Opening a pool is more than pulling the cover off. The water underneath has sat stagnant for months, the equipment has been idle, and the chemistry is a blank slate. We handle the whole startup so the first swim of the year isn’t followed by a battle with algae. Call (941) 555-0142 to get on the spring schedule.
Book before the first hot stretch — algae wakes up with the water temperature, and a pool that opens late often opens green. Openings matter most for pools that were covered or idle through winter, snowbird homes sitting empty, and rentals gearing up for season. If the pump hasn’t run in months, don’t just flip it on: dry seals and clogged lines can turn a startup into a repair.
We remove and clean the cover, clear the winter debris, and inspect the equipment pad before anything powers on.
Lines get reconnected and primed, the pump and filter restarted, and the system checked for leaks and pressure problems.
Then the real work: a deep clean and a full chemical startup, staged over the first days so the water stabilizes instead of swinging.
You get a photo report and a heads-up on anything — worn seals, tired o-rings — worth fixing before summer.
Cost depends on pool size, how the pool was closed, and what we find when the cover comes off — a clean shutdown reopens cheaper than a neglected one. We quote free and exactly before starting, usually from photos. Many opening customers roll into weekly service for the season; there’s no obligation to.
