Winter time pool use?
We have a gas heater and a solar back up system. We elect to not use a solar pool cover as ours is very irregular in shape and a pain to put on and take off...plus it hides the beauty of the pool.
We pretty much use it right up until this week and will now lower the temps on the gas heater and just let the solar do it's thing. And in this mode the pool will not maintain a swimmable temperature during the current cold evenings and shorter sunshine days.
So we do without the pool for January and part of February.
The hot tub is used year around....it is a totally separate sstem from the pool.
What do others do with your pools during the cold months?
