Seasonal Pool Services
Pool Opening
In-Ground Pool Opening
Our thorough in-ground pool opening prepares your pool for the swimming season after winter dormancy. We handle everything from equipment reconnection to initial water treatment, ensuring your system functions perfectly from day one. Our technicians carefully inspect all components while preparing your pool for safe, enjoyable use throughout the summer months.
Above-Ground Pool Opening

Our technicians reconnect all systems with precision, perform thorough inspections for winter damage, and balance your water chemistry to create the perfect swimming environment as temperatures rise.
Pool Closing
In-Ground Pool Closing
Properly winterizing your in-ground pool protects your investment during Ottawa’s harsh winter months. Our comprehensive closing service includes lowering water levels, clearing and protecting plumbing lines, applying winter chemical treatments, and securing your protective cover. This careful process prevents freeze damage and ensures an easier opening when spring returns.
Above-Ground Pool Closing
Above-ground pools face unique challenges during Canadian winters that require specialized closing techniques. Our technicians prepare your pool structure, equipment, and water to withstand freezing temperatures while preventing potential damage. This meticulous process preserves your pool’s integrity and extends its useful life for years to come.
