Season geography

Across Nevada's featured cities, typical openings spread from Apr 9 to Jun 21, closings from Aug 31 to Oct 25, and the unheated season runs 70–199 days depending on where you are. Elevation, coastal water, and urban heat all pull real dates around, which is exactly why a state-level answer isn't enough.

For your exact town, the pool season lookup takes a ZIP code. Opening day itself is a chemistry job — the dosing calculator turns your first test reading of the year into exact amounts.
