Start of swim season
Pool opening checklist
Bring your pool online methodically with a sequence that prioritizes inspection, debris removal, circulation, and then water balance.

Pool care made simple means practical guidance, clearer language, and enough restraint to tell you when it is time to verify a label or call a professional.
Avenblu treats opening as a staged process so you can restore clarity and circulation before making larger chemistry adjustments.
Startup and inspection
- Remove and clean the cover before storing it.
- Inspect the pump, filter, baskets, and visible plumbing.
- Check water level and refill if needed.
Cleaning and circulation
- Skim debris and vacuum visible sediment.
- Brush walls, steps, and the waterline.
- Run the circulation system long enough to stabilize the pool.
Testing and balancing
- Test free chlorine, pH, and alkalinity.
- Adjust in stages and re-test after circulation.
- Document the first stable readings for the season.
