    Default Re: When do you open your pool?

    My pool stayed uncovered all winter. Checked it a few days ago - water temp was 60 and I had no chlorine. So, I topped off the water level and hooked up my filter and pump and added a couple of bottles of bleach. Temp here in the low 80s today. Hope to get my solar panels hooked up before too long. Don't want to waste all the warmth! One problem we have is that with all the flowering trees, there is a ton of stuff that falls in the pool in early spring until all the leaves come out and replace all the buds. It makes quite a mess in the pool. We should be swimming by late April or early May hopefully.

    Edit - checked it today, water temp is up to 67. Up 7 degrees in the last 4 days.
