If you choose to keep your pool closed during the winter months, hopefully you have had a chance to reopen for “business”! That includes a beginning of the season cleaning to remove dirt, leaves and other debris. 

Inspection is also an important step in pool summer prep. So remember to check to make sure that your pool equipment – including your pump, filter and skimmer basket – is all in proper working order.

The assurance of pool safety is imperative too, especially if you have young children. Make certain the pool around your fence and gate are secure and in good shape. For added protection, you might also consider installing a pool alarm or safety netting.

Additionally, it is a good idea to shock your pool water with a healthy dose of chlorine at the beginning of the summer pool season. Shocking your pool can kill any algae and bacteria which can accumulate. Then continue to properly disinfect and sanitize your pool throughout the season. 

A regular cleaning routine should include daily skimming of pool water surface, cleaning your pool’s filter and vacuuming pool walls.
