pool closing
End summer swimming
Pool closing is the seasonal process of shutting down a swimming pool for winter—draining water to appropriate levels, adding winterizing chemicals, covering the pool, and storing equipment.
The term applies both to the task itself and to professional services that perform it: We scheduled our pool closing for mid-October.
In public or community contexts, pool closing may simply mean the facility is no longer open for the season.
