It seemed like a good idea, when I scheduled it last week. We had a 3-day string of high temperatures around 80F, a veritable heat wave for early May around here, and the top of the cover was actually dry for a change. So I took the opportunity to remove the cover, reconnect the salt cell and other plumbing, and prep for a fill.
Now looking at the forecast, it's 49F - 75F and rain most of the next ten days... so probably no swimming here! At least I got the cover off before it filled back up with water.
I usually take my pool level down about 14 inches for winter, just below the lights and skimmer, since things remain frozen here most of the winter most years. We had a long string of 0F - 20F nights and days this year, so I'm glad I wasn't having to worry about what that was doing to the delicate plastic bits.
