I also need to drain down my first year pool for winterizing. The guy closing it wants me to drain it down not just below the skimmers but also below the returns. And I want to do that to lower the CYA for next year. The problem is the overnight temps. F will be in the low 20’s and I want to keep the water circulating through the equipment until everything is blown out. My question is will the main drain alone supply enough water to do this? One of 3 supply pipes. I can turn down the speed of the pump. Seems like this should work. Any other way better?
