If you own or manage an outdoor swimming pool in northeastern Ohio – private or commercial – you know that all good things must come to an end. The hot days of summer come and go, kids go back to school, leaves begin to change and soon it’s time to close the swimming pool for another season.
Pool closing can be a overwhelming task and is usually best left to a pool professional. It can also take specialized equipment to winterize your pool. Also remember that most of the pool equipment have plugs in them. Heaters like to have hidden ones, so pay close attention to them. And if you don’t close your pool properly, you may damage your pool. This can be a very expensive repair for you if a line breaks. Ask a pool professional to close your pool.
This year, make sure your pool winterization is done professionally by the experts at Aqua Pools Inc. of northeastern Ohio. We’ll handle every detail with our pool closing services so that your pool rests safely over the winter and is ready for action next spring.
