Closing pool - spa water level with no cover

Jun 26, 2017

Tulsa, OK
We decided to winterize the pool (no cover) this year. Had someone come do it since we are not familiar with the procedure. We lowered the water below the skimmer for the pool and spa.

This is the amount of water left in the spa after draining. Should we add more water? Do we need to add any antifreeze or anything to the spa? We live in Tulsa where it gets below freezing at nights.

Thanks

As long as the water level stays below the tile line and any pipes are blown out and plugged you will be okay. The water can freeze and not damage the plaster. Water freezing on tile or in pipes are what cause damage.
 
Looks like they did not blow out and plug your spa returns. Keep the water level below your spa jets. The water level will rise with rain and snow melt.
