Expert Pool Opening Services in Ottawa

Ahh—springtime in the Ottawa Valley! The snow is melting, the tulips are starting to poke their way up through the thawing ground, and it’s time for some spring cleaning. But the most exciting part of all is that swimming season is just around the corner—but is your pool ready for you to dive in once the hot summer days roll around?

Ready to Open Your Pool?

Each Spring, our team of professionals will get your pool ready for summer!

Our pool opening service begins by removing your winter safety-cover, removing the winter plugs, and reinstalling return fittings and skimmer parts. Next, we’ll reinstall any deck equipment, plug in the pump and filter, and install the filter pressure gauge. Once these things are complete, we will then start the system and monitor how well it operates. The final step is to add the starting chemical kit and test the system to make sure all equipment works properly without any leaks.

*HB Pools does not offer the service of tarp removal on pools .
