Posted by Kelly Mackereth on

Pristine Blue makes winterizing your pool easy! Follow these steps to winterize. 
A single treatment of PristineBlue at the end of the swim season is normally all it takes to keep a pool clear until spring.
“Winterizing” or “Closing” a pool means adding products at the end of the swim season to keep it clear without maintenance during the cold winter months.

  • Great! I followed these instructions to a T last year and my pool looked amazing when I opened it in the spring. I plan on doing it again this year! Wahoo!
