Pool Opening & Closing Services
Professional pool opening and closing to protect your investment year-round.
Why Proper Opening and Closing Matters
Even in Antioch, CA, pool owners often close their pools during the cooler months or when they are not using them regularly. Proper opening and closing protects your equipment, prevents damage, and saves you money on repairs.
When you close your pool incorrectly, algae can grow, pipes can crack from freezing temperatures, and equipment can corrode. When you open it wrong, you might face murky water, broken pumps, or expensive chemical treatments to fix problems that could have been avoided.
We handle both pool opening and closing services for homeowners who want to do it right. Our technicians follow a detailed checklist to make sure everything is done properly. You get peace of mind knowing your pool is protected when it is not in use and ready to swim when you open it back up.
Pool Opening Service
When it is time to start swimming again, we get your pool ready fast. Here is what our pool opening service includes:
- ✓Remove and clean your pool cover
- ✓Reconnect and start up all equipment (pump, filter, heater)
- ✓Inspect equipment for winter damage or needed repairs
- ✓Remove debris and vacuum the pool bottom
- ✓Test and balance water chemistry completely
- ✓Shock the pool to kill any algae or bacteria
- ✓Reinstall ladders, diving boards, and accessories
- ✓Run the system and check for leaks or issues
After we open your pool, the water might take a day or two to clear up completely. We recommend scheduling your opening a week before you plan to swim so everything is perfect when you are ready. If your pool is particularly dirty after winter, you might also want our one-time deep pool cleaning for a thorough refresh.
Pool Closing Service
Closing your pool correctly protects it from winter weather and keeps it in good condition until you open it again. Here is what we do during a pool closing:
- ✓Balance water chemistry to prevent algae growth
- ✓Add winterizing chemicals for long-term protection
- ✓Lower water level to proper closing height
- ✓Blow out and plug plumbing lines to prevent freezing
- ✓Remove and store ladders, diving boards, and accessories
- ✓Drain and winterize pump, filter, and heater
- ✓Install and secure your winter cover properly
- ✓Final inspection to ensure everything is protected
Proper closing prevents expensive freeze damage to pipes and equipment. It also keeps your pool cleaner during the off-season, so opening in spring is easier and faster.
Even if you do not close your pool every year, having it inspected before winter is a good idea. Our pool inspection services can spot potential problems before they turn into costly repairs.
