A Successful Reopening of Your Pool This Springtime
Easter has passed, and springtime is near. While it may not be soon enough for some, it is time to start considering your springtime pool maintenance plan so that your pool’s ready when you are. If you properly closed up your pool at the end of summer, it shouldn’t be too difficult to reopen for the spring and summertime swimming to commence. Here are a few tips to use for your pool maintenance in the springtime and how you can have a successful reopening of the pool.
Pool Cover Maintenance
Before you begin, you need to carefully drain any water or condensation from the pool cover and clean it as well. During the winter months, you’ve probably had leaves and debris fall onto the cover. Melting snow or rain has also collected onto the cover as well. Using a cover pump can get rid of most, if not all, of the water on the cover. Removing the debris yourself will also reduce the chance of those leaves and twigs getting into the pool itself when you take the cover off. This will also make it easy to store your cover for the winter closing of the pool as well.
Check Water Levels
Before starting any of the pool equipment back up, be sure that the water levels in your pool are where they should be. You can easily toss in the hose pipe and refill it to the normal level which is typically around the middle of your skimmer. You want to be sure that your water levels are where they need to be before turning on the equipment as this could cause problems with your pool pump if not.
