How to Get Your Inground Pool Ready for the Swim Season

inground pool

It’s almost time for your inground pool to shine! As spring swings into full stride, it’s time to think about pulling back the pool cover and plunging into the pleasures of your personal inground pool. At Goodall Pools & Spas, we’re all about making your transition from spring to splash as seamless and stress-free as possible. Follow our foolproof guide to get your inground pool swim-ready in no time.

Wake Up Your Water Wonderland

The first step in resurrecting your inground pool for the upcoming summer is peeling the winter wear back and preparing it for the warm weather. 

Removing your pool cover is the inaugural act of the season, so it’s essential to do it with care to avoid dumping debris into the pool water. Once off, give it a good clean, dry it thoroughly, and stash it safely for next winter.

If your pool was winterized, reattach all equipment, ladders, and railing, and remove jet plugs. Call for professional pool opening assistance from Goodall if you need a hand.

Prime Your Inground Pool’s Performance

With the cover off, it’s time to fill your pool to its happy level—mid-skimmer is just right—ensuring that your pumps and filters can function without a fuss. 

Once filled, kickstart your equipment but keep your ears open for any grumbles from the pumps or filtration systems. If your mechanical mates murmur, mutter, or moan, our Goodall service superheroes are ready to rush to the rescue with repairs.

Balance the Brew

Now that the mechanical elements are in motion, mastering your pool’s chemistry is your next conquest. 

Balancing your water ensures it’s safe for swimming and protects your pool surfaces and equipment from damage. Drop by any of our five Pennsylvania locations for a complimentary water test. We’ll help you adjust alkalinity, pH, and sanitizer levels to perfection with our top-notch BioGuard® pool chemicals.

Scrub-a-Dub Your Space

After months of hibernation, your pool will need a thorough scrub down. 

Algae and other unwelcome guests may have made themselves at home over the winter. Brush the walls and floor vigorously, vacuum up any sediment, and skim out leaves and other floating fun-ruiners. This bit of elbow grease ensures your pool is pristine.

Regular Revelry and Maintenance

With the heavy lifting done, maintaining your pool’s paradise status is all about sticking to a schedule. 

Regularly testing your water, cleaning your pool, and checking equipment function keeps the good times rolling without interruption.

Not keen on the commitment? Let Goodall’s Prestige Pool Maintenance Services handle the nitty-gritty. We offer customizable plans that let you relax by the pool rather than work on it!
