Maintaining Your Pool & Spa in the Winter
An important part of maintaining a spa, hot tub, swim spas or swimming pool includes preparing it for those months when you may not be using it. Most people believe that pools should be closed when night time temperatures are in the 40s and daytime highs are in the mid 60s to low 70s. Algae growth can increase if the lid is closed too early. If you wait until trees start to shed their leaves, then you may have that mess to cope with.
It is often thought necessary to winterize the plumbing, equipment and pool structure before any of these components freeze. Pools owners should inspect the structure. If something needs to be repaired, you should do it before closing your pool for the season and ideally before the freezing weather sets in.
It is best to vacuum your pool or spa and also vacuum wastewater to the appropriate location. Vacuum on the filter position only if you filter doesn't have a waste indicator. When possible, use a portable pump to vacuum directly to waste.
It is recommended to carry out this water treatment in the winter so that the water does not become corrosive when the temperature drops to the freezing point or below. The chemicals you add for winter needs to be done before draining or placing the cover on. It is suggested to check the manuals that come with the chemicals or cover.
After closing the valve on the skimmer line, you should then lower the water level to about 18 inches below the pool’s coping. The level you lower the pool will depend on the size.It is advised to check the manual for your pool from the manufacturers website.
Be sure to drain the water and blow water out of all piping. An air compressor will help to blow water out of circulation lines. It is essential to empty as much water as possible from the heater and filter. Add nontoxic antifreeze – which is different than car antifreeze. This is usually available at most pool supply stores. The chemical mix will help protect the pool from freezing over.
Drain valves thoroughly, making sure that any below water level are securely sealed. It is best to use an electric heat tape for lines below water level that could be exposed to freezing but cannot be drained or filled with antifreeze.
Lights that have less than 18 inches of water above them are best removed. It can be stored in a dry place as long as wrapped in plastic.
Drain the pump by removing the plugs and with the help of a wet/dry vac remove all the water from the pump housing and strainer compartment. Try not to remove the drain plugs when adding the antifreeze. Rust can be prevented by coating the drain hole threads.
All filters should be completely drained and drain plugs left out and again apply a lubricant to the threads.
Finally the cover. Securing it tightly will keep out any unwanted materials into the pool!

Frequently Asked Questions...
Wet Dry Filter?
I have a 44 gal satwater tank and wet dry filter. Every 3~4 days, the water level in the filter goes down and start to sucking the air and the tank is all small air bubbles. So every 3~4 days, I have to add saltwater. I don't know what am I doing wrong? Help!!
Answer:
That sounds to be about normal to me. Any tank on which I have run a wet dry with an over flow box intake has had this problem to one extent or the other. You should however be adding conditioned freshwater to make up for the evaporation as the salt does not go out with the water and by adding saltwater you are steadily increasing your salinity.
