We are lucky to live in the great state of Texas, where we don’t have to worry about cooler temperatures for quite a while. And, even though we don’t technically have “winter”, it is important to begin the process of pool winterization NOW. While some Austinites rarely use their pool during the cooler months, that doesn’t mean they don’t want it ready on that one January day when the temperature reaches 70 degrees.

At the same time, we are often asked:

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version=”3.17.6″ quote_icon_background_color=”#f5f5f5″]

“If I’m going to use my pool year-round, why should I winterize it?”

Our answer is simple:

“The temperature will likely fall below freezing at some point (usually several times) during the winter months, which could cause your pipes to freeze, causing major issues. Taking the time to partially winterize your swimming pool will save money on utility expenses, pool supplies, and pool maintenance.”

Here are some tips for winterizing your Central Texas pool:

Remove all dirt, leaves, and other debris from your skimmer baskets
Clean your filter
Check your pump to ensure it is in working order; consider adding a freeze sensor that will start your equipment when the temperature falls below freezing
Check your pH, alkalinity and calcium hardness levels and adjust to correct levels
After balancing your levels, shock the pool with either chlorine or non-chlorine pool shock

While it may seem like a good idea to winterize your inground pool yourself to save some money, if done improperly, damages to your pump or heater can cost anywhere from $400 to $1,000. It is always a good idea to hire a licensed pool professional to be certain that the winterizing process is done right. Crystal Clear Pools and Spas at (512) 339-9304 and ask about our winterization packages. We will take care of everything, so all you have to do is swim, relax, and enjoy!

Your swimming pool should bring you relaxation.

Your swimming pool should bring you joy.

Your swimming pool should bring on the fun.

For many people, their swimming pool is more guilt than relaxing, joyful, or fun.

They feel guilt because they know they should skim the pool or check the chemicals or figure out how to fix their pool pumps.

The only kind of guilt pool owners have about their pools once they’ve hired Crystal Clear Pools and Spas is knowing it’s their guilty pleasure.
