With winter quickly approaching, how do you know when it is time to winterize your beautiful pool?
Our experts at Leisure King are here to help you wade through this question of pool care and any other questions you may have!
We can make things so simple you will be a pool care expert in no time at all.
Watch the Temperature Closely to Know When to Winterize Your Beautiful Pool
The easiest way to know it is time to close things up for winter is to keep an eye on the temperature.
Since we build stunning Kayak Pools all over the east coast, the specific month time frame can vary greatly. Watching the temperature will ensure you take the necessary steps at the perfect time.
Once your local temperatures are CONSISTENTLY staying below 65℉, you can consider it time to winterize your beautiful pool.
Why 65℉?
This particular temperature is our key to success because, at this temperature, algae is less likely to start growing under a covered pool.
If the weather is consistently hotter, your pool water can start growing unwanted bacteria, including the dreaded algae.
Once the temperature is consistently lower, then your pool water is safe to be covered and left with the winterizing chemicals needed to keep it safe until spring.
Some Areas of the US May Not Need to Winterize Their Pool
For our customers who live further south, like in Florida, you do not need to close your pool for the winter unless you want to.
You can skip the extra steps and just keep an eye on your weather. Should the temperatures drop below freezing on a specific day or two, you can leave your pump running to keep things from freezing.
You can also grab a pool heater to prolong the swim season of your pool. This will keep the water warmer longer into the fall and even let you take a dive earlier in the spring.
There is always a risk of pipes freezing should you have an especially cold spell, but it is up to each home if you want to take that risk or not.
We know it is very common for you to choose to leave your pool open year-round due to mild winters.
Grab a Winterizing Kit When It’s Time.
When the temperatures start to feel a little cooler grab a kit with everything you need. This will make winterizing your water quick and easy.
We can help you make sure you have everything you need to keep your water clear until the spring.
Simply clean, add water care, and cover. Your pool will be safe until you are ready to reopen in the spring.

Getting ready for the summer is an exhilarating time. Kids are ready to be done with school and full of the hopes and dreams that only sleeping in late and playing in the backyard can achieve. If you’re wondering if it’s too late for a backyard pool to enjoy this summer, you may be pleasantly surprised. In fact, it doesn’t take very long at all for a Kayak Pool installation to be completed. So, whether you still have a few weeks left in the school year or your crew of kids is home for the summer, a Kayak above-ground pool can make those summer dreams come true.
Installation Process
As with any pool build, weather and unforeseen circumstances are always a factor. However, if everything goes smoothly, a Kayak Pool installation can take as little as one working day. But before we can begin the actual installation process, you’ll need to obtain the proper permits and determine which pool fits your space best. There may also be some landscaping that needs to happen before we can get started on the pool build, which can take some extra time.
Our team of professional installers will work with you during your backyard survey to help you choose the best placement, size, and shape that works for you and your family. If your yard isn’t quite flat enough, it may need some leveling out.
Once your paperwork and yard are properly prepped, we can begin by grading your space and setting up our patented WonderWalls. We’ll also fasten the joints and set up the inside of the pool’s bottom. Next up is the metal support posts, which we will install along the outside of the pool and attach to the top of the liner. If you’ve chosen to add a custom slip-free deck, locking fence, or steps and ladders, we’ll also get those in place as well.
Comparing a Kayak Pool Installation to Other Pool Types
Kayak on-ground pools can usually be installed in a fraction of the time it takes for other pool types, such as a vinyl liner, fiberglass, or gunite pool. From start to finish, the entire process takes, on average, 30 days. The biggest factor in time is the permit, as the time it takes to get one can vary greatly. But that also applies to installing other pool types. The biggest difference for Kayak Pool owners is that once we break ground, our installation time can be completed in as little as one to two business days. Other pools can take weeks or even months to be swim-ready.

It’s not uncommon for extreme weather to cause destruction in certain areas, but it can be especially problematic when that storm affects your outdoor pool. Fortunately, with Kayak Pools luxury above-ground pools, you don’t have to worry about losing your investment.
Made of resilient materials and reinforced construction, Kayak Pools are designed to withstand the elements and provide you with many years of summertime fun. Discover the exceptional durability of Kayak Pools, and learn about real severe weather experiences some of our customers have had.
Dual Layer Constructed Walls
Our pool walls are created using an industry-leading design that features proven strength, energy efficiency, and a virtually maintenance-free liner. While other above-ground pools are usually built with thinner walls and need to be stabilized by the water, our pool walls are double-walled.
This creates outstanding strength and durability. How? They are built with two extruded aluminum panels, which envelop a honeycombed-shaped core that evenly distributes strength along all of the pool’s walls. Kayak Pools also feature a double-layer of vinyl material for the liner, creating a 25 mil thickness that provides unmatched strength. Our liners also feature overlapping double-welded seams for added protection against wear and tear.
The Storm We’ll Never Forget
In La Plata, Maryland, on April 28, 2002, a severe thunderstorm moved from Shenandoah County, Virginia, and created a storm cell that spun a half-mile-wide tornado. This magnificent feat of nature hit Charles County and moved through the region, covering an astounding 24 miles.
It didn’t take long for the F-4 tornado, with winds between 207-260 mph, to reach the town of La Plata, nearly destroying the town’s business district. While destruction occurred swiftly, touching nearly every home and business, it also created a testimony to the durability of Kayak above-ground pools.
The previous year, Leisure King installed a Kayak above-ground pool, which survived the tornado and was left standing, virtually untouched by the violent winds.
Hurricane Ian and the Pool That Survived
Another instance in which Kayak Pools displayed their unmatched durability was during Hurricane Ian. The Kayak pools in Cape Coral where the hurricane hit weren’t damaged at all, withstanding winds over 150 mph.
The pool in these pictures displays the strength of the pool. According to the owner, the water went clear over the top of the pool fence, but when the hurricane reversed direction, the water was sucked completely out, and the damage was done.
So if you’re looking for an above-ground pool that is as durable as it is beautiful and luxurious, look no further than a Kayak Pool. With the superior construction, 30-year warranty, and commitment to customer satisfaction, there’s no better choice for your outdoor oasis. Enjoy your summer season, and know that with a Kayak Pool, you’re getting an above-ground pool experience you can rely on for years to come.

