Winter Shut Down

We carry out Winterisation on various Pools and Spas to protect the pool and equipment from frost over the winter months.

October is a good time to think about closing your pool or Spa for the winter months.

If you havent already please contact Jane in the office to arrange for our engineer to visit to winterise the pool.
