    If you think it might freeze the water in the pump. I would run the pump tonight to keep the water moving so It does not hurt the pump or pipes. Better safe the sorry.

    Hit With Muriatic Acid Fumes

    I always add my acid in the afternoon. so the wind is blowing some, as I found out the hard way doing it in a morning with no wind is a bad idea as the fumes will get you bad because the fumes surround you and By time you fig it out you will be moving to find some clean air to breath.