When you picture adding a pool to your backyard, you may immediately think of an inground pool. But, before you take the plunge on a big investment like a swimming pool, it’s important to take into consideration all of your options. For instance, a Kayak above ground pool features a plethora of advantages over a typical inground pool, including some extra special features you won’t find anywhere else. Let’s dive in!
1. The Decking and Fencing Come with the Pool
While you may be able to find a pool builder that will install decking around an inground pool, you’ll likely have to take care of the fencing yourself. And, in most states, it’s unlawful to not have a fence around a swimming pool. A key advantage of Kayak pools over inground pools is that you’ll get not only your dream pool, but a non-slip deck and a locking safety fence — all in one.
2. Incredibly Durable Pool Walls and Liner
The different types of inground pools will vary when it comes to their durability and liner life. But a Kayak pool has the advantage here thanks to an incredibly durable pool wall structure with a limited lifetime warranty and an unmatched liner quality. Kayak pools are double-walled, rust-free, rot-free, and even maintenance-free.
And, when it comes to the liner, a Kayak above ground pool boasts an innovative liner with a 25 mil thickness and an anti-bacterial coating that works to prevent algae. Other liners may fade over time, but Kayak’s liners feature UV ray protection that keeps your liner looking brand new for years and years.
3. It’s Virtually Maintenance-Free
All pools require water care products, but one of the main advantages of Kayak pools over inground pools is the 3-way filtration system. This industry leading filtration system features a dual drainage system and a high-quality skimmer that allows for non-stop circulation and creates a virtually maintenance-free pool. Say sayonara to Saturdays spent vacuuming the pool and hello to extra swimming time all weekend long.
But what about chemicals? You can add the AutoPilotⓇ Salt System to the Kayak pump system, and it will take care of the chlorine levels for you. Not only will this salt system work to sanitize your pool, but it will digitally read levels like the amount of salt and the water temperature.
4. You Can Try Before You Buy
Designing a swimming pool is almost as exhilarating as owning one and with a Kayak pool, you can try before you buy! Kayak above ground pools offer a few places you can go to and test out this amazing pool before committing to the install. In fact, you can also save thousands of dollars by qualifying for the program.

Searching for the perfect above ground pool for your family is nothing short of an exciting adventure! But, it can be hard to find a pool that checks all of your wishlist boxes. That brings us to an award-winning above ground pool that has been taking backyards to new heights for years — Kayak Pools. Let’s see how Kayak Pools differ from other above ground pools and what makes them superior to the other pools out there.
Virtually Maintenance-Free
While swimming pools have always been a desirable addition to a backyard, the maintenance that comes with pool ownership is not. One of the key ways Kayak pools differ from other above ground pools, and really any pool in general, is the magic of a three-way filtration system. Imagine a pool that cleans itself, saving you time and energy on vacuuming. Picture crystal-clear water with hardly any floating debris, making each swim a delight.
Not only does continuous water circulation help keep algae and bacteria at bay, but the filter element also holds a whopping 10 to 15 times more dirt than sand filters of equal size. Say goodbye to frequent backwashing, which in turn, lowers water and chemical costs.
Incredible Liner Durability
Wave goodbye to algae and color fade with a Kayak pool’s incredibly vibrant and long-lasting pool liners. Thanks to their anti-bacterial coating and UV ray inhibitor, your pool will stay fresh and clean for years on end. Kayak pool liners lead the pack with an impressive 25 mil thickness, crafted from two layers of pure, un-recycled vinyl. And with overlapping double-welded seams, you can trust in the strength and durability of these seamless wrap-around beauties. For a quick comparison, most other vinyl liners will need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years.
Superior Pool Wall Technology
Kayak pools aren’t your average above ground pools. You’ll enjoy a plethora of advantages with their double-walled strength. The innovative design that sandwiches a sturdy plastic honeycomb core between two extruded aluminum panels means the pool has not only superior support, but unparalleled insulating properties.
Worried about longevity? Fear not! The unique pool wall design comes with a 30-year, worry-free warranty for your peace of mind.
Decking Unlike Any Other
Most other above ground pools won’t come with a deck; it’s up to the pool owner to build one themselves. But that’s another key way Kayak pools differ from others. You can choose from a variety of decking shapes and sizes to ensure that your above ground pool provides an all-inclusive experience, whether it’s tanning on the deck or dunking the kids.
Are you ready to take the plunge into pool ownership?
