Plan to close your Utah pool between late September and mid-October, before nighttime temperatures consistently drop below freezing, and reopen between late April and mid-May once daytime temps hold above 70°F. Utah's winters are hard on pools in between. Proper closing protects your equipment from freeze damage, and a professional opening means you're swimming sooner in spring. Openings and closings are quoted separately from routine service, and winterizing chemicals are billed at cost rather than included.

Common Questions

When should I close my pool for winter?

In Utah, we recommend closing between late September and mid-October, before nighttime temperatures consistently drop below freezing. Book early: fall is our busiest season for closings.

When can I open my pool in spring?

Most Utah pool owners open between late April and mid-May. We recommend opening when daytime temps are consistently above 70°F. Opening too early wastes chemicals; too late invites algae.

What happens if I don't close my pool properly?

Frozen pipes can crack, pumps can be destroyed, and you could face thousands in repair costs. Proper winterization is one of the best investments you can make for your pool.

What's included in the price?

The $240 base rate covers up to a 2-hour on-site window, and $120/hr beyond that for larger or more involved jobs. Winterizing chemicals are billed at cost on top of that, usually around $60, or you're welcome to supply your own. This is the one service where chemicals aren't included the way they are on a routine visit.
