    To cover or not to cover

    Do you cover your pool every winter? We live in NC and this is our second year owning an above ground pool. We did cover it last year. However, our neighbor owns a pool cleaning company and he never covers his. I've seen others that are not covered too. Thoughts?

    Bonding?

    Bonding?

    We installed an 18' foot above ground pool; 52" deep. The electrician made a new properly grounded receptical that runs to the breaker. He said that it doesn't need to be bonded. I feel like it should. Do most of you have yours bonded? The pump also got tripped somehow after heavy rain this...

    Locust! :) Hubby already went to the pool store. Lol. One thing they told him is that bromine is only for indoor pools. Is this correct? He didn't spend too much, but I still feel like we aren't doing things right. - - - Updated - - - Oh and they gave him tests strips for testing the water...

    Thank you very much! I will read and re-read all the info you told me to and pick up the items you suggested. We are right outside of Charlotte actually, in the Midland area.
