Winterize or not?

[Cln]

New to AGP,so not sure If I need to close the pool for the season. We live in Austin, Texas today its 84,next week 70's, then who knows. What do I need? I have a mesh cover,but get lots of tiny leaves that go right through the cover. Any suggestions? Thanks!

No need to close like folks up north. Just keep the water balanced and scoop-out leaves or junk that may get blown. in. Chlorine usage will drop considerably, so that should help make things easy for you. If we get hit by one of those freak winter freeze warnings, keep the pump on to keep water moving.
