    You try the dome thing in the winter and let me know how it goes!!!
    Is yours cloth or vinyl and is is bolted to the deck ?
    My dome is vinyl, it is staked into the ground surrounding the deck.

    If I keep the pool open over the winter, I will let you know how it works out. I just have the fear of a gas bill in one month that is equal to my yearly total .

    I have thought of taking the kit with me. I probably will do that next time I am going to a public pool. I should wear a lab coat when I test it too.

    That would be fun, walk to the pool in a white lab coat, open my stainless steel briefcase, pull out the ps234 kit, clipboard, pen, safety goggles, and some elbow length chemical gloves/sleeves. Then take a sample and test it at a pool side table.

    I've been interested in the idea of a dome for a while. I would like it just to extend the season not to use it year round. I'm up by NYC and theres only a couple of months where it is warm enough. I wonder if you could use a solar heater to keep it warmer. The Fall and Spring sun can be really strong.

    That is a great idea. I will have someone film it. Might have to get a few cameras going to catch all of the different reactions.

    Sounds like something a comedian like Howie Mandel would do just to see people's reactions!!!

    I'm afraid to guess. You might even want to consider taking a sample to bring home to do a "full run" of test. Be sure to keep the sample in your purse, towel or some other dark place. Let us know what you find.
