Pool Closing Services for Inground Swimming Pools
Professional pool closing services prepare your pool for winter and help prevent damage by winterizing plumbing lines, protecting equipment, and installing a secure cover.
Time to close your pool for the season?
Our PHTA trained service technicians will ensure your inground pool is properly closed and thoroughly winterized for the harsh winter weather.
Closing your pool requires diligent adherence to each step in the process, and technicians who show up as scheduled, rain or shine.
Winterizing
When we winterize, we perform the following services on every pool:
- Drain pool to proper winterzing level
- Blow out all water from lines and equipment, introduce anti-freeze, plug with customer’s plugs
- Remove handrails, fittings, baskets and all other pool related items
- Properly winterize all pool equipment including pumps, filters, heaters, etc.
- Properly balance and shock pool water, adding a winterizing chemical to prevent algae growth (chemicals not included)
- Install winter cover
Winter Pool Covers

Know your pool is safe & secure for the winter
A winter cover is essential for two reasons: protecting your pool from the elements and creating a safe, secure environment. Winter covers help prevent debris from building up in your pool and safeguard it from unwanted "visitors" — pests, animals and people. Knowing your pool is secured from the harsh winter weather and protected against accidents will give you peace of mind all winter long.
At AAA Pools, we carry a full line of winter pool safety covers, including the following from GLI Pool Products:
- Max Shade Mesh™ Safety Covers
- Promesh™ Safety Covers
- Secur-A-Pool™ Mesh Safety Covers
- Hyperlite™ Solid Safety Covers
