🔥 **Your pool needs to breathe this week!** 🔥

Extreme heat causes chlorine to burn off faster, making cloudy or green water much more likely. Keeping an automatic or solar cover closed can also trap excessive heat, which may soften a vinyl liner and increase the risk of shifting or wrinkles.

Please remember to:
💦 Open your pool cover daily
💦 Keep the pump running and water circulating
💦 Check chlorine and pH frequently
💦 Let chemicals circulate before closing the cover

A little extra attention now can help protect your water and your vinyl liner! ☀️

⛈️ CLOSING EARLY TODAY DUE TO SEVERE WEATHER ⛈️

Due to the strong storms and severe weather moving into our area, Backyard Pools will be closing early today.

The safety of our team will always come first. Unfortunately, we do not have a safe place to shelter at the store in the event of a tornado or severe weather, so we want to give our employees plenty of time to get home safely to their families and somewhere they can properly shelter before the worst of the weather arrives.

We truly appreciate everyone’s understanding and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Most importantly, we hope all of our customers, employees, friends, and families stay safe today. Please stay weather-aware and take these storms seriously. ❤️⛈️

Stay safe, everyone!

If you know me, you know how much I love Zimmy’s. ❤️

I grew up there. Some of my favorite childhood memories happened around those tables. As I got older, it became the place I’d take friends and family when they came to town, where Donald and I would stop after the lake or skiing, and where we’d end up after baseball games with the kids.

Now my own babies have grown up there too. The waitresses know them, they know exactly what they want to order, and we’ve celebrated so many ordinary moments there that turned into some of our favorite memories. Zimmy’s has never just been a restaurant to us, it has always felt like home.

Seeing everything they’ve been through has honestly broken my heart. Then hearing that Saturday was so slow because of the weather just didn’t sit right with me. They deserve so much better than that.

So tomorrow, Backyard Pools wants to do a small part to help.

10% of all sales tomorrow will be donated to Zimmy’s Tavern and their staff as they continue to recover and rebuild.

If you need chemicals, supplies, toys, or were planning to stop by anyway, we’d be so grateful if you came in tomorrow. Together, we can help support a place that has given so many of us years of memories, laughter, and comfort.

Thank you for supporting local. It truly means everything. And Zimmy’s, we’re all rooting for you. ❤️
