I live in Phoenix so I'm not really too worried about the pool popping out of the ground. Currently the pool is about 2/3 empty. A couple more hours and it should be completely empty and ready for me to get started first thing in the morning.

Re: CHlorine/bleach wash
Well I'm happy to say that all went extremely well. Saturday morning I started by chlorine washing the pool. I used 4 gallons of 8.25% bleach and lightly agitated it with a brush followed up by a good rinse. After draining that mixture from the bottom of the pool I had a few stubborn stains that I got up with a weak acid solution. After that I pressure washed the pool and then filled it. WOW what a difference. My pool was built in 2002 and I bought the house in 2004. In 2009 I had the pool acid washed but I honestly think that it looks better just from me pressure washing it than having it acid washed.. I am now working on getting the water balanced and then it's time to put in the SWCG.
