From the Pros
Pool Closing FAQs
Closing your pool properly before winter is essential to prevent freeze damage and make spring opening easier. Below are answers to the most common pool closing questions from homeowners across the Niagara Region. From timing and what’s included to winter covers and plumbing protection, our professional pool closing service ensures your pool is safely winterized and ready for the off-season.
WHEN SHOULD I CLOSE MY POOL IN NIAGARA?
We recommend closing your pool when temperatures consistently drop below 15°C (60°F), typically late September through October. Closing too early can lead to algae growth, while closing at the right time keeps your water cleaner over winter.
WHAT DOES A POOL CLOSING INCLUDE?
Our pool closing service includes lowering the water level, blowing out plumbing lines, installing winter plugs, draining equipment, winterizing the system, and installing your winter cover.
DO I NEED A WINTER COVER?
Yes. A proper winter cover helps keep debris out, protects your liner, and improves water quality for spring opening. Safety covers and traditional winter covers are both effective when installed correctly.
WHAT HAPPENS IF MY POOL IS NOT CLOSED PROPERLY?
Improper closings can cause frozen pipes, cracked skimmers, damaged equipment, liner damage, and costly spring repairs. Professional winterization prevents these issues.
DO YOU ADD WINTER CHEMICALS?
Yes, we can add winterizing chemicals to help prevent algae growth and keep water cleaner throughout the off-season.
HDO I NEED TO BE HOME FOR THE POOL CLOSING?
No. As long as we have access to the pool area and equipment, we can complete the pool closing without you being home.
HOW LONG DOES A POOL CLOSING TAKE?
Most pool closings take 1 to 2 hours depending on pool size, cover type, and equipment configuration.
DO YOU INSTALL SAFETY COVERS?
Yes. We install both safety covers and traditional winter covers as part of our pool closing service.
