Active wintering: a solution for swimming pools in regions with mild winters

If you live in a region where winter is mild and frost is very rare, you can without the slightest problem opt for active mode for your pelvis. Indeed, if the hydraulic circuit continues to operate while it is freezing, the consequences can be disastrous ! But as no region is truly protected from frost, the team of Distripool also considers that active wintering is only recommend to owners of swimming pools equipped with a heating and a frost-proof box. So, if the temperature drops exceptionally below 0°, the frost protection box will start automatically the filtration pump. You will thus avoid large damage come spring.

When in doubt, favor passive wintering!

In your region, some winters are cold. Snow and frost invite themselves from time to time. And you do not have a system of heating or even a frost-proof box. In this case, forget active wintering and favor passive: it is better to take all possible precautions to avoid damaging your swimming pool by winter

Zoom on active mode: How to set up active wintering?

It is not complicated to put your swimming pool in active wintering. You just need to follow a few major steps: reducing filtration time, stopping water treatments and stopping automatic regulators. To achieve this, you must first pay attention to the water temperature. Distripool advises you in setting up active wintering for your swimming pool:

The filtration time of the pool water

When the water in the pool does not exceed above 15°, algae and other micro-organisms are no longer able to develop as well as in an environment benefiting from a higher temperature. That is why, with active wintering, you can reduce the filtration time to a minimum.

Here is the advice from the Distripool team:

- If the water reaches 12° or more, the filtering should not be modified. So for water at 14°, the filtration time is 7 hours: the water temperature divided by 2.
- If the water is less than 12°, active wintering can be implemented: the filtration time corresponding to the water temperature divided by 3. Thus, if the water is at 6°, the filtration time can be reduced to 2 hours.

The treatment water

If filtration time can be reduced, the same goes for water treatment. We recommend that you use a fungicide product specially designed for the wintering period as well as an anti-limescale product if the water in your region is very hard. One last tip: from time to time, remember to check the water balance in your pond. And act accordingly. This will be one less thing to do in the spring!

The automatic regulators are stoppedwith the exception of the frost protection box to be started!

The pH regulator, the electrolyser so many devices that you can simply shut down in winter if you opt for active wintering! For example, as the pH varies relatively little when the temperature is cool, there is no point in leaving the pH regulator on. And what about the electrolyzer? You should know that this equipment does not tolerate the cold well. It is therefore better to stop it than to risk damaging it. On the other hand, we recommend that you turn on the frost protection box for your swimming pool if you have the possibility. In fact, the filtration pump can thus be started automatically when the water begins to freeze.

Why is freezing dangerous for swimming pools in winter?| ||1861

Lorsqu’il gèle, la pression et la densité de l’eau augmentent. Autrement dit, la glace prend plus de place que l’eau à l’état liquide. Dans une piscine, le gel est donc très dangereux : il peut détériorer les parois, les revêtements, la tuyauterie ainsi que la pompe à eau. Les conséquences peuvent être désastreuses :

- Having to repair the swimming pool in the spring: an unforeseen expense that weighs on the budget.

Zoom in on passive mode: How to set up the Passive wintering?

It's decided, you are going to set up passive wintering for your swimming pool. Because after all, you live in a region where frost usually rears its ugly head in winter. But how to achieve this? The first thing to know is that you must wait until the water reaches 12°: below this temperature, algae and microbes can no longer develop! Then, you will need to follow these few steps:

Clean your swimming pool before wintering

When the swimming pool is winterized, the water in the pool must be both healthy and clear. If the latter is greenish and cloudy, you must postpone wintering until later and start by cleaning the pool! If you have the slightest doubt about the hygiene of your swimming pool, we recommend that you follow the following steps:

-Vacuum up the impurities with a swimming pool robot or, if necessary, a vacuum cleaner.
- If you notice stains on the walls, use a brush to remove them.
- Clean the filter using a product suitable for your filtration system.
- If necessary, adjust the pH of the water.

Lower the water level in the pool

If in winter you should not completely empty your pool, it may still be wise to lower the water level. The objective here is to leave the suction and delivery circuits out of the water. Are you wondering why it is better not to completely empty the pool? After all, you're not going to use it all winter! In fact, this risks damaging the liner as well as the structure. You can completely change the water in the pool, but you will have to wait until spring to do so.

Interrupt the technical room and take the opportunity to evacuate the residual water from the hydraulic circuit

En In winter, you must prevent the water from freezing in the pipes. To do this, it is necessary to interrupt the technical room and evacuate the residual water from the hydraulic circuit. Here are the steps to follow:

- Empty the water present in the pump, the filter, the electrolysis cell as well as in the various regulators.

- Drain the skimmers, the broom socket as well as the delivery nozzles.

- Take the time to clean, dismantle and store the various swimming pool accessories protected from weather conditions and in a dry place: ladders, diving board, swimming against the current, etc.

Install the wintering equipment to finalize the process

Don't worry: it's almost over! You will soon no longer have to worry about your swimming pool at least until next spring!

Here are the steps to follow to complete the passive winterization process:

- Use a winterizing product (both fungicide and anti-limescale) in different places of the pelvis. Check that the product spreads well. A word of advice: if you come To use a pH corrector, wait 48 hours to pour this product into the pool. Otherwise, their effects may be canceled.

- Put in place the wintering accessories: for example, the gizzmos in the skimmers to prevent ice from spreading in the event of frost.

- Install a winter cover on the surface of your swimming pool. There are models specially designed for winter, which are both waterproof and filtering! Warning: it you need to remember to remove the snow and rainwater which will inevitably accumulate on the tarpaulin over the weeks.

Are you afraid of not being able to carry out all these steps correctly? No issue ! A swimming pool specialist can take care of this for you! You will thus benefit from the benefits of the swimming pool without suffering the inconveniences, even if it is obviously a little extra budget!
