Since we have decided to "close" our pool this winter by just covering it with our solar cover and using the leaf net we bought I have some questions:
1) How will this way of closing the pool affect the "shock and algae" treatment. Will we need to recheck our chlorine or even add some during the winter?
2)Will we be smart to run the pump a few hours during the night maybe 2-4 hours/7 days a week during the coldest months because it does go below freezing sometimes here. Since we are running the pump will this have any affect on the chlorine we put in to shock it for the winter or better yet how will it affect the algicide we added to prevent algae growth?
I think thats all the questions I have ...
