Water level should be 2-3 inches above skimmer lip or edge. Usually about 3" 75mm or at least 1/2 way up the mouth of the skimmer. however this depends on the strength of suction from the pump. so long as there is no air being sucked into the system is the first rule to keep in mind. the second is the faster the water is moving as it goes into the skimmer the better. If you have a floating suction-side skimmer about 3/16 to 1/2" or 10 to 15 mm or more depending on pump strength.

Why should you disassemble an above ground pool during winter?
Not all above ground pools have to be disassembled during winter, although it is a good idea to drain them. Water expands when it freezes, and if the water is trapped in a closed container or in a crack, the expansion can break the container or the material surrounding it. Pipes often break, when water inside them freezes.
Can you rehang the liner on your above-ground pool if it fell over in the winter?
You can rehang the liner on your above-ground pool if it fell over in the winter but you will need to remove the pool corner caps, the rail, and all of the water. You can then re-stretch the pool liner and refill the pool.
Is the ground dry above water table?
Yes it is above the water table.
How does tap water get cold?
Tap water temperature as "cold" is its normal temperature, depending on what your water source is. Underground water usually from wells/reservoirs is about 55 degrees, where as some parts of the country water comes from above ground lakes/reservoirs, and there the temperature will vary. Its warmer in the summer and can get really really cold in the winter as the above ground water temperature drops.
What were the design of aqueducts in rome?
As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.As the aqueducts in the city of Rome were above ground, they were designed with arches to carry the water pipe.
Is draining all but a foot or so of water out of an above ground pool through winter a bad idea even when you live in the South and don't have to worry much about freezing?
Doesn't some amount of water help hold the pools shape so it doesn't colapse? I had an upbove ground pool that we left a little water in for the winter so it wouldn't fall down w/the winter storms. They sure are not fun to clean in the spring though. It depends on the ground water level. If your ground water is high enough to float the pool, it's a bad idea. If ground water is high the pool needs the weight of the water to keep it from being damaged. If ground water is low, it doesn't really matter.
How do you install water return fitting on an above ground pool?
To install the water return fitting above the ground pool, you have to switch off the source. After this you can then install the water.
