why not just empty it and cover it? I took mine down last year (first year with a 15' and I live in CNY (cold and wintery) It took me half day to clean it up, dry it out and pack it up, alot of work I think and don't want to do it again this year.

Re: New 14' getting - upgrade now to Sand or Salt? why bot

So if you could help to clear up some things for me. I'm looking to not use the pump that came with the 14' intex Ultra pool. Thinking I might do the Sand 14 in Krystal Clear™ Sand Filter Pump. does that get used on its own? I see the salt water one being used with another smaller pump, why...
