Loop Loc cover question/advice

[JohnT]

Where do I buy the solid silicon lube? Also what do you use to clean, you said you don't use soap? Do you just use plain water and lightly scrub with a pool brush? My cover actually doesn't seem dirty at all, although as the pollen starts to fall it is now accumulating more debris than ever. Do I still have to scrub clean.

Also any advice on how long I can leave the cover on without risking a major mess or possibly staining the liner?

Thanks

Why not start operating the filter/chlorinating without removing the cover? That will keep the oak pollen out without allowing algae.

I had thought of this but I am afraid that the chemicals would somehow damage the liner. If I am going to start running the pump and adding bleach I would rather have the cover off to where I can see the entire pool and properly judge clarity as well as anything else that might be going on. However that thought has crossed my mind as I have read on this forum where others have done that.


Thanks for the feedback
