I believe that is just it, the mystery of how to run a pool, always concealed by PB's.
When in fact its sites like this that truly reveal how simple the process is. Lets see, Pool Cover, Bags to hold Cover on (Supposedly), possible pillows to hold cover up, and then a possible pump to pump off excess water. Now on top of that, lets add a leaf cover, which in fact only stops full leaves, but as we all know, leaves tend to break down as they blow around. Go figure.
Its like closing a pool, the big mystery of it all is so simple when one understands the process.
A question I would like posed.
How many Pool Stores have people there that own pools and how many of them are even educated in their field? Same goes for Pool Installation, one can sub contract (which is what most Pool Stores do) and get any pool done for 40% of what the actual costs are.
I will never cover my pool, I enjoy once the water melts, to simply hook up all lines, turn on pump, vacuum once, and voila, my pool is ready to go.
