Winter Pool Maintenance Tips

Taking care of your pool now will save you money once it’s time to use it again during the summer or spring. Also, maintaining your pool during the winter will prevent damages from freezing or water contamination. Here are some pool maintenance tips to help protect your pool, so it’s ready to use in the coming months.

Pool Covers

Bakersfield is not the place where you’ll see tons of snow, but that doesn’t mean that pool covers are obsolete. Adding a pool cover will protect your pool from not only snow or harsh weather conditions but stray animals too.

• Take out the debris and shake off any excess water from pool cover first.
• Make sure your winter pool cover is secured correctly.

Pool Parts

We forget all about our pool equipment and parts during the colder months. It’s important to maintain and check your pool tools, even in Bakersfield.

• You want to check your heater, pool pump, and filter every once and awhile to make sure all is working the right way. It will cost you more money down the road to replace tools if you don’t routinely check them for functionality.

• When you check your pool tools, make sure you remove any and all excess water from inside. Cold or freezing water can cause internal water damage and even pipes to combust.
