Pool And Spa Closing Service In Bergen County NJ

Island Pool & Spa has been closing the pools and spas of Bergen County NJ for 30 years. A proper closing is what protects your plumbing, plaster and equipment through a Northern NJ winter — freezing water left in a line or a heater is the number one cause of expensive spring repairs. Our certified technicians winterize every part of your system so nothing is left holding water when the temperature drops.

Our Bergen County NJ closing service includes cleaning the pool or spa, lowering the water level, balancing the water chemistry, blowing out the lines and plugging the returns, shutting down and winterizing your filtration and heating systems, cleaning the filter, adding winterizing chemicals, and securely installing your cover.

— How it works

Our process, step by step.

01

Pool & Spa Closing Services in Bergen County NJ

Our pool & spa closings in Bergen County NJ are performed by experienced, certified technicians who winterize your pool the right way. The following services are included:

  • Clean the pool/spa
  • Lower the water level
  • Balance water chemistry
  • Blow out the lines and plug returns
02

Protecting your equipment for winter

Freezing water inside plumbing and equipment is the number one cause of costly spring repairs. We drain and blow out every line, winterize pumps, heaters and filters, and confirm nothing is left holding water before we leave.

03

Cover installation

We install your winter cover securely — safety cover, water bags or a solid cover — so leaves and debris stay out and the cover stays put through the season.

04

Scheduling your closing

Please call 3-4 weeks before your desired closing date. Closing too late in the season risks freeze damage to your plumbing and equipment.

  • Closing costs are “a-la-carte” and vary based on pool size, number of pumps, water features and other specifics.
  • Prior account balance must be paid in full before a closing can be scheduled.
  • Ask about our Winter Service — especially important if you have tile around the top of your pool.
