Important Winter Rules
After your pool has been winterized and all steps carefully followed, the following checks and procedures must be strictly followed during fall, winter, and spring seasons.
A pool that is left up during the freezing temperatures must not be allowed to leak. It is not uncommon for a leak to develop during rigorous summer usage and go
undetected. What is thought to be water loss due to evaporation or spillage may be caused by a small leak. Persistent wet area around pools should be inspected. To
determine if your pool is leaking, mark the liner at the water level and closely observe the water level in the pool for a period of 10 – 12 days after pool is closed for
the season. Any rain during this period may compensate for any undetected water leakage. Therefore observation period must be extended to find any leaks.
Maintain a strict leak inspection schedule throughout fall, winter, and spring months. Spring thawing which frequently leads to ground heaving can be especially dan-
gerous if care is not taken
Maintain a strict inspection of the inwall skimmer housing to see that water is not leaking at the gasket. If skimmer was not removed water should not be allowed to
collect in the skimmer housing as the water will freeze and crack the housing and cause possible damage to the wall.
Should ice, or anything else, cut your pool liner allowing the pool to empty, be sure to release the cover thereby removing the weight from the top of your pool. Failing
to do so can cause your pool to collapse.
Consult your pool dealer for the proper winter chemicals for quick spring start up.
During the course of the winter the liner may pull out of it’s coping due to no fault of the manufacturer or the pool installer. Due to freezing and thawing of the ground,
the ground sometimes sinks and the liner with the weight of ice or water will sink also, thusly pulling the liner out of it’s coping.
Be sure to pull off all excess snow and ice from winter cover.
Do not permit ice skating or horseplay during the winter as this can cause pool and liner damage, as well as, serious injuries.
Your pool warranty will be invalid if pool has been improperly winterized and the following procedures not strictly adhered to. Pools that have
been incorrectly winterized have been known to collapse under the tremendous pressures exerted by ice and snow.
