8. WINTERIZING THE POOL
(continued)
8.3 WINTERIZING THE FILTRATION SYSTEM
8.3.1 Disconnect all the hoses from the filtration system. Follow the instructions manuals of the various components
of your filtration system to winterize. Store all the equipment; pump, ladder or other in a protected and closed area.
8.4 USE OF A WINTER COVER
8.4.1 For the use of a winter cover, we recommend you ask your local dealer for information. Since many types of
winter covers are available, your dealer can advise you on the best installation for your pool.
NEVER LEAVE WATER IN THE FILTRATION SYSTEM. IT MUST BE DRAINED.
FREEZING OF WATER IN THE SYSTEM COULD DAMAGE THE COMPONENTS.
NEVER LET WATER ACCUMULATE IN THE SKIMMER DURING FREEZING PERIODS.
IT COULD DAMAGE THE SKIMMER AND THE POOL WALL COULD COLLAPSE.
The pool is designed to support the weight of water in a horizontal way. Make sure to remove any amount of snow
over 12” (30 cm) on the structure of the pool (top ledges).
During winter, do not hit a pool filled with frozen water. This could damage the pool. Never climb on a pool (frozen)
during winter. This could move the ice and damage the liner and the pool structure.
