Good morning all! I have a 14-month old pool that has been fortunate enough to escape both freezes that North Texas has enjoyed in 2023 and 2024. When preparing for a freeze last month, I looked into emptying and shutting down equipment. However, because our pool equipment is below the water line and there are no valves that shut off water to the equipment (except for on our Glacier Chiller), the pool would have emptied down a couple of feet had we taken that step.
So, I am just wondering if it is standard practice for pool builders to install valves on the plumbing to the equipment that is below the water line. If so, I would definitely like the pool builder to remedy this oversight before next winter.

Thanks all!
