Split from Do I need to close/cover my pool? Zea3
I am new here and wondering almost same thing, kids left gate open, dogs went in, over solar cover(5 total great danes) so tried to patch most holes, but sand underneath still soggy in places I did not patch or find holes. it has maybe 3 ft water in it, on a 52 inch pool, and probly 4 or 5 in deep end, and still leaking? dunno it is so far below basket, and too dirty now to find anymore due to a cold spell. The liner was new this year, and since 10 paws with nails that had just been trimmed can cause boo coo holes, cause they thought they were walking on a hard surface I guess & went nuts, I had to get them out at 9am on a cold day. no clue now what to do, was going to fill it back up run filter, and then see if could find the others & patch em. but it takes 2 one to hold me under water to patch, and seems no one wants to help fix the damage, only use the pool.................... now I can't, and since it was put up for therapy, not too happy. It is a 52 deep with 6.5 deep end, and 15X30 oval. used, hence the new liner with deep end, and a huge deck just put around it all for naught it seems. IF we replace liner next year, does it have to be covered? hate to waste a new cover protecting a liner needing replaced? or just remove pump winterize it etc.......... and lock the dogs out! or they'll be fallin in the ice
thanks
