no i was going to in hook everything it will be sitting with no plumbing attached

i heard you need to pour rv antifreeze into it after you have removed the drain plugs ?

i have winterized pool and put cover on and everything is ready for winter except my heater. what are the procedures for this any help appreciated

yeah i found one for $100 bucks fine mesh says it blocks nearly all sunlight . should work i am just going to wrap the edges around some 2x2s and screw them to the deck should work fine.

would the regular mesh not work. too much sunlight get through. the micro mesh are a lot higher priced

i just seen on the big interweb a mesh agp cover this will allow rain and snow melt water through but keep all the nasties out it was $80 this should work as long as it is secured to the deck properly . wht do you think

would a tarp work doing it like that with the waterbags would like to keep the expense to a minimum this yr and buy a good winter safety cover next yr

i need to figure out some way to cover pool for the winter. i have a deck built all around the pool . there is no way to get a regular agp cover between pool and deck. would like to get an inground safety cover and attach it to deck but cant afford it right now. what are my other choices thx.

we do down to o degrees this would be way to cold to run pump i guess i will just have to get a cheap cover would a mesh be the best

i live in lexington ,ky our winters can be mild to pretty bad, it fluctuates from yr to yr . first yr with new pool i have a deck all the way around pool what are the problems if i do not use a cover this yr i will clean shock disconect and do everything else just no cover pros and cons please

were u running it 24/7 the whole mth

Re: Amazon Ecosaver solar. My experience/info/why I'm buying i love our ng heater couldnt do without it. i too just use it to warm up pool manually it is a hayward 250 kids are back too schooland not using pool as much now. this summer though has been very cool and rainy i fugure it cast me...

sounds good just wanted to know if i was in the ballpark of price.i am in ky this summer here has been very cool and rainy. so much for global warming

i cant get to the spreadsheet for some reason . but idid find one online and that's where I got my calculations at do they seem right

my nat gas cost me $5.134 per mcf to break that down into thermal units divide by 10.23 that gives me a price of $.50 a therm. so to heat my pool 13,500 gallons 10 degrees with 3.5mph wind and a 250k btu heater at 80% efficiancy should run me aprox. $6.25 is this right
