Close it too soon:
The chemicals you added to winterize your pool may not last as long when warm fall days heat up the water, causing algae and other microorganisms to grow. Plus, most pool chemicals are consumed much faster in hotter temperatures.
Wait too long:
The first freeze can cause water to freeze in plumbing lines and equipment – bad news if your pool is not winterized.
In the Midwest:
Typically, temperatures dip consistently to the 60’s in late September – October, which make those months a great time to winterize and close your pool.
In warmer climates:
What if you live in California, Florida, or Texas?
Generally, if you don’t plan to use your pool during the winter, winterizing it is a good idea. Winterizing your pool protects it from damage freezing water causes.
Cold snaps happen. It’s far less costly to winterize your pool than have major repairs.
