What Kind of Steps Should Be Taken in Case of a Forecasted Cold Snap?
Question?
Q: Thank you for taking the time. My family and I decided to purchase a home with a swimming pool. We are new at maintaining the pool, and will need a little knowledge base help. What steps should we take in case of a cold snap to protect our swimming pool system? That should be understandable.
You take care, bye now.

A:
Yes, we can help you out with this. It depends on the area that your house is located. If the cold snap is long term, you empty the pipeline to prevent cracks from expanding ice. This case scenario is for the most northern states. When there is only one day of forecasted freezing temperatures, then the only prevention step you need to take is to let the pool system run for the duration of the cold snap. This simple action will keep the water from freezing inside the pipeline. Keep up the focus.
Come by anytime.
