We've Been Protecting Long Island Pools for Years

JAS Aquatics has been serving Brookhaven and Long Island pool owners as a leading pool construction and maintenance company. We understand exactly what Long Island winters do to pools.

From our Huntington Station location, we’ve winterized hundreds of pools across Nassau and Suffolk Counties. We know which equipment fails first, which chemicals work best in our climate, and how to install covers that actually stay put through winter storms.

When you’ve built, renovated, and maintained pools for years, you learn what works and what doesn’t. That experience shows up in how your pool looks when we open it next spring.

Pool Closing Process Brookhaven

Here's Exactly What We Do to Your Pool

We start with thorough cleaning and debris removal, then balance your water chemistry for Long Island’s winter storage conditions. Every piece of equipment gets properly shut down – pumps, filters, heaters, automation systems.

Next comes the critical step most people skip: we blow out every plumbing line with compressed air. No water left anywhere means no freeze damage when temperatures drop.

We lower your pool to the proper winter level, winterize all fittings, and install your cover with correct tensioning. Everything gets secured properly so winter storms don’t undo our work.

Schedule your pool closing when water temperatures consistently stay below 65°F, typically mid to late October in Brookhaven. Waiting too long risks unexpected freeze damage if an early cold snap hits. The key is timing it right – too early and you might deal with algae growth, too late and you risk freeze damage. We monitor local weather patterns and can recommend the best timing for your specific situation. Most Brookhaven pool owners schedule between mid-October and early November, depending on the year’s weather patterns and their pool usage.
Improper winterization can cost thousands in repairs. Frozen water expands and cracks pipes, damages pump motors, destroys filter housings, and can even crack pool surfaces. We regularly see spring repair bills of $2,000-$5,000 from pools that were just “covered up” instead of properly winterized. Burst pipes are especially common and expensive to fix. Chemical imbalances over winter also cause surface staining and algae growth that requires professional treatment to resolve. Proper winterization prevents all these problems.
Yes, we handle complete winterization for both pool types throughout Brookhaven and Suffolk County. The process differs significantly between the two, but both need professional attention. Inground pools require complex plumbing blow-outs and equipment winterization. Above ground pools need careful skimmer winterization and proper cover installation, plus they’re actually more vulnerable to freeze damage since their equipment is more exposed. Regardless of your pool type, we have the right equipment and Long Island experience to winterize it properly for our harsh winters.
We use a specific winterization chemical program designed for Long Island’s winter conditions. This includes shock treatment to eliminate bacteria and organic matter, algaecide to prevent algae growth during the closed season, and stain prevention chemicals. The chemical balance has to be perfect for winter storage – wrong pH levels cause surface damage, insufficient sanitizer allows algae growth, and improper alkalinity leads to equipment corrosion. Our chemical program is formulated specifically for pools that will sit closed for 5-6 months through Long Island winters, not the generic approaches that work in milder climates.
Pool closing costs vary based on pool size, type, and specific winterization needs. Inground pools typically cost more to winterize than above-ground pools due to more complex equipment and plumbing systems. The investment in proper winterization pays for itself by preventing expensive spring repairs. We’ve seen pool owners spend thousands on freeze damage repairs that proper winterization would have prevented completely. Contact us for an accurate quote based on your specific pool and equipment setup. We’ll explain exactly what’s included and why each step matters for Long Island conditions.
Pool winterization requires specialized equipment and knowledge that most homeowners don’t have. Professional-grade air compressors for line blow-outs, specific chemical formulations for Long Island winters, and experience with different equipment types. The biggest risk is incomplete winterization – missing one step or doing it incorrectly can result in thousands in damage. We see DIY winterization failures regularly, especially with plumbing blow-outs and equipment shut-downs. For the cost difference between professional winterization and potential repair bills, most Brookhaven pool owners find professional service is the smarter investment.
