier and faster if the pool was properly closed. If you need any equipment repairs before closing, we can handle that too.
What We Do During Pool Opening
When warm weather returns, we get your pool swim-ready with a complete opening service. Here is what we do:
Remove Cover and Clean Pool
We carefully remove the winter cover, clean off any debris, and store it properly. Then we skim, brush, and vacuum the pool to remove leaves, dirt, and any buildup from the winter months.
Reinstall Equipment
We reconnect and test your pump, filter, heater, and other equipment. We check for leaks, prime the pump, and make sure everything runs smoothly. If we find any issues, we can perform repairs on the spot or schedule a follow-up visit.
Fill and Balance Water
We refill the pool to the proper level and test the water chemistry. We balance pH, alkalinity, calcium hardness, and sanitizer levels to ensure safe swimming conditions. If the water is cloudy or has algae growth, we can provide algae treatment to clear it up quickly.
Final Inspection and Testing
We run the system to confirm proper circulation and heating. We inspect the pool surface for cracks or damage that may have occurred during winter. Once everything checks out, your pool is ready for summer fun. Many customers sign up for our weekly maintenance service to keep their pool in top shape all season long.
