Hi,
I have a new pool this year, and was wondering if I need to do anything for winterizing in Northern California? We don't get snow here, but occasionally weather do drop below freezing temp. I know I need to clear the water from the solar panels. My pool builder said the pool pump will kick in if it detects freezing temp and that I should run the SWG as usual during winter.
If I am not gonna use the pool, should I just stop running the SWG so that it prolong the life of the unit? Should I use Pool Winterizing kits to close the pool?
I know the 'Pool School' have steps on winterizing but wondering if that is more relevant to places that snow/freeze often?
What do California users here do during Winter?
Or should I forget about winterizing, just leave it running as usual and make full use of my pool by jumping in with 7mm wetsuit?
Appreciate your feedback.
Thank you in advance.
regards,
Laurence...
