Freeze Protection

What do I do if the temperature drops to freezing or below?

1
Ensure the main pool pump runs continuously while the temperature is below freezing. You should have a freeze protection device that will automatically turn the pump on when the temperature drops to around 38 degrees. A freeze protector will keep your pool running as long as the temperature remains close to freezing.
2
Make sure the pool is clean. If your skimmers and main drain get blocked with leaves and other debris, it can prevent the pump from moving enough water to prevent freezing. Even though it’s cold outside, don’t forget to clean the skimmer baskets daily if necessary.
3
Prior to freezing temperatures, please fill your pool to the proper water level. If the water level gets too low, your skimmers will run dry and cause the pump to lose prime. If this happens, there will be no water movement through the pool equipment, and the plumbing is certain to freeze. It is best to disconnect your fill line and cover the hose bib. BMR recommends that you use a dry garden hose to fill your pool when necessary.
4
During extended freezing temperatures, if your pool develops a thin layer of ice do not break the ice up as that can potentially clog your skimmers. You can leave the layer of ice and your pumps will continually run during the freeze.
5
If you have a spa, your freeze protection will alternate between pool and spa mode. During freeze protection, you are unable to heat and utilize your spa due to the system alternating between pool and spa mode.
6
If you lose power or are unable to fill your pool to the proper water level, please see the winterization video. Your water level needs to be at the middle of your tile line and if it drops below the skimmer level, then please refer to the video. This video will walk you through how to turn off your equipment at the breaker and drain your equipment, etc.

Not sure how I can speak high enough of just how impressed we were with BMR with our Pool and Gable. From start to finish it was just an awesome experience. The level of communication and follow up was outstanding. Ky was the best to work with and the entire BMR team was amazing.

BMR is amazing. Professional, polite, timely, excellent work, fair price and they leave the workspace clean at the end of each day. Deliver what they promise without high pressure sales tactics. They stay engaged with the homeowner to ensure everything is done to specifications even if the homeowner requests changes. The before and after photos speak for themselves.

I highly recommend BMR! I just finished my fourth project with them over the last 20 years and 3 houses. This was a pool and patio extension which turned out beautifully. They are great at keeping you informed of every step in the process and moving things along quickly. Every person was easy to work with. Great team!

Fantastic experience with BMR. From design to finished pool, they were a solid company that stands by their word. We had a great project manager (Justin) and a highly engaged team to include personal involvement from company owners. And, they finished on time for our summer pool season.

My pool was finally finished last week. It seemed like a long time of construction and mud, but in this time of shortages and delivery issues, BMR did get it completed. Everyone at BMR beginning with Ryland, Heather, and Mike, and the ownership were considerate and efficient. They did exactly what they promised; they delivered a beautiful pool! I am extremely happy with my second BMR pool.

BMR just completed our second pool with them and it turned out beautiful again. Tyler M nailed our design request with a modern spin on a lagoon pool and Mason Thane was great to work with throughout the project as the project manager. I was most impressed with the quality and detail of the stone masons (Jose) on my retaining wall , grotto and outdoor kitchen. Very good experience and high quality result!

Just finished our pool and outdoor living with BMR. We couldn’t be more thrilled! It is challenging times right now to build a pool and Mason was great at communicating and keeping the project moving. Given Mason’s experience he offered great suggestions to make our pool design the best. Thank you BMR and Mason!!

We choose BMR Pool and Patio to design and build this pool and outdoor living area 4 years ago. If you are going to invest in a project of this type, go with one of the best in the area. From the time we walked in to discuss design, right on through project completion BMR was top shelf.
