Pool Closing & Winterization
Book your winter pool closure now
Professional winterization helps protect your pool and equipment from costly winter damage.
When colder weather arrives, water left in pool plumbing can freeze, expand and crack pipes, filters, pumps and other equipment. Inadequately winterized equipment can also suffer costly damage, while poor chemical preparation may lead to algae growth, staining and difficult water recovery when the pool reopens. Poolwerx can professionally prepare your pool for winter, helping protect your investment until it's time to reopen in spring.
Professional winter pool care
Depending on your pool, equipment and local conditions, your Poolwerx pool closure may include:
Chemical preparation – balancing and treating your pool water to help protect it during the closed season
Equipment shutdown – switching off and preparing pool equipment for winter
Line clearing – removing water from plumbing lines to help reduce the risk of freeze damage
Pool covering – fitting and securing a suitable cover to help protect your pool through the colder months
Your local Poolwerx team will recommend the appropriate winterization process for your individual pool.
Protect your pool with the right winter cover
A quality winter pool cover is an important part of protecting your pool once it has been professionally closed. The right cover can help:
Keep leaves, branches and winter debris out of your pool
Protect the pool from harsh seasonal conditions
Reduce the amount of cleaning and maintenance required when spring arrives
Limit sunlight reaching the water, helping reduce algae growth during the closed season
Create a safer backyard environment by helping prevent accidental access by children, pets and wildlife
Different pools and climates may require different cover solutions. Mesh winter safety covers can allow rain and melted snow to drain through while helping keep debris out, while solid covers provide a more complete barrier against sunlight, dirt and debris.
Not sure if your current cover is right for another winter?
Ask your local Poolwerx team to check your existing pool cover as part of your winter closure, or speak to us about winter cover options suitable for your pool.
