When should I schedule pool closing in Little Plains, NY?

The best time for pool closing in Little Plains and Nassau County is typically mid to late October, when nighttime temperatures consistently drop below 50 degrees. You don’t want to close too early and waste swimming time, but you also can’t wait until the first freeze. We recommend scheduling your closing by early October to ensure availability, since this is our busiest time. If you have a pool heater, you might be able to extend the season slightly, but most Long Island pools should be winterized by Halloween to be safe. Once temperatures hit freezing, any water left in your plumbing lines can cause expensive damage overnight.

What happens if my pool isn't properly winterized before freezing weather?

Freeze damage happens fast and gets expensive quickly in Little Plains. Water expands when it freezes, so any water left in your plumbing lines, pump, filter, or heater can crack pipes, destroy equipment, and damage your pool structure. We’ve seen single freeze events cause thousands in damage – cracked pump housings, burst plumbing lines, damaged pool surfaces, and destroyed filtration equipment. Even worse, this damage often isn’t visible until spring when you try to open your pool. Insurance typically doesn’t cover freeze damage from improper winterization, so you’re looking at major out-of-pocket repairs. Proper winterization costs a fraction of what freeze damage repairs will run you.

How long does professional pool closing take in Little Plains?

A complete professional pool closing typically takes 2-4 hours, depending on your pool size, equipment complexity, and current condition. Simple above ground pools might be done in 2 hours, while large inground pools with extensive equipment, water features, or automation systems can take 4 hours or more. We don’t rush the process because every step matters for proper winterization. This includes time for chemical balancing, thorough cleaning, complete equipment shutdown, plumbing blow-out with compressed air, water level adjustment, and proper cover installation. If we find any equipment issues or maintenance needs during the closing, that can add time but it’s better to address problems now than deal with expensive damage in spring.

Can I partially winterize my pool myself to save money?

We don’t recommend partial DIY winterization because pool closing is a system – every step depends on the others being done correctly. Most people think pool closing means draining water and putting on a cover, but that’s not winterization – that’s how you destroy a pool. We’ve seen countless filters completely cracked and destroyed because someone tried to close the pool themselves and forgot to take out the drain plug. The difference shows up in spring when properly winterized pools open clean with working equipment, while DIY “closed” pools often need hundreds or thousands in repairs before they’re swimmable again. Professional winterization protects your investment and saves money long-term.

What chemicals do you use for pool winterization in Little Plains?

We use a specific winterization chemical program designed for Long Island’s winter conditions. This typically includes shock treatment to eliminate bacteria and organic matter, algaecide to prevent algae growth during the closed season, and stain prevention chemicals to protect your pool surfaces. We also balance your pH, alkalinity, and calcium hardness to prevent corrosion and scaling over the winter months. The exact chemical program depends on your current water condition, pool size, and surface type. We test your water on-site and adjust the chemical treatment accordingly. Using the right chemicals in the right amounts is crucial – too little and you’ll have algae and staining problems, too much and you can damage your pool surfaces.

Do you service both inground and above ground pools in Little Plains?

Yes, we provide professional winterization for both inground and above ground pools throughout Little Plains and Nassau County. The process is different for each type, but both need professional winterization to prevent damage. Inground pools require more complex plumbing blow-outs and equipment winterization, while above ground pools need careful attention to skimmer winterization and proper cover installation. Above ground pools are actually more vulnerable to freeze damage in some ways, since their plumbing and equipment are often more exposed to cold temperatures. Regardless of your pool type, we have the right equipment and experience to winterize it properly for Long Island’s harsh winters.
