Forest Hills sits tucked into the verdant hillsides south of Nashville, home to impressive country estates sitting in the shade of generations-old black walnut tree canopies. That natural beauty is a big part of what makes Forest Hills special, but for pool owners, those trees wreak havoc, raining down leaves, pollen, seed pods, and other organic debris fall directly into their pools for months.

Invariably, the most well-maintained pools fall behind and get dirty, especially in a wooded neighborhood like Radnor Lake, where between-visits debris is just a given.
Here are some signs it’s time to call a professional for pool cleaning:
Timing matters more than most pool owners realize, and Middle Tennessee’s weather makes it a tricky call some years.
Here’s what Forest Hills homeowners should keep in mind on both ends of the calendar.
Ideally, performing pool opening in Forest Hills, TN, when overnight temperatures consistently crest above 50 degrees Fahrenheit (likely between mid-March and mid-April) is the best rule of thumb.
While opening your pool too early isn’t harmful to your equipment, an open pool that sits unused is prone to algae development, especially if the chemistry isn’t properly dialed in from the start.
Closing the pool follows the same logic, but in reverse. When nighttime temperatures consistently drop below 50 degrees (in October or November), it’s time to winterize.
Forest Hills sits at a higher elevation than much of the Nashville metro (650+ feet), which means slightly cooler nighttime lows during the shoulder seasons. That’s worth keeping in mind when deciding how long to push the closing date.
However, waiting too long to close freezes pipes and fittings, cracks the equipment housings, and creates a much harder chemistry battle come spring.
Our seasonal pool service in Forest Hills, TN, covers both ends of the calendar with a thorough process that protects your investment and simplifies the transition between swim season and off-season.
