It is always better to open earlier rather than later.
The recommended time to open up your pool is when temperatures in your area consistently reaches 70 degrees. 70 degrees is not exactly swim weather, these temperatures can promote algae growth. This can be a problem if you use a mesh pool cover that brings sunlight to the water.
Another thing to keep in mind as is pollen. As the weather warms into the growing season, our allergies and your pool are affected by pollen.
Schedule a pool opening and we can help prevent algae growth and pollen collection, making sure your pool stays a pool instead of turning into a backyard swamp.
Watch the Weather
You don't want to open your pool after a few days of warm weather, only to receive heavy snowfall the next day. We've already seen temperatures rise for a day or two and then plummet here in Connecticut. Keep an eye on your local weather forecast to help determine the right time to open your pool.
Put history on your side as well by noting the average temperatures in your region by month. If the averages temperature for a certain time of year is 55 degrees, yet it has surpassed 70 for the last week, it's best to avoid assuming that the great weather is there to stay.
