Top Tips for Preparing Your Pool for Winter

As summer comes to an end, it’s time to think about properly closing your pool for the winter. Winterizing your pool not only protects it from the colder weather but also makes it easier to get it ready next season. Here are some essential tips for closing your pool:
1. Clean ThoroughlyBefore closing, make sure to remove any debris, brush the walls, and vacuum the pool. This will prevent dirt and algae buildup over the winter months.
2. Balance Your Pool’s ChemistryBalancing pH, alkalinity, and chlorine levels before closing helps prevent staining, scaling, and algae growth while the pool is not in use.
3. Lower the Water LevelReduce the water level below the skimmer line to prevent any freeze damage to your pool’s plumbing.
4. Cover Your Pool SecurelyA good-quality pool cover protects against debris, keeps out pests, and provides extra insulation to keep your pool in top shape through winter.
By following these steps, you’ll make reopening your pool in the spring much easier—and extend the life of your pool. If you’re not sure where to start or need professional assistance, our team at American Pools, LLC is here to help.
