I need to purchase a submersible pump to pump water out of my pool over the winter periodically when the water level gets close to the tile line. I've got a mesh cover that lets rain into my pool so I will probably have to pump water out several times over the winter to keep the water below the tile line. I was thinking about purchasing the "Superior Pump 1/3 HP Thermoplastic Submersible Pump" from a local store since it seems to get good reviews and only costs $52. Here is a link to the one I'm thinking about purchasing: Amazon.com: Superior Pump 91330 Utility Pump, 1/3 HP: SUPERIOR PUMP: Home Improvement.
Since the water will be extremely cold when I pump water out over the winter, I'm wondering if this will cause any problems if a use a regular submersible pump like this one. I can't use a pool cover pump since I don't have a plug nearby so I'm hoping a regular submersible pump will work. According to the information provided, it pumps up to 40 gallons/minute and it has a regular garden hose attachment. I like how inexpensive this pump is but I want to make sure it will suit my needs before I purchase it. I'm not very knowledgable about submersible pumps since I've never owned one so any advice would be appreciated.
