Just about this time of year, you will start to see the orange, brown, and yellow leaves fall into your pool. With fall descending on the northeast, it's time to pack up your summer gear and prepare for winter with help from Gutierrez Pool Plastering.Through their pool renovation and maintenance services, Gutierrez will ensure you’re pool is well-prepped for winter.

With snow, ice, and temperature changes throughout the winter months, it is important to properly protect and winterize your pool. Leaving water in your pool or keeping it uncovered could lead to its destruction.

Ensure that your pool is ready for next spring with these easy tips from Gutierrez Pool Plastering:

• Drain Your Pool: When you disconnect the hoses from the equipment, gravity will force water from your pool and filter. Once drained, take the opportunity to clean out the interior. Algae and bacteria can still grow in your pool if not properly cleaned.
• Dry All Equipment: Storing wet equipment can degrade and destroy it. Be sure that anything that freely floats in your pool, such as ladders, roles, and buoys, are dried before they are stored.
• Cover it: This is a critical step and should be done right. Be sure that no loose ends are visible and that no holes are in the cover. This will prevent you from dealing with algae, clogged filters, and any other unpleasant surprises when you reopen your pool next spring.

Keep these tips in mind when closing up your pool for the winter. Contact the expert pool renovation company at Gutierrez Pool Plastering for everything you need to prepare your pool this season.
