When Should You Close a Pool in Harrison?

Close your Harrison pool once the water holds below about 65°F for several days running — usually mid-October to early November in Westchester County. An Angel’s Pools closing lowers the water, clears and plugs the lines, adds winter chemicals and fits your safety cover. Call (914) 737-1445 or request a quote online.

Why Do Harrison Pools Need a Proper Closing?

Westchester County winters swing back and forth across freezing. Water left in a return line expands when it freezes and splits the pipe, and the same freeze-thaw cycle lifts coping stones and works mortar joints loose around the deck. Neither shows up until spring, and both cost more than the closing did.

Harrison is unusual in that the town and the village cover the same ground and run as one government, so there is a single place to deal with rather than the town-and-village split that catches people out elsewhere in the county. The municipality runs from the dense older streets near the railway out to the large Purchase properties in the north, and those two ends of Harrison present quite different pools.

A compact lot near the station and an estate-sized garden in Purchase do not close the same way. The first is usually about access and a pool sitting close to the house; the second is about distance, leaf load and a good deal more stone around the water. Both are straightforward, but they are not the same job.

What’s Included in Our Harrison Pool Closing?

01

Lower the water level to the right height for the winter.

02

Clear and plug the lines so nothing is left in the plumbing to freeze and split. Water left in a return line is the expensive winter mistake, and it is entirely avoidable.

03

Add winter chemicals so the water keeps through to spring.

04

Fit the safety cover over a pool that is ready to sit until opening day.

Safety Covers for Harrison Pools

A safety cover keeps the pool clean through the off-season and guards against accidental intrusion by children, pets and wildlife. We fit one at every closing, and we install and service GLI Secur-A-Pool covers.

New York sets the safety rules statewide rather than town by town: a barrier at least 48 inches high with no more than two inches of gap underneath, gates that self-close and self-latch, and a pool alarm on any residential pool built since December 2006. Where a wall of the house forms part of that barrier, a powered safety cover is one of the approved alternatives — which is worth knowing before you replace a cover that is doing a job beyond keeping leaves out.

The difference

Pool and Stonework From One Crew

Most pool companies hand the stonework to a subcontractor, and most masons will not touch water chemistry. We do both in-house — coping repair and replacement, stone patios and pool decks — so when the freeze-thaw cycle lifts a coping stone, the people who look after the water are the people who reset the stone. No second contractor, no finger-pointing. Angel Lojano founded Angel’s Pools in 1998 and still oversees every project himself.

Winter is the time to plan what you want ready for opening day: a patio or pool deck, re-plastering, or a fireplace. Our guide to travertine, bluestone and pavers covers the choice.

FAQ

Harrison Pool Closing Questions, Answered

When should I close my pool in Harrison?

Once the water holds below about 65°F for several days running — usually late October into early November. Harrison runs from near the Sound up to Purchase, and the higher, more open northern properties tend to cool first.

Is Harrison a town or a village for permit purposes?

Both, and that works in your favour. The town and village cover the same ground and run as one government, so there is a single building department to deal with rather than the town-and-village split that confuses people elsewhere in Westchester. The safety requirements themselves come from New York State.

How much does it cost to close a pool in Harrison?

It depends on the size of the pool and what the closing involves. We do not publish prices: every pool is quoted after an on-site look rather than over the phone, so the number you get is the number you pay. Call (914) 737-1445 and we will arrange a visit.

Do you work on the larger properties in Purchase?

Yes. The estate-sized gardens up there are a different job from a compact lot near the station — more distance, more leaf load and usually a good deal more stone around the water — but it is the kind of work we do with one crew rather than handing the masonry to someone else.

Is it too late to close my pool in November?

Not necessarily, but it is close. The risk in November is an overnight freeze reaching water still sitting in the plumbing, which splits pipes and cracks equipment. Call as soon as you can — if a freeze is forecast, say so and we will tell you honestly where you stand.

Who builds outdoor fireplaces and fire pits near Harrison?

We do, in-house. Angel’s Pools has built 300+ stonework projects across Westchester — patios, pool decks, walls, fireplaces and fire pits — with the same crew that services the pool. That means the stone around the water is specified for a pool surround, not a driveway.
