Exposed Plaster

[jinjil]

I had my in ground Diamond Brite plaster pool closed and had a new cover installed, this is a new pool and first closing. The company I had do the closing pumped the pool water down about 5" below the tile line. I now have the top of a step and that 5" of plaster exposed, will the plaster dry out and crack ?

I have never heard of that being a problem. It is normal to lower the water level below the tile line so I stood not crack the susceptible tiles. The company was reputable, then they should know what they're doing, and if they are good company you should feel comfortable asking them same question, but is just fine to ask here as well
