When Should You Close Your Pool?

The right closing window makes a real difference. We recommend scheduling once the temperature drops or leaves start falling, ideally once water reaches about 55 degrees. At that point, algae growth slows, and you’re unlikely to swim again before spring, making it the practical sweet spot.

Don’t wait for the first frost. Leaves and debris left in an open pool late in the season can clog filtration and give algae a foothold over the off-season. Closing on time can mean a cleaner, healthier pool waiting for you come spring.

What’s Included in Our Customizable Pool Closing Plans

Every pool is different, so our customizable pool closing plans are built around what your pool actually needs. The goal is clean chemistry, drained equipment, and a secure cover before the first freeze hits.

Our closing visits typically cover:

• Debris removal: Removing all debris from the pool’s water, filter, and skimmer so nothing breaks down over winter
• Water level adjustment: Readjusting the water level to the appropriate off-season mark
• Winter chemical treatment: Testing water and adding chemicals for the winter, including algaecide to help keep the water clean through the off-season
• Equipment draining: Draining equipment of excess water to prevent freezing and reduce the chance of cracked fittings
• Winter cover installation: Inspecting and installing a winter cover to help keep debris out and the pool protected

Water chemistry matters at closing because the filter won’t be running to maintain balance over the off-season. We aim to leave your pool with a chlorine level of 1-3 ppm and a pH of 7.2 to 7.6 at closing. We also recommend shocking the pool a few days before we arrive so chlorine levels return to normal before the pool is actually closed.

Why Westchester’s Freeze-Thaw Winters Demand a Proper Closing

Westchester County winters don’t stay cold and stay there. Temperatures swing above and below freezing repeatedly through January and February, and that freeze-thaw cycle stresses plumbing fittings, pool shells, and equipment more than a single hard freeze would. Any moisture left in lines or equipment can become a problem when temperatures dip again.

Improperly closing a pool can require repairing or replacing vital equipment when reopening it in the spring. A cracked pump housing or split plumbing line discovered in May can be a costly way to start the season. Getting the closing right the first time is a straightforward way to help reduce that risk.
