Ok To Keep Cover On Main Pool & Still Use Spa For A While

[yanks1]

we covered our pool 2 weeks ago but still have the chemicals up to date & the filter on a few hours per day. Reason is we're using our intergrated SPA about 1x week, Would like to do this until early-mid November. We live in northern NJ. Any pitfalls to be aware of before formally closing the pool?

thanks.... Tom

No problem leaving the spa open we do it all the time for customers.

thanks for reply... also while being covered I'm running filter each day 2-2.5 hours.. it that too much or too little? Pool was completely vacuumed & cleaned before covering and cover only comes off the SAP area when we actually use it 1x week

also to be safe, appox. how long into Nov can we go before worrying about any pipe freezing probelms? we live in western Morris County which tends to be about 7-8 degrees colder than Newark-NYC area

thanks....

If your not heating the pool water a few hours a day is fine. Maintain a chlorine level in the pool. As far as how late you can keep it open all depends on the weather but I wouldn't push it much more then Thanksgiving. What town are you in??

hey Greg... Chemicals are up to date & I tested levels this past weekend

we were thinking closing by mid-Nov... we live in Flanders in a wooded valley w/a stream running through, but still 700' above sea level, so it does get colder that most other parts of Morris County

really glad our cover is on, cause leaves have been falling rapidly over past 10 days or so

If your area is getting as cold as mine has been you should run the pump overnight

An indoor space, pleasing and durable structures protect you from the wind, hot sun, rain and the nuisance of annoying and dangerous insects. A screen room works in the winter by keeping your deck area free of snow for the enjoyment of your spa and bar-b-que. The roof can be made of screening to allow an uninhibited view of the sky with other roof options available.

A Swimming pool enclosure is the answer for those with lots of trees in their yard. By enclosing your pool area, your pool stays cleaner allowing you more time to relax and enjoy your pool rather than spending all your time cleaning it. The enclosure will also help rid the area of bugs and bothersome insects such as mosquitoes.

Pool Igloo is a different kind of Swimming Pool Enclosures. Because it is flexible, light, easily transported and very simple to store as it occupies very little space. The manufacturers say it can be assembled and dismantled in its entirety in thirty minutes and if storing on one side, in just a couple of minutes.
