POOL CLOSING • South Huntington, NY
Pool Closing Service in South Huntington, NY
Empire Pools protects South Huntington pools from North Shore winters — thorough line blow-outs, skimmer protection,
winter chemical balancing, and secure safety covers. We tailor every closing to the wind corridors and leaf load
from neighborhoods near Jericho Tpke (NY-25), Walt Whitman Rd, and Wolf Hill Rd, so your plumbing and cover hold up
through fast cold snaps. Our techs document readings, tag valves, and photograph key steps for a clean, quick
spring opening.

South Huntington • Local Insight
Built for West Hills & Parkway Conditions
Homes around West Hills and the Northern State Pkwy see gusty winds and heavy oak drop. We tension Loop-Loc covers,
protect fittings, and balance chemistry to reduce spring staining and hardware issues.
From blocks by the Walt Whitman Shops to streets off Melville Rd and Old Country Rd, we plan closings around wind exposure,
leaf load, and quick temperature swings.
What’s Included
- Filter disassembly & deep clean.
- Return & skimmer line blow-outs to proper PSI.

South Huntington Pool Closing — FAQs
Do you service homes near West Hills and Northern State Pkwy?
Yes. We routinely close pools in these areas and account for stronger winds when tensioning covers and protecting metals.
When should South Huntington homeowners book?
Most book late September through October. Aim for 1–2 weeks ahead of your target date.
Can you install or tension Loop-Loc covers in South Huntington?
Yes — we supply and install Loop-Loc. We check anchor layout and hardware condition before tensioning.
Will you lower water level if needed?
By default, customers lower water if required. We can handle it for an additional $125 + tax.
Do I need to be home?
No. Provide yard/equipment access and card on file. We’ll text updates as needed.
Any prep tips for streets off Jericho Tpke or Walt Whitman Rd?
Stage your winter cover (and water bags if used), unlock gates, clear the pad, and skim heavy debris so the cover sits clean and tight.
