It depends on the ground freeze. If the ground is already frozen excavation would be difficult to near impossible. Concrete however can have curing agents added to it to allow for the temp and be covered with concrete blankets until fully cured. I live in Colorado and started our pool in late october. No problem until it was time to backfill and the piles of dirt froze. You don't want frozen backfill that can't be properly compacted or you'll get settling around the pool later. If this a good contractor and pool is a vinyl lined style, it should take no more than 2 weeks to complete. If your weather window is that big go for it.

∙ 8y agoUsing a salt water pool in the winter Since the chlorine generator cannot effectively generate chlorine from salt when the water temperature is below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, traditional chlorination techniques will need to be used for those pools that are kept open during the winter months.

∙ 14y agoSalt or no, draining a pool is almost never recommended. The only pools that are drained typically are the easy up or blow up variety. NEVER DRAIN ANY OTHER ABOVE GROUND POOL. NEVER DRAIN A FIBERGLASS POOL. NEVER DRAIN A VINYL LINER POOL.

Can you use water softener salt for a pool salt system?
There are two types of salt based pool chlorinators. More expensive and less common are those with a separate salt tank and these will normally use tablet salt for water softeners. The more common type is where salt is added to the swimming pool itself. In the UK we most commonly use PDV salt - that is Pure Dried Vacuum Salt or table salt. Granular salt for water softeners can be used. Tablet salt for water softeners should be avoided unless you have a white liner, because the tablets may bleach spots on the pool liner before dissolving. Julian Hobday of KindWater.
