Pool Winterization
Proper closing procedures to protect your pool from freezing temperatures.
Protect Your Investment
Midwest winters are harsh on pools. Improperly closing your pool can lead to cracked pipes, damaged equipment, and a costly mess in the spring. Let the professionals handle your winterization.
- Blowing out all plumbing lines
- Adding winterizing chemicals
- Secure winter cover installation
The Dangers of Improper Winterization
In Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan, freezing temperatures are guaranteed. If water is left in your plumbing lines, pump, heater, or filter, it will freeze and expand. This expansion cracks PVC pipes, splits heater headers, and destroys pump housings.
A professional winterization is the cheapest insurance policy you can buy for your pool. We ensure every drop of water is blown out of the system so you don't face thousands of dollars in repairs come spring.
