Where to drain water

[bukzin]

I took a sample to the local Leslie folks results say mu CYA is up around 200.


What are better (or any) options to pump out half of my 25,000 older
in-ground pool?

I have no curbs or gutters to take the water. Also on a septec system that wouldn't
like that much in-flow in 24 hours.


Thoughts?

Yeah, the lawn is the only place in my yard to drain the water.

Need to pump out approx 8,000 gallons. Will the pool chemicals damage my lawn?

If it matters, average mid-day temps here are around 100 degrees farenheit

Ah - if you could add the city, state to your profile that would be great. See - Pool School - Read This BEFORE You Post

Is this a saltwater pool? It should not matter though because you probably water your lawn. So using the pool water on your lawn or landscaping will not be harmful because you will continue watering it later and that will dilute or flush away any potentially harmful items.

Do be sure that your lawn can take it without flooding your neighbors or basement or what ever.

Take care.
