We have just moved and also have an in-ground pool in our backyard. A friend helped me drain the pool but we ran out of time to finish the rest. My next step is to blow the lines. I thought I'd post a photo of the plumbing so I can get some feedback from users making sure I blow out the correct lines.
From initial research, it looks like the pipes with the blue valves are getting water from the floor drain and skimmer.
Secondly, it looks like the other pipes connected to what appears to be a gray Jandy valve are the return pipes (filtered water heading to the pool).
If the purpose of blowing lines is to prevent plumbing from bursting from freezing water, do the suction lines and return lines both get blown?
Thanks!
