So hubby and I are in a major disagreement over the water level of the pool. I believe we should drop it 6 inches below the skimmer as I've seen everywhere but he thinks because we have the skimmer plate and return cover we can leave it at normal level. His friend who does pool maintenance said that's the way he does it and unless I can show him otherwise in the pool manual that's the way he's doing it. The thing is our pool manual does not include closing instructions. I did find a warranty sheet that says not to use skimmer plates which I assume is the plate he's putting on before closing the pool. I told him it's just an extra insurance but he doesn't want to deal with it so how bad are we going to mess things up if we don't reduce the water level?

Also adding that we get hard freezes and generally a good amount of snow here
