We close the pool when fall is over and winter starts to look bad. The first step to closing a pool is to drink water. First you need to make sure the pH gets close to 7.5. Otherwise, add a small amount of dry acid.
You should also check for chlorine and use winter products within a few months to make sure the pool is protected from algae and the pump lasts about 6 years in the winter. It prevents algae from settling for several hours. Also check for leaks, remove the squeegee and submerge water about 6 inches below the squeegee.
In this way, you can fill the pool with the required amount of water. If using a summer cover, remove the cover and, if necessary, wash thoroughly with clean water and a pressure washer. After thoroughly cleaning the blanket, put it in the building or garage and unpack the winter blanket.
When installing a winter pool cover, make sure to cover it well to prevent it from sliding down. You may have tightened the cap, but tighten the cap every few days. Remind family and friends that swimming pools are closed in winter and can't be stuck.
Pool covers are used to protect the pool and water, but not for protection. Do not place animals or people on blankets. When you're done using the blanket, it's time to replace it.
Water must be removed from the pump, heater and filter. All of them must have a drain plug near the floor so that the water can drain easily. Don't forget this as water can freeze inside the unit
