It depends on your water chemistry, if you need to drain an in-ground pool every few years to recycle the water. If your cyanuric acid level is out of control you should. If you keep it balanced there should be no need to drain it and refill. Take your water to a pool professional to see where your chemistry is at.
If you mean what looks like a drain at the bottom of the pool and the pool is empty you are probably seeing the hydrostatic valve at work. it is there to allow ground water into the pool in order to stop it from floating in ground water that builds up under the pool when it is not full of water.
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.
The best way would be to unplug the swimming pool filter, open the drain valve on your pool filter turn the pump back on and drop the water level to the desired level about 2 inches above the skimmer.
you can back wash the pool and drain to proper level Throw a pool party with lots of energetic kids.
Just backwash until it is at the level you would like it to be. Or get a floating swimming pool skimmer ond take advantage of the free water and save on pool salt if you have a saltwater chlorinator.
Draining the water from the "pump" (I'm assuming you mean the filter) should only take a few minutes. How long it would take to drain the water in the pool down to the winterization level would depend on the size of your pool and the pump you are using.
not really you will have to drain most of the water or the sides can give out when you try to move it even a very little movement in a way it was not designed for can cause a side to blow and usually that means the pool needs to be replaced it is easier and cheaper to drain the water and then relevel your pool. good luck
Trick question. The pool is empty but the drain is open. With an open drain, the pool will never fill, unless the water entering exceeds the water draining.True,-----------> 20 hours
The only way to lower your cya level in your swimming pool is to partially drain your pool and fill with fresh water that will lower it or if you want to lower it to almost nothing completely drain your pool and start over but keep in mind chlorine tablets will raise your CYA level More information in the related link below.
