Winterizing
Description
Instructions
Backwash the filter for at least thirty minutes before closing down the pool for winterising. This will clean the filter bed thoroughly. 1) Drain the filter tank by removing the drain cap at the base of the filter tank. Leave the cap off during winter. 2) Set the control valve handle between the RINSE and FILTER. This will lift the handle and help with the draining process by allowing air to enter into the tank. 3) Unscrew the pressure gauge from the control valve and store the gauge indoors. 4) Drain and winterise pump according to pump instructions. 5) Repairs should be made during the off-season when the best service is available, do not leave them until the next season. Close when water temperature is below 65 degrees consistently. Drain to 4-6 inches below skimmer inlet Add pool antifreeze and drain lines. Safety cover?
