Experience the Beauty of Hydroscape Pools

---

As the swimming season winds down, many homeowners assume their inground pool simply goes dormant for the winter. But without proper winterization and a professionally installed safety cover, an unprotected pool can face serious—and expensive—damage long before spring arrives.

At Hydroscape Pools Inc., we specialize in fiberglass pool installation and renovation throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Northern Virginia, and we can’t stress enough how critical these two steps are in protecting your investment.

Winterizing an inground pool is far more than draining water and snapping on a cover. It’s a detailed process designed to safeguard your pool structure, plumbing, and equipment during freezing temperatures.

Water expands when frozen. If your plumbing lines, skimmer, or equipment still contain water, freezing can cause:

• cracked pipes
• damaged filter housings
• ruptured pumps
• structural issues in the shell

A single freeze-related repair can cost thousands—far more than a proper winterization service.

When a pool sits untreated for months:

• algae can bloom under the surface
• plaster, gelcoat, and tile can stain
• scaling and etching can occur

Hydroscape Pools uses precise closing chemistry formulated for fiberglass pools to stabilize the water until spring.

Winterization includes:

• lowering water to the correct level
• blowing and plugging plumbing lines
• removing and storing accessories
• shutting down and protecting heaters, pumps, and automation

This prevents unnecessary wear and protects manufacturer warranties—especially for premium systems like Pentair.

A safety cover is not just a winter cover—it’s a year-round protection system engineered for safety, cleanliness, and long-term structural benefit.

Mesh and solid safety covers are designed to:

• support substantial weight
• prevent accidental entry
• secure your pool when not in use

For families with children, pets, or frequent guests, a standard tarp isn’t enough.

Safety covers:

• block leaves, branches, and contaminants
• reduce algae growth
• make spring openings significantly easier

Most Hydroscape customers open their pools to clear or lightly clouded water—not green.

A properly fitted safety cover prevents:

• UV damage to the pool interior
• staining from organic debris
• excessive water accumulation and freeze expansion

Hydroscape Pools offers custom-measured safety covers for fiberglass, concrete, and vinyl inground pools.

With over 22 years of experience, Hydroscape Pools handles every detail in-house—including:

• fiberglass pool installation
• pool renovation
• safety cover installation
• winterization & spring openings
• electrical, gas, and grading

As swimming season comes to a close, many homeowners assume their inground pool can simply sit untouched until spring. However, without proper winterization and a professionally installed safety cover, an unprotected pool can suffer serious—and costly—damage during the off-season.

At Hydroscape Pools Inc., we specialize in fiberglass pool installation and renovation throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Northern Virginia, and we help homeowners protect their investment long after summer ends.

Winterizing an inground pool is much more than lowering the water and snapping on a cover. It’s a critical process designed to protect your pool’s structure, plumbing, and equipment from freezing temperatures.

When water freezes, it expands—leading to:

• cracked plumbing lines
• damaged pumps and filters
• broken skimmers
• structural stress

Repairs from freeze damage can easily reach thousands of dollars. Proper winterization prevents these issues before they occur.

Without closing chemicals and proper circulation:

• algae can grow under the surface
• staining and scaling may develop
• gelcoat and tile can discolor

Hydroscape Pools uses precise chemistry calibrated for fiberglass pools, ensuring clean, protected water until opening season.

A full winterization includes:

• blowing out and plugging plumbing lines
• protecting pumps, filters, and heaters
• removing ladders and accessories
• shutting down automation and electrical components

This reduces wear, extends system life, and helps maintain product warranties—especially for premium Pentair equipment.

A safety cover is not just seasonal—it’s a long-term protection system designed for safety, cleanliness, and durability.

Unlike a standard tarp, a safety cover:

• supports substantial weight
• prevents accidental access
• remains securely anchored

For families or homeowners with frequent visitors, it is a critical layer of protection.

Safety covers:

• block leaves, dirt, and organic material
• reduce algae growth
• make spring openings faster and cleaner

Many Hydroscape customers open their pools to clear or lightly cloudy water—not green.

A custom-measured safety cover helps prevent:

• UV deterioration
• staining from debris
• freeze expansion damage
• water displacement around the pool structure

Hydroscape Pools installs custom-fit covers for fiberglass, vinyl, and concrete inground pools.

With over 22 years of experience, Hydroscape Pools provides full in-house service including:

• fiberglass pool installation
• safety cover measurement and installation
• professional winterization & spring openings
• pool renovation and upgrades
• electrical, gas, concrete, and grading

There are no subcontractors, ensuring consistency, quality, and accountability from start to finish.

We proudly serve:
✅ Pennsylvania (Greater Philadelphia suburbs)

In the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, winterization should be scheduled when:
