We heated the hot tub two days ago and forgot to turn it off. It's been heating the whole pool for the past two days, whenever the pump was running. I just caught it and the pool is up to 93 degrees! The bright side is that it is supposed to cool off a bit this weekend but that shouldn't stop us from swimming. :lol:
 
I would love to. I want the pool to be done already and them gone!! We just got a call saying they want to do the plaster tomorrow. My DH was annoyed because its Mother's Day but I said no problem. They have been here so long there mail will be redirected here soon! :x
 
Leaving the heater on sounds like a common faux paux.

As forgetful as I am, I'm thinking when I turn mine on (assuming that it's ultimately completed one day), that I'll have to create some kind of visual indicator that it's on... something complicated like a red cup sitting on top of the TV...

A friend of ours heated his pool one day in December for a get together, so the kids could swim... found it still on 2 weeks later... ouch!

I've left the sprinkler on too many times to think I won't do the same, or worse.

Meanwhilel... buy stock in your local gas provider...

I be running around yelling, "Who left this red cup on the TV???????"

Sounds like heaven!!!

We opened our pool on Friday and this morning the water is up to a nice toasty 58 degrees :shock:
 
"Dumbass" tm Red Forman (that 70's show).

I had to register just to say that.

My Spa seems to have a "drinking problem" some nights, so official policy is check everything the next morning. Including looking for stray articles of clothing the Grandkids might find suspicious out there. :oops:
