Pool Winterization Hampton Virginia

At Fox Pools LLC our pool winterization service prepares a swimming pool for the winter months ahead when it will not be in use. This process is essential to protect the pool and its equipment from damage caused by freezing temperatures, debris, and other winter conditions. Proper pool winterization helps ensure that the pool will be in good condition when it’s time to reopen it in the spring.

How Does Pool Winterization Work?

Our pool winterization service includes cleaning the pool of any debris, brushing the walls and floor of the pool to prevent algae growth, and a thorough vacuum of the pool. Once the pool is clean, we will balance the water chemistry by adjusting the water’s PH, alkalinity and calcium levels to the recommended ranges. Once the water chemistry has been adjusted, we lower the water level below the skimmer to prevent damage from freezing water. Additionally, we will add a winterizing chemical kit, which typically includes algaecide, chlorine, and a winter stain and scale preventer.

Our final steps to winterization include properly draining water from the pump, filter, heater and any other pool equipment. We will protect the plumbing by using an air compressor to remove any remaining water to prevent water from freezing and causing damage. Finally, we install a winter pool cover to keep out debris and sunlight to help prevent algae growth.

Protect your investment from winter damage and make the opening process in the spring much smoother. Proper winterization extends the life of the pool and its equipment, saving time and money on repairs and maintenance.
