I am a bit confused with this. If it is a wax of some sort, would not my filter collect it and away it goes from the surface?

For me, 65 and higher, I am swimming so I get 9 months use in central NC. The other three months, I have the pump running on low. We had four 17 degree nights this winter and a lot of sub freezing nights with no problems whatsoever.

It is all in the flow.
