WARNING
!
POST THIS WARNING NEAR YOUR POOL
This above ground pool cannot be winterised and must be drained, disassembled, and properly stored if you live in an area where the temperature drops
below 0ºC (32ºF). If you are in a warmer environment, please follow the instructions below. After usage, you can easily empty and store away your pool in a
safe place (see Long-Term Storage on p. 12). Some pool owners, in warmer climates however, may choose to leave their pool up all year round. In cold areas,
where freezing temperatures occur, there can be a risk of ice damage to your pool. Leaving your above ground pool set up in areas where the temperature drops
below
0ºC (32ºF)
voids the warranty.
Winterising Your Above Ground Pool

2. Remove the skimmer (if applicable) or any accessories attached to the threaded strainer connector. Replace strainer grid if necessary. Be sure all accessories
parts are clean and completely dry before storage.

greatly by region.

Pool Cover. IMPORTANT NOTE: Polygroup
