You have to be careful about emptying any in-ground pool. Normally they have a hydrostatic valve in the deepest part of the pool in case there is ground water built up around the outside of the pool.

How to Maintain an Above Ground Pool?

Above ground pools have a bad reputation. People say that they are hard to keep clean and costly to repair and maintain. The truth is that any pool can be costly to maintain. The trick to minimizing cost and hard labor is preventative maintenance. Keeping a pool clean is much easier than trying to navigate the murky waters of dirt and algae. Once the pool water turns green, it’s a long road getting it back to crystal clear. Above ground pool maintenance is a lot like chemistry. In fact, much of it is chemistry. Finding the right balance of algaecide and chlorine can be difficult for the novice. Read all chemical packaging carefully and only use enough product to treat the size of the above ground pool. Check warnings on pool shock package labels to make sure the product is safe to use on vinyl pool liners. Chemicals designed for concrete or fiberglass pools might damage and above ground pool line. This will result in headaches, heartaches and financial burdens down the road. Replacing an above ground pool liner is difficult and expensive. If chemistry is not your best subject, consider instead a relatively new device for above groun d pools. It’s called a salt water chlorinator, and it works in tandem with the pool filter to generate chlorine as the pool needs it. Simply add pool salt to the water and mix it in while running the pool filter. The salt water chlorinator will use the salt in the water to make chlorine. It’s a foolproof way to avoid over-chlorinating the above ground pool. Salt water chlorinators are relatively inexpensive, and they require very little salt per swimming season to maintain a healthy pool water balance. Once the pool water is correctly chlorinated, a simple routine of skimming, vacuuming and keeping the filter clean will leave you with plenty of time to enjoy your above ground pool. Skim leaves and bugs from the water’s surface every time you use the pool. This prevents debris from settling on the bottom, which results in a shorter time spent vacuuming. Above ground pools maintenance is no different from housecleaning or automobile upkeep. “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”
