So we just had our new pool build finish in late April and now may be leaving for up to 6 months. SMDH. Pool is perfectly clear thanks to all the stellar info and advice here.
So… if I was to do a crazy high SLAM and cover the pool how long would you expect to be able leave it? If I was to do this, would it be best to reduce the pump running time to winter hours? Keep in mind pool is in TX and current pool temp is 90F. Obviously I would clean the filter, pump catch basin and skimmers prior to leaving.
Essentially my question is: if I were to perform a winter closing (without draining below skimmer level) in the summer is it possible to leave the pool without maintenance? And what would be an expected time frame before needing to check on the pool? A month? 3 months? 6 months?
