Thinking about closing down your pool for the season? 🍁❄️ Here’s what you need to know about winterizing in Texas:
When is the right time?
In Texas, timing is everything. You don’t want to close your pool too early while temperatures are still floating in the 70s or 80s—warm water without active circulation is an open invitation for algae growth!
The sweet spot? Wait until outdoor temperatures consistently drop below 60°F–65°F. For most North and Central Texas homes, this usually means late October through mid-November.
3 Quick Texas Winterization Tips:
1️⃣ Keep water chemistry balanced: Even if you’re using the pool less, keeping your pH and sanitizer levels in check prevents costly spring cleanups.
2️⃣ Protect against hard freezes: Make sure your freeze protection system is working properly so pumps automatically run when temps dip below freezing.
3️⃣ Clear out debris: Keep skimmer baskets clean and leaf nets active to protect your equipment.
Whether you need a full equipment check, help with freeze protection, or winter maintenance, the team at Elite Custom Pools & Renovations has you covered!
