I'm no expert, but if chlorine can kill you, then it can easily kill grass.


Does salt water in the pool kill your grass if you back wash and will the grass die around the pool by splashing water?

Yes, an above ground pool sitting on the grass will eventually kill the grass. Most above ground pool manufacturers recommend that you remove the grass before filling the pool because the grass can also harm the liner over a long time. The actual chlorine in the pool water is unlikely to damage the grass on its own. More likely is that the water itself may damage depending on how much water gets splashed out; the exact type of grass; and how well the ground drains.


Will an above ground pool kill your grass?

Yes, but when taken down you can reseed. If it is a large pool you may want to dig a half a foot to a foot into the ground making sure the ground is level. and place the pool in that circumference for better stability. If it is a small child's pool you need o move it every 2-3 days as not to kill your grass.

Where is the drain located? If it is on the wall near the top then you can keep the water in the pool. If it is near the bottom then you may have to drain the pool.


Will an inflatable pool kill the grass how do you make it grow back in the fall?

Yes, it will kill the grass. A filled inflatable pool is heavy and can be hot, heating the ground underneath. Without air, sunlight and water, the grass will begin to suffer damage within 24 hours. As for the fall, you can't grow back dead grass anymore than you can reanimate a dead dog. Reseeding or resodding is the only way to replenish the lawn. One preventative solution is to move the pool every day or so, but depending on the size of the pool, it can be quite a chore. Another (possibly wasteful) solution is to empty the pool after use and refill it for next time.

Drain pool water on lawn?

It will not hurt your lawn if you drain your pool water onto it. However, if you don't want a mud puddle, drain it on a down slope where the water will run off and not just sit on your lawn.


When you drain an above-ground pool can you safely use the water to water your moisture-starved landscape?

Normal chroline level in pool water is nothing more than tap water out of the faucet. As long as the pool water tests normal when testing with your pool test kit, you can let your grass enjoy the water. I do it all the time when draining rain water off my above the ground pool. I put a pump in the pool and run a garden hose to the sprinkler. The grass does well.


Do you have to remove all the grass when putting up a above ground pool?

No, but if you don't the grass will mold and sour and create a huge mess when you remove the pool for the winter season. Digging up the grass using a square shovel is the best idea. Put down a tarp or use sand, which you compact using water, until the sand it hard and doesn't mold to your foot anymore. Digging up the grass, leveling out the ground afterwards and using a tarp is the easiest way to do this.
