Closing your pool properly is an investment that pays for itself. With Watercrafters, you get peace of mind knowing your pool is protected through winter so you can dive into a clean, worry-free start next spring.

❄️ Freeze Damage = Expensive Repairs

When water is left in your pipes and equipment, freezing winter temperatures can cause them to burst. Repairs to pumps, filters, heaters, and underground lines often run into the hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

🦠 Algae Blooms and Stained Surfaces

Leaving water untreated all winter is an open invitation for algae growth. By spring, you could be facing a green swamp instead of a clear pool along with stained plaster or liners that require costly cleaning or replacement.

🛠️ Equipment Wear and Tear

Without proper winterization, pumps and filters are left vulnerable to rust, cracking, and breakdown. Many homeowners are forced to replace equipment early because of improper closing.

💸 Higher Opening Costs in Spring

What seems like a shortcut in fall can backfire when it’s time to open. Clearing cloudy water, treating algae, and repairing freeze damage can easily cost 2–3 times more than a professional closing.
