Winterize the right way with Teddy Bear Pools & Spas!
Winterize the right way with Teddy Bear Pools & Spas!
Winter can be tough on a pool. Algae and other problems can start even in cold weather, making spring opening messy and expensive. Prevent these problems now by winterizing your pool properly and using Teddy Bear Pools & Spas closing products. Teddy Bear products are designed to keep your pool water clean and clear all winter long.
Proper winterization also protects pool surfaces and equipment, and makes spring start-up quick and easy. Keep in mind, proper winterization involves more than just adding products. Follow the steps below to make sure your pool is well protected through the cold weather months.
1. Balance the pool water.
Take a sample of your pool water to Teddy Bear Pools & Spas for expert advice on water balance. If needed, adjust the pH to 7.4 - 7.6 and make sure the other balance factors are in their proper range to prevent damage to your pool liner. (Note: if your pool is not using chlorine consult your Teddy Bear Lab Staff on Proper closing guidelines).
If algae is present in your pool you should treat this prior to your pool closing. If left untreated it will only get worse during the winter months, even if you use a Teddy Bear closing kit.
2. Winter Cleaning
Brush all pool walls and bottom and vacuum if needed. Clean along the waterline and around pool surfaces with an appropriate pool surface cleaner. Also clean out the skimmer and hair and lint trap. Backwash your filter and use a Bear Strip Filter Cleaner to remove oils and grease and ensure proper operation for next season.
3. Add Teddy Bear Closing Kit
Teddy Bear Pools & Spas Provides 2 different closing kits. Kit 1 winterizes up to 15,000 gallons, Kit 2 winterizes pools up to 30,000 gallons (For larger pools ask our lab staff for assistance). Both Closing Kits contain Bear Shock 56, Bear Magnet and Teddy Bear Algaecide.
With the filter running simply add all 3 winterizing chemicals (It doesn’t matter in what order). Predissolve Bear Shock 56 by adding 1 lb of shock to 2-3 gallons of water. Mix thoroughly and then add evenly across pool surface. Let your filter run for at least 2 hours to distribute these products evenly throughout the water.
4. Prepare your equipment
Consult with Teddy Bear Pools & Spas about proper winterization for your pool equipment. This may involve partial draining, plugging lines, and equipment removal and storage. If you use antifreeze to protect your pool lines or equipment be sure to use antifreeze approved for pool use. Do not use automotive anti-freeze.
5. Cover the pool
A well designed cover will keep your pool protected and free from leaves, dirt, and other debris during the winter months. Solid covers should be free of holes and held in place securely by water tubes or cables. Add about 1 inches of water to the top of the cover to help hold it in place. Mesh covers may also be used but will allow rain and some material to enter the pool during the winter. Apply an additional treatment of Algaecide about halfway through the winter to help keep the water clean and free from algae.

The Pools $12.78 Middle England, mid-1980s. The kind of place where nothing ever happens. Except something has happened. A fifteen year old boy called Robert has been killed, down by the pools. And half a dozen lives will come unravelled. There's Kathryn and Howard, Rob's parents. Kath has been making the best of her second marriage after the love of her life died young. Howard has been clinging onto a family life he hardly expected to have. There's Joanna, the teen queen of nowheresville. She's been looking for a way out, escape from her parents' broken marriage. She thought Rob might take her away from all this, but lately she's started to think Rob might have other plans. And then there's Shane, with the big hands and the fixation on Joanna. Bethan Roberts' strikingly assured debut novel subtly reveals the tensions and terrors that underpin apparently ordinary lives, and can lead them to spiral suddenly out of control. |

The pools provided the water supply for the Priddy Mineries which is now a Nature Reserve. This site supports a very rich invertebrate and amphibian fauna. A wide range of seminatural habitats are present, including valley mire, open water, swamp and tall fen. These habitats have a restricted distribution in the Mendip Hills. Priddy Pools is situated in the central Mendip lead orefield and the ecology of the area bears the mark of the lead industry. The northern pool was dammed in the 1850s to provide a supply of running water for the sifting and washing of slag. Lead was processed at St Cuthberts Works until 1908. The hydrology of the site is complex. Nutrientpoor water flows from springs in the north of the site to St Cuthberts Swallet where it disappears before reemerging at Wookey Hole.

Pools (Hardcover) $120.41 Inspired by a desire to design a new pool for her own Long Island backyard, Kelly Klein sought out and put together the most arresting and iconic photographs of swimming pools in all their various forms to create this unique and stunning book. The photographs are as inspiring as they are moving, revealing an incredible wealth of styles and designs in climates and cultures across the globe, and evoking the sensations of rest and nostalgia, the clarity of water and light, the coexistence of coolness and warmth, and the insinuations of sex and romance that can bring such character to a swimming pool. Included are pools in all shapes, sizes, colors, and settings, from Tangiers and Miami to the ancient magnificence of Hadrian`s Villa; from Coney Island to the C te d`Azur; from the robber baron 1880s through the prosperous 1990s, and captured by great photographers such as Lartigue, Stieglitz, Munkacsi, Weston, Mapplethorpe, and Weber. Republished in its entirety from the original first edition of 1992, including 187 photographs and a note from Esther Williams, Pools is a classic of modern design photography and an inspiration to aesthetes and creative homeowners alike. |
