Brinx’s Backyard Blog: Keeping Your Pool Cozy – Winter Covers & Automatic Closings ❄️🐾

Hey Friends, Brinx Here!

Fall is here, which means it’s almost time to winterize your pool! 🏊‍♂️❄️ I’m here to guide you through the different winter cover options and show you why an automatic cover might just be your new best friend.

Why Pool Covers Are a Must-Have

  • Protect Your Pool: Keep leaves, debris, and animals out during the off-season.

  • Prevent Damage: Covers help prevent cracks, algae growth, and equipment issues caused by cold weather.

  • Save Time & Money: Less cleaning and fewer chemicals needed in spring.


Types of Winter Covers

Standard Winter Covers

  • How They Work: Heavy-duty mesh or solid material spread over the pool and anchored.

  • Pros: Affordable, reliable, and prevents most debris.

  • Brinx Tip: Make sure it’s tight and secure to avoid sagging or water pooling.



    Automatic Pool Covers

  • How They Work: Installed on a reel or built-in track, the cover rolls on/off at the push of a button.

  • Pros: Super convenient, keeps the pool safer, and looks sleek.

  • Brinx Tip: Great for busy families—less hassle and more peace of mind.

Brinx’s Winter Cover Tips 🐶

  1. Clean First: Remove leaves and debris before covering.

  2. Check Anchors: Make sure standard covers are secure and taut.

  3. Inspect Equipment: Winterizing pumps and filters is just as important as the cover itself.

  4. Safety First: Automatic covers double as a safety feature for children and pets—always a tail-wagging bonus!
