I know its a dumb question but had to ask, and now I amgonna go out and pull the cover off and start filling with water, using the hoses that were used, as I am sure the pool water isn't crystal clear anyhow. And I am fearful that I do have other problems out there as my pool water with the cover on looks lower than when I closed. I hope its just me worrying for no reason but we will soon see. Did I say it is suppose to be 93 next Sunday here in North Carolina.
