To properly winterize your swimming pool, follow these steps:

1. Lower the water level to about 25 cm below the counter-current unit; if there is none, lower it below the return inlets.

2. Remove or blow out the water from the pipework (this is usually done by a pool technician).

3. Drain all water from the filtration system and all pumps.

4. For saltwater pools, rinse all components — such as pumps, heat exchangers, electrolytic cells, and sensors — with fresh water before drying and storing them.

5. Store measuring probes in containers with a proper storage solution (never in distilled water) to prevent them from drying out and getting damaged.

6. Any easily removable equipment should be stored in a dry and warm place.

7. Cover the pool with a protective winter cover and secure it properly.

8. During winter, it is advisable to rotate the pump or blower impellers from time to time to prevent the seals from sticking or being damaged before spring start-up.

Cordless robotic pool cleaners should be stored in a warm and dry place (e.g. an insulated garage).

The battery must not “freeze,” therefore it is important to charge it to 80–100% before winter storage. This prevents potential battery damage.

During long-term storage, we recommend recharging the battery at least once every three months.

Tip for owners of Fairland InverX cleaners:

Models Fairland XA20, X20, X30, X60 and X80 are equipped with a magnetic battery isolator, included in every package.

Using it during winter significantly extends battery lifespan and ensures better preservation.

For all types of cordless pool cleaners:

In spring, before first use, the cleaner must be recharged to 100%.
