    Another freezing question - Oklahoma

    If I had 39F and none of my current problems...I'd feel the same as you. Tulsa is supposed to get milder weather than Yukon...so hope it stays that way for ya! Got the pool backwashing/draining now....nothing like closing a pool in 14F! And I drain to my yard...so free ice rink!

    Another freezing question - Oklahoma

    Does my picture of the ice layer on top of my pool scare anyone else? Or is that not too big of a worry since my pump and water is moving just fine...

    Another freezing question - Oklahoma

    After reading this post, Winterizing Warning!, I wonder if I'm good with leaving everything running and just covering and adding heat tape instead of draining.

    Another freezing question - Oklahoma

    The areas in the picture that are not frozen still show water moving from my pump. I still plan on draining stuff....but there's time if anyone wants to stop me after seeing my pic!

    And to confirm, if I do the above...does that mean I no longer need to cover my equipment with a tarp nor buy electric heat tape?

    In-ground vinyl pool build - OKC - signing contract after you experts take a look!

    Thanks! We will definitely inquire about the EasyTouch. We got 3 gunite estimates, and they were all way more expensive for a lot less pool. Plus, this builder estimates a 3 week build time instead of 3 months.
