Swimming Pool Freeze Tips

The following are some tips for swimming pools located in warmer temperatures like central Florida.  When winter months only have an occasional freeze that briefly takes place (doesn't last longer than several hours in the night) like central Florida winterizing a pool isn't necessary. As a matter of fact it is more cost effective to simply maintain your pool.  The other benefit is that if you have a pool spa combo, you may still use your spa in the cooler months.  Many of our customers enjoy the use of their spa especially over the holidays like Christmas and New Years.

The best practices with a threat of frost are to let your pool run through the night.  You can adjust your timer if you like to run at night instead of daytime.  Many automated controls have a freeze alert setting so that they will come on when the temperature drops to a certain temperature close to freezing.  Keep in mind it is highly unlikely that you would have any threat of a freeze damaging any equipment if the freeze doesn't last.  The only thing that could be possible would be if you have a solar heating system that had water remaining in panels.  These systems are designed to drain when the equipment is shut down.
