As summer starts to slowly come to an end, it’s time to think about when you want to close your pool for the winter. Depending on where you live, the climate will be a good indicator, as well as if you have children heading back to school and less usage.

When figuring out when to close, it’s best to do so when the temperatures start to stay below 65 degrees to avoid algae growth, which likes the heat.

When the time comes to set a date and winterize, it’s important to properly close your pool to avoid damage and unnecessary repairs. Proper closing also ensures protecting the integrity of your pool and making it easier to open next swim season.

Follow these steps to properly close your pool and winterize.
