Should you cover your above ground pool every night?

Covering a heated swimming pool at night will reduce heat loss. For a swimming pool that relies on the sun for heat, covering it at night can still make it warm enough to swim in the next day, instead of losing all the heat overnight when the temperatures drop.

Can I leave my above ground pool up all winter?

Pools very rarely need to be drained completely. If you have a vinyl-lined above-ground pool, leaving it full for the winter will protect the vinyl liner from shrinkage and other damage. Since these pools are above ground level, keeping them full ensures that the wind will not damage the walls, liner, or frame.

When should I Dewinterize my pool?

Before you can de-winterize your swimming pool in the spring, you first have to winterize it in the late fall or early winter. This is a relatively simple process. First, make sure the water is crystal clear and clean by shocking it, vacuuming it, and backwashing the filter.

Should you break up the ice in a pool?
