SPECIALLY FORMULATED POOL WINTERIZING KITS WILL NOT STAIN OR BLEACH VINYL OR PLASTER POOLS!

Unlike chlorine-based winterizing pool chemical kits that reduce the effectiveness of algaecide and other pool winterizing chemicals and can stain, bleach or damage pool liners, In The Swim's winter chemical kits won’t damage your pool during winter.
In The Swim's non-chlorine winterizing kits contain a slow-release winter floater that releases a powerful non-chlorine oxidizer to keep your pool fresh all winter long.
Our unique winter pool floater removes carbon dioxide, one of algae's primary food sources.
No staining, no bleaching... just clean, sanitary water. Our powerful non-chlorine winter pool shock kills micro-contaminants, algae and pathogens.
All winter pool kits are pre-measured for your specific pool size. Ordering a larger winterizing kit than your pool size will help protect from winter cover problems.
All winter pool kits include complete winterizing instructions.
Pool water temperature must be at 65 degrees F or below before winterizing.
Not for use in winterizing pools using a biguanide based sanitizing system.
Ensure peace of mind this fall with a top quality non-chlorine winterizing kit from In The Swim®.

In The Swim Winter Pool Chemicals

In The Swim sells more winter chemical kits than any other online retailer. We carry a range of pool winterizing kits to prevent algae blooms and protect your pool after winterization. Regardless of the size of your pool, we have the pool winterizing kits to meet your needs. Pool closing kits are pre-measured for the size of your pool so even the least experienced pool owner can easily close the pool with the right winter pool chemicals, at the right price.

All of our In The Swim Pool Winter Kits Include:

Chlorine-free Shock

Our chlorine-free shock is a powerful oxidizing agent, but is non-chlorine, and will never harm your pool surfaces or your pool cover. Chlorine Free winter shock also dissolves faster than chlorine, and maintains greater efficacy at a wider range of pH level. All of our winter pool kits contain our premium chlorine-free shock that helps burn off any remaining impurities and won't reduce the effectiveness of other chemicals.

Time-Release Winter Floater

Our exclusive time-release winter chemical floater discharges a non-chlorine oxidizing agent into your pool water for months after it's been covered. Not only does this winter pool floater sanitize your pool water, but also works to remove carbon dioxide from the water - eliminating one of algae's primary food sources. Unlike chlorine tablet pool floaters, our non-chlorine winter floater will never stain your plaster or vinyl.

Winter Stain Away

Specifically formulated for closing your pool, Winter Stain Away helps eliminate stain-causing metals and minerals that can leave your pool with costly liner stains or hard-to-clean waterline build-up. Winter stain away sequesters metals – keeping them tied up in solution, to prevent them from precipitating out during winter. Works wonders on mesh safety covered pools, and keeps working all year round to help prevent metal and mineral stains.

Winterizer

The final step to preventing algae next spring is to pour in our special winter pool algaecide. Dr. Pool's own proprietary polymer blend combines in perfect harmony with the other items in your pool winterizing kit. When used in conjunction with our other pool closing chemicals our Winterizer Algaecide is the perfect "knock-out" punch against algae. Lasts all winter long, even into a warm spring.

Winter Sorb

Made exclusively for our Winterizing Kits, the Winter Sorb™ can absorb up to 40 times its weight in residual suntan lotions and body oils to prevent grease, grime and waterline scum. Oils are not good for keeping a clear pool that is winterized. They provide a low grade food source for algae, and can clog up the waterways, easily combining with free chlorine to create chloramines, which get in the way of free chlorine trying to do its job.

Make the smart choice this autumn, buy your pool winterizing kit from In The Swim, America's #1 Direct Source for winter pool supplies!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Moneek86 from First time First time using these products so I do not know how my pool will look at opening but they were easy to add.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Chris133 from Good product overall Pretty much all you need to close the pool. It doesn’t have anything for your pump if you have an I ground pool so be sure to buy that as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by lennyb from Nice all around kit Nice kit for the money but I only need to buy the 7500gal kit. Might be a bit expensive for the larger kits with free shipping and the $10 handling fee. Look for the free shipping and handling deal when buying chemicals from here. That will be your best savings.

Pool Chemical Winterizing Kits Reviews - page 2

Make sure that the pool water is cleaned, balanced before adding the winterizing kit to the water. It is recommended to close the pool when the ambient temperature is less than 65 degrees.

Follow the winterizing instructions below.

Pool Closing

At the end of the season:

1. Clean the Pool
Clean-up next spring will be greatly reduced if the pool is thoroughly cleaned before closing it in the fall. Be sure to vacuum the bottom and skim the surface before proceeding to the next step.

2. Balance the Water
Balance the components of the pool the same way you would if you were maintaining your pool for the swimming season. All components should be within their desire ranges; add the appropriate corrective chemicals to bring levels into the required range.

3. Shock the Pool and Add Algaecide
Lithium Shock or Chlor-Free is recommended for shocking. Pool Shock can also be used, but is not recommended for vinyl liners because of the possibility of bleaching the liner In The Swim Algaecide or Algaecide 50 is recommended for preventative maintenance of algae growth over the winter months. Add the recommended dosage of algaecide and shock treatment while the pool filter is circulating the water.

4. Add an In The Swim® Non-Chlorine Winterizing Kit
To make winterizing simple and economical, we suggest one of the Winterizing Kits. Our kit comes complete with Winterizing Inhibitor, Winterizing Stain-Away, Chlor-Free Shock and a float containing a non-chlorine oxidizer. (Step #3 may be skipped if using a Winterizing Kit)

5. Lower The Water Level
Lower the water level in the pool to 4-6 inches below the skimmer. In The Swim® suggests taking all above-ground pool filter equipment indoors for the winter to prevent cracking from freezing water. In-ground pool filters require that the lines be drained, plugged and filled with anti-freeze. Be sure to follow manufacturer’s guidelines and instructions for protecting your underground pool lines.

6. Drain and Plug the Lines
(For In-Ground Pools Only!)
In-ground pools require the lines to be drained, plugged, and filled with anti-freeze. First, the valves must be closed. The next step is to drain or blow out the lines. Plug them with Winterizing Plugs. Proceed to fill the skimmer line withAnti-Freeze. In the spring, the Anti-Freeze can be vacuumed out or drained into the pool since it is a non-toxic formula. Be sure to follow manufacturer guidelines and instructions for protecting in-ground pool lines.

Place a Skimmer Guard into the skimmer to prevent costly damage from ice. TheSkimmer Guard acts as an ice compensator, and will prevent your skimmer from cracking once the rain/snow water accumulates in the skimmer.

7. Covering the Pool

Taking the time to correctly cover the pool is the single most important step to opening a clean pool in the spring.

If your pool size is not listed above follow the instructions below to determine how many gallons of water your pool holds:

Average Depth

It is important to determine the Average Depth because it will be used in one of the equations below to determine the total gallons of your pool.

Deep End (feet) + Shallow End (feet) ÷ 2 = Average Depth

Now use one of the easy equations below to find your pool’s gallon capacity.

Rectangular or Square
Length (feet) x Width (feet) x Average Depth x 7.5 = Total Gallons

Circular
Diameter (feet) x Diameter (feet) x Average Depth x 5.9 = Total Gallons

Oval
Long Diameter (in feet) x Short Diameter (in feet) x Average Depth x 5.9 = Total Gallons

Kidney or Free Form
Long Diameter (in feet) x Short Diameter (in feet) x Average Depth x 5.9 = Total Gallons
