TFP Expert Discussion - Winterizing Your Pool

[Texas Splash]

RATS! I really wanted to attend this one., As many times as I saw the thread, I just "assumed" (there it is) that the meeting was at the same time as the others. I'll have to watch the video after you post it.

I hope someone talked about water levels with pools that have waterline tile. That was one item I wanted to address.

I was able to see the first half and learned a bit. Had to miss the AGP vinyl liner portion. Looking forward it.

Very nice. Thanks Jonathan, Kurt, and Dominic for all the tips. I can see tons of closing questions on the horizon so this will help. You cleared up a few things for me as well. Marty, nice work putting it all together.

I listened to the pre recorded 1st half. Did someone say for an above ground vinyl pool only drain water 6 inches? Is there a form for newbies for closing pools 1st time? We are in the northeast water freezes here. Should I be purchasing a winterizing kit for Salt water or just following the Slam method before closing? Thanks.

Bump as the season winds down up north.

Bump as the season winds down up north.

You know what the good thing about the season winding down up north is? That the season down south (aka down under) will be winding up soon

What’s this winter thing you speak of?

But I guess, in Florida you don't have these subtle differences between seasons.
