POOL CLOSING • Seaford, NY
Pool Closing Service in Seaford NY
Empire Pools provides complete, step-by-step pool closings in Seaford — 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 Seaford conditions around Merrick Rd, Sunrise Hwy (Route 27), and the Seaford–Oyster Bay Expressway (Route 135) area —
where wind pockets and leaf load can change week to week and cold snaps can hit fast.

Seaford Pool Closing — FAQs
When should I schedule a pool closing in Seaford?
Most Seaford homeowners close in late September through October. If you’re near coastal wind exposure or you have heavy debris,
booking 1–2 weeks ahead helps you lock in the date you want and avoid last-minute rush slots.
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 Seaford?
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.
Do you lower the water level during a Seaford 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 my pool closing appointment?
No. As long as we have gate and equipment access, we can complete the closing. We’ll send updates and photos when needed so you know exactly what was done.
How can I prep my yard and equipment pad before you arrive?
Unlock gates, clear the equipment area, and stage your cover and accessories if you have them. If the pool is loaded with leaves,
a quick skim beforehand helps the cover sit cleaner and reduces staining over winter.
What parts of Seaford do you service for pool closings?
We service all of Seaford, including areas near Merrick Rd, Sunrise Hwy (Route 27), Wantagh Ave,
and the Seaford–Oyster Bay Expressway (Route 135), plus surrounding residential side streets.
