Tips For Closing Your Swimming Pool For The Season
Believe it or not, summer is coming to a close. Labor day is next week, and pretty soon pool owners are going to need to close their swimming pools for the season. Closing a swimming pool for the season is not necessarily difficult; however, many pool owners get it wrong every single year. Keep reading for a few tips on how to close your swimming pool for the season!
Use A Vacuum and Brush To Clean Your Pool
Before you can close your swimming, you need to rid it of all dirt and debris. If you want to prevent growth algae from growing the winter, you can’t skip this step. Also, it is going to be significantly more difficult to open your swimming pool the following spring. You want to be sure that you brush the floor and sides of your swimming pool.
Testing The Pool Water
When closing a swimming pool for the season, you want to make sure that the water is balanced correctly. The alkalinity should be between 7.4 and 7.6. You can test your pool water using test strips to ensure your water is within this range. If your pool water is not balanced correctly, it is susceptible to corrosion.
Shocking Your Swimming Pool
It is a good idea to shock your swimming pool water the day before you close it for the season. A large quantity of sanitizer will help to prevent algae from forming during the pool offseason.
