I need help!! Our pool guy highly encouraged us to open the pool 4-5 weeks early because we don’t know which “essential” services will keep getting cut from the list.
So the pool is open today purring like a kitten, water was crystal clear and gorgeous with very little junk on the bottom. However we see zero reason to fire up the heater until around May 1st but how does “44 degrees F” affect chemistry! We are not using our SWG until we get the water higher than 65 degrees of course so what do we need to do to maintain for a couple weeks of really cold temperatures.
How does chlorine react at low temperatures. Does it evaporate quick? When measuring PH is the number accurate at low temps?
