How We Winterize Your Pool Right

First, we thoroughly clean your pool and remove all debris. Clean water balances easier and prevents staining issues during the closed season. Then we balance your water chemistry specifically for Long Island’s winter storage conditions.

Next comes equipment shutdown and winterization. Every piece gets properly protected – pumps, filters, heaters, automation systems. We blow out every single plumbing line with compressed air because even a small amount of trapped water can destroy your entire circulation system when it freezes.

We lower your pool to the proper winter level, winterize all fittings, and install your cover with correct tensioning and securing. You get a complete checklist showing exactly what we did to protect your investment through winter.

What's Included in Professional Closing

Our winterization covers everything your pool needs to survive Woodbury’s harsh winters. We use a specific chemical program designed for Long Island conditions – shock treatment to eliminate bacteria, algaecide to prevent growth during the closed season, and stain prevention chemicals to protect your surfaces.

All equipment gets systematically winterized and protected. Inground pools get complex plumbing blow-outs and equipment winterization. Above ground pools receive careful skimmer winterization and proper cover installation – they’re actually more vulnerable to freeze damage since their plumbing is often more exposed.

The timing matters too. We typically schedule Woodbury closings in mid to late October when nighttime temperatures consistently drop below 50 degrees. Too early wastes swimming time. Too late risks freeze damage from unexpected cold snaps.

When should I schedule my pool closing in Woodbury, NY?

The best time for pool closing in Woodbury 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. Once temperatures hit freezing, any water left in your plumbing lines can cause expensive damage overnight. 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 Woodbury pools should be winterized by Halloween to be safe.
Freeze damage happens fast and gets expensive quickly. 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 homeowners face thousands in repairs from a single freeze cycle – cracked skimmers, destroyed pumps, burst plumbing lines. The most expensive mistakes happen when people try partial DIY winterization. Professional winterization costs a few hundred dollars, while fixing winterization mistakes often costs thousands.
We don’t recommend partial DIY winterization because pool closing is a system – every step depends on the others being done correctly. The most expensive mistakes happen when homeowners try to save money by doing part of the winterization themselves. For example, improper chemical balancing can cause staining and surface damage that costs thousands to repair. Incomplete plumbing blow-out can result in freeze damage that destroys your entire circulation system. Even small mistakes like incorrect water level or improper cover installation can cause major problems.
Yes, we winterize both types, but the process is different for each. 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 Woodbury’s harsh winters.
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. The chemical balance has to be just right for winter storage. Too little protection and you’ll face algae blooms and staining. Too much of the wrong chemicals can damage your liner or surfaces. Our technicians know exactly what your pool needs based on its type, size, and condition.
Absolutely. You get a complete winterization checklist showing exactly what we did to protect your investment. This documentation is valuable for warranty purposes and helps our technicians when we return for your spring opening. The checklist covers every step of our 12-step process – chemical balancing, equipment shutdown, plumbing blow-out, water level adjustment, fitting winterization, and cover installation. You’ll know exactly what was done and when, giving you complete peace of mind through the winter months.
