Pool Opening & Closing Services
Start and end your swim season right with professional pool opening and closing.
Professional Pool Opening Service
Opening your pool for swim season involves more than just removing the cover. We do a complete startup that gets your pool crystal clear and perfectly balanced from day one. Many homeowners try opening their pool themselves and end up with cloudy water, equipment problems, or chemistry issues that take weeks to fix properly.
Our pool opening service handles everything correctly the first time. We inspect all equipment, clean every surface, balance the water chemistry, and make sure your circulation system runs perfectly. Your pool will be swim-ready within a few days instead of limping along for weeks while you troubleshoot problems.
What Our Pool Opening Includes:
- •Remove pool cover and clean for storage
- •Inspect all equipment and connections
- •Clean filter and replace filter media if needed
- •Remove winter plugs and reinstall fittings
- •Start circulation system and check for leaks
- •Brush walls, vacuum floor, skim surface
- •Test water chemistry completely
- •Add chemicals to balance and shock pool
- •Return for follow-up check and final adjustments
Professional Pool Closing Service
Closing your pool properly protects your investment during the off-season. Skipping steps or doing them incorrectly leads to expensive problems when spring arrives. Frozen pipes can burst. Algae can take over a poorly treated pool. Equipment left running wastes electricity and suffers unnecessary wear.
In San Luis, some homeowners keep their pools running year-round because of our mild winters. Others close them partially to save on heating and maintenance costs during cooler months. We customize our closing service based on your climate and preferences. Whether you want a full winterization or just reduced operation, we handle it correctly.
What Our Pool Closing Includes:
- •Deep clean pool surfaces and vacuum thoroughly
- •Balance water chemistry for long-term storage
- •Add winterizing chemicals to prevent algae
- •Lower water level to appropriate height
- •Drain and winterize all equipment
- •Blow out plumbing lines and add antifreeze
- •Install winter plugs in all fittings
- •Clean and install pool cover properly
- •Provide winter maintenance instructions
Why Professional Opening and Closing Makes Sense
Pool opening and closing require specific knowledge and experience. You need to know exactly which chemicals to use, when to add them, and in what order. Equipment needs proper preparation to survive months of inactivity or freezing temperatures. Plumbing lines must be blown clear and treated correctly or they crack from ice expansion.
The cost of professional service is tiny compared to repairing burst pipes, replacing damaged equipment, or treating a severely algae-infested pool that was closed improperly. We have seen homeowners spend thousands fixing preventable problems that occurred during DIY opening or closing attempts. Our service protects you from these expensive mistakes.
Most importantly, professional service saves you time and guarantees peace of mind. You do not need to research procedures, buy specialized chemicals, or spend your weekend doing hard physical work. We handle everything efficiently while you focus on other things. After opening your pool, consider our weekly maintenance plans to keep it perfect all season long. We also offer comprehensive pool care services including equipment repairs and deep cleaning when needed.
