The reason for the cover is because we live by a big field and we get a lot of wind from it. You wouldn't believe the stuff that gets blown into our pool. Plus we've had a few ducks show up in the past couple of weeks. I'm not sure what could happen in the two weeks we are gone. I guess with...

Thanks Richard, I didn't think of that. I actually have some Poly60. We use it at winter closing.

We are leaving for a two week vacation. I plan to put a winter cover on the pool and run the pump and SWG on a timer while we are away. Right now the SWG runs 12 hrs daily at 25% maintaining FC 4. Would you decrease the percentage to about 12% and keep the run time the same? The extended...

We have a 24' and use a 27' cover. We first tried a 24' cover that came with the pool, but thought it was too tight. We then ordered the bigger size and thought it worked better. I like having more than enough than not enough. We use water bags to keep it weighted down because we get a lot of...

We have just enough space between the deck and the pool to get the cover to go down and around the pool. The deck is high enough for a crawl space which helps to get it straight all around. Then we use the wire and the winch that came with the cover. We have high winds from the field so we use...

Wow.....I just finished reading about this subject a few minutes ago and then saw your post. I have really bad arthritis and a friend recommended the book "Seven Pillars of Health" by Dr Don Colbert. Just received the book today and have only read the first chapter, which is all about water and...

Thank you so much for the reply and for all your information! I really appreciate this website and your willingness to help. I guess I will put the air pillow in place and see what happens.

This will be our first year closing a pool. I want to put the cover on tomorrow and let the SWG run a few hours a day until the water gets cold enough to completely close. The main reason I want to close now is because of all the leaves and junk that will continually get blown into the pool...

Thanks for the reply. Whenever we do replace the liner, we will probably use some type of padding. Besides this issue, we have had problems with moles. Not the greatest floor bottom. But I still love my pool and I'm very thankful for this website.
