Pool service in Guatay, CA

Guatay is a tiny mountain community of about 50 residents at 3,500 ft elevation on SR-79 between Julian and I-8, serving as a gateway to Cuyamaca Rancho State Park. Pool inventory is minimal. The few pools that exist are at the larger properties and require winter freeze protection (drain-and-cover, antifreeze in lines, heater shutdown) because the area sees 100+ freeze nights per year and occasional snow.
