Anyone ever left their intex prism frame pool up for the winter in Wisconsin? Is it too harsh out here to winterize and leave up from year to year? And if we can, what do we need to do to winterize it. (Also wondering about NJ - as my parents have one there too). Thanks.

Good morning, we’re just putting up our pool and filling up for the season. We have an intex 15x48 above ground pool. We have some CYA in a sock from last year that we didn’t use up. (We had to add some after draining and refilling last year and didn’t need all the cya in the sock). Can we use...

Hi all, newbie here. I’ve been reading a lot of threads here and they’re so helpful. So we’re one of the many who’ve succumbed to the Covid-pool buying and we scored a Bestway 16’x48”. We have a concrete patio that we’d like to put it on that has the traditional 1/4” per foot grading. How can we...
