Closing your pool for the off-season and properly winterizing it is the most important thing you can do to ensure a smooth opening next season, and for seasons to come.  

So the weather is cooler and the pool is closed -- time to forget about it until the Spring right?   Well, not exactly. Offseason maintenance is crucial to avoiding unpleasant surprises and costly damage when it’s time to open your pool again. Not only that, securing your pool can add an extra layer of security to keep your family and pets safe while they enjoy the yard during fall and winter.

The incoming fall brings in a few things -- like cooler air, earlier sunsets, and the unfortunate reality of having to close your pool for the season. Believe it or not, this stage is one of the most impactful when it comes to the longevity of your pool.

Your pool’s liner is one of the fundamental parts of your pool. Treat it right and it will stay in good shape for years to come. Neglect it, however, and it will need to be repaired or replaced.
