POOL CLOSING •

Pool Closing Service in NY

Empire Pools provides complete, step-by-step pool closings in — not “blow air for five minutes and leave.” We winterize the plumbing and equipment so freeze damage doesn’t happen, and we close your water the right way so you don’t open to algae, stains, or a swamp. Every closing starts with a quick site evaluation (cover type, plumbing layout, equipment condition, and access), then we follow a proven sequence: remove and store accessories, clean and secure the equipment pad, blow out and protect each line (returns, skimmers, main drain where applicable), add winter chemistry calibrated to gallons and surface, and install your safety cover with even tension to prevent rubbing, sagging, and spring headaches. We finish by labeling/photographing key valves and steps so your spring opening is faster and cleaner. We plan for conditions around Sunrise Highway (NY-27), Merrick Road (NY-27), Peninsula Boulevard, and neighborhoods near Atlantic Avenue — where leaf load can surge late season and cold snaps can hit fast.

Pool Closing — FAQs

When should I schedule a pool closing in Lynbrook?
Most Lynbrook homeowners close in late September through October. If your property gets heavy leaf drop (common on tree-lined blocks near Atlantic Avenue and around neighborhoods off Peninsula Boulevard) or you want to beat early cold snaps, booking 1–2 weeks ahead helps you lock in the date you want.
Do you blow out every line and protect the skimmers?
Yes. We blow out return and skimmer lines to the proper PSI, then install the correct skimmer protection (Gizzmo or winter plate), and winterize the equipment pad so freeze damage is minimized.
Can you install or re-tension a Loop-Loc safety cover in Lynbrook?
Yes. We install and re-tension Loop-Loc covers, check anchor condition and layout, and confirm even strap tension so the cover sits secure and clean through winter.
Do you lower the water level during a Lynbrook pool closing?
It depends on the pool and cover type. Some setups require lowering, others don’t. If you want us to handle it, we can do it on request and quote it on site.
Do I need to be home for a pool closing in Lynbrook?
Not usually. If we have safe yard access and equipment-pad access, we can complete the closing and send a text summary (plus photos if needed). If anything requires approval (equipment issues, unusual plumbing layouts), we’ll contact you before proceeding.
