    . . . membership upgraded.

    The cautions about draining pools are MOSTLY for inground fiberglass and especially, inground vinyl pools. Most AG pools can be drained to within 6" of the bottom without problems. With IG vinyl, you can lose your liner if you drain, because it's suction fitted into place. With AG pools the risk is the walls will topple, without water pushing them out.
