The seasons are changing and another fantastic summer by the pool is coming to a close. As you prepare your home, lawn, and wardrobe for a new season, pay close attention to the needs of your pool as well. The Pool Guys, servicing the greater Troy, MO, area, specialize in pool repair in all seasons.

Here are three helpful tips to prepare your pool for the fall season from these expert pool contractors:

• Clean: Once summer comes to a close, your first pool preparation step is to thoroughly clean it, clearing out any debris, dust, and leaves. Since your pool won’t be used for several months, eliminate any items that may cause bacteria to grow. If you’re concerned about the cleanliness of your pool, hire a professional pool repair company to perform a thorough end-of-season cleaning.
• Cover: Once your pool is perfectly clean, protect it with a high-quality pool cover. Make certain the pool cover does not have any rips or tears that will allow debris to enter the pool during the cold season. If dead leaves and debris start to build up on top of your pool cover, clear it off regularly.
• Monitor: While you may not think about your pool when it’s not in use, you should still monitor its condition throughout the fall and winter seasons. Check weekly to make sure your pool cover is still intact, and speak to a pool repair professional about the chemicals and treatments you should be using to ensure your pool stays healthy, balanced, and free of mold and bacteria.
