No electrical to pool pump till tomorrow- DFW

[auto]

Been without power to pool equipment for about a week. It has not been 32 (or colder) for more than an hour. I will have power restored tomorrow afternoon (thank God) any damage potential? Anything I should do to minimize re-start?

Auto,

You should be ok for the next few days as it really has to be below freezing for several days in a row to cause major issues.

Thanks,

Jim R.

Thanks.. Thought so, but wanted to ask the bright people. that 220 piece kills my gen options. Anything that would cause the spa to lose a bit of water each day, without the pump running?

Unless you have had any rain you will have evaporation that drops your water level a little.

Besides evaporation, as Marty points out, it could also be a faulty (dirty) check valve.. If you have an elevated spa, there should be a check valve at your equipment pad.

Thanks,

Assuming you have power at the house

Cover the pumps with a tarp and throw a drop light under the tarp

that will help keep stuff warm enough for the "freezes" we get here

Thanks everyone... power restored, all equipment is good and functioning and just in time.
