Eeeek!! I drained the pool too much!

[Lrooth]

I thought I was draining the water from the pipes, when in fact I was draining the water from the pool!! Overnight!! Forgot to close the floor return lines! I now have only three inches of water in shallow end of my 40,000 gallon pool. It has a deep, normally 10 ft deep end.

Do I need to refill it? If the three inches freezes (Pittsburgh, PA) will it damage my concrete painted pool?

Thanks..... No matter how long you own a pool... Stupid stuff happens!

Never a good idea to leave an in ground pool empty. Winter frost heave could crack it to pieces.

Thank you.... The water has been turned on and refilling has begun. I guess this means more chemicals, TOO.
