Another excellent pool.closing, The Crush teams are so professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I love the fact that they are a smaller company specifically dealing with pool maintenance. After dealing with them for a few years we would not use any other company.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO CLOSE MY POOL IN OAKVILLE?
For most homeowners in Oakville, the best time to close a pool is between late September and mid-October. Closing when the water temperature is consistently below 18°C (65°F) helps prevent algae growth under the cover, ensuring a cleaner opening next spring.
DO I NEED TO ADD CHEMICALS WHEN CLOSING MY POOL?
Yes. A proper winter chemical kit—including concentrated shock and a long-lasting algaecide—is essential. These chemicals treat the water for the 6-7 months the pool is covered, preventing staining and heavy algae blooms that make spring openings difficult and expensive.
SHOULD I DRAIN MY POOL COMPLETELY FOR THE WINTER?
No, you should never fully drain a pool for the winter. For vinyl liners, the weight of the water is necessary to keep the liner in place. We professionally drain the water to just below the return lines to allow for proper winterization while maintaining the structural integrity of your pool.
DO I NEED TO BE HOME FOR THE POOL CLOSING?
Not necessarily. As long as we have access to your backyard, and your pool equipment, our team can complete the entire process. We will email you a digital “Closing Report” once the system is winterized.
WHAT SHOULD I DO TO PREPARE FOR THE TECHNICIANS?
To ensure a quick and efficient closing, please:
- Please ensure water and power, as well as all closing supplies – pool cover, winter plugs and gizmos are accessible.
- Access to the backyard (gates aren’t locked)
- Please ensure all timers are turned off.
- Ensure sump wells are drained prior to closing.
