Where you can refill and empty container depends on what you want to refill it with. It can be refilled with water from a tap, or with lotion from a refill bag bought from the store.


How can you vacuum the 'junk' from the bottom of an inground pool which has been neglected for about 2 years?

Vacuum the pool to waste and/or empty the pool and shovel out the gunk. Sounds like the pool needs to be emptied anyway, so give it a chlorine wash (or acid wash) while its empty and then refill, add salt, install the necessary equipment and start over with a saline pool.

How do you clean a pool that has not been used for 8 mos and is turned off but is filled with water?

If you can empty the pool (safely, without damaging the pool), clean it up while empty and refill, that's your best option. Otherwise start by hitting the heck out of the water with chlorine, then start vacuuming (to waste) and brushing walls until clean.

How long do you have to wait for the pool to be decontaminated from dog poop?

It depends on the size of the pool, if its a kiddie pool, just empty it and refill it. For larger pools, the bacteria that is on the dog feces will die in a matter of seconds after coming in contact with chlorine. So it is unessesary to wait for decontamination. KeVin Toronto

Can you empty and then refill your dirty gunite pool?

* Yes, you can drain it. DO NOT leave it empty, however, but refill promptly. If the pool is empty and there is a lot of water in the ground soil, it could cause the pool to float and crack. == == * I have had this house for 4 years and have drained my gunite pool every spring, acid-washed it and refilled it. So far no problems. It does need resurfacing, but not because of what we did. It needed that when we bought the house. I understand that the cost of that is about $10,000. Which means... it might rather be a pond, or a cemented area with an above-ground pool. * Pools should not be drained completely unless the water table is low. Otherwise water table pressure can damage an empty pool. I never drain my in-ground pool more than 18" below the deck, and keep chlorine tablets in floaters in the pool all winter, which cuts down on brackishness. Removing cover & cleaning in spring just means brushing & vacuuming everything to the filter, then backwash. Sparkling water in one or two days. * When I lived in Texas, people with this problem installed plastic liners. Some of the ones I saw looked like a tiled pool.

The Pool Shop says l have too much salt in the pool how do l rectify it as he says l may have to empty it and start again?

How much is too much. Drain and refill if readings are off the scale. If over by a small amount then partial draining may work.
