As the long summer days fade into crisp autumn evenings, it’s time to shift your backyard from splash zone to soak sanctuary. Closing your pool doesn’t mean the end of outdoor fun, it’s just the start of a new season of relaxation. At American Sale, we’re here to help you make that smooth transition from pool season to hot tub season with ease, comfort, and a little backyard flair.
Properly Close Your Pool

Before you start dreaming of steamy soaks, make sure your pool is properly closed for the year.
- Balance your water chemistry and give your pool a final vacuum.
- Add a pool closing kit to prevent algae growth and corrosion during the off-season.
- Lower your water level and install a quality pool cover to keep out leaves and debris.

Prep Your Patio for Fall Comfort
Your backyard oasis can stay inviting all year long. Once your pool is covered, refresh the area for cooler weather.
- Rearrange seating around your hot tub or fire pit.
- Add cozy outdoor rugs, blankets, and string lights for ambiance.
- Consider adding a fire table or patio heater to extend your outdoor season.
A little effort goes a long way in creating a warm, welcoming retreat for autumn evenings.
Get Your Hot Tub Ready for Action

Fall and winter are peak seasons for hot tub enjoyment. To prepare:
- Drain, clean, and refill your spa if it’s been idle.
- Check your filters, jets, and heater to ensure everything’s in working order.
- Stock up on hot tub chemicals and test strips so your water stays clear and comfortable.
