    A solar cover shouldn't make much difference.

    You can swim even at shock level with no problems. Just don't want to wear your best swimsuits that might fade.

    Doing good. Levels are fine, I shocked it and cleared it up about a month ago.

    Trying to get the most of it before the winter. We just started to get some more 80+ days so I'm trying to heat it up with the solar cover.

    Thanks for asking

    Excellent! There's nothing better for giving you the confidence of being in charge of your pool. I am surprised that you are getting cold temperatures in Alabama. Here in IL, yes. But in the south??? Bummer. Enjoy!
