Q: What is different about winterizing an above ground pool compared to an inground pool?

• <div><p>There are a few differences when it comes to winterizing above- vs. inground pools. Above ground pool winterization usually involves less hassle, time, and expense than the process for winterizing an inground pool. All the lines on an above ground pool are easy to access, making draining easier. Plus, above ground pools are typically smaller, meaning cleaning is quicker, and chemicals cost less. </p></div>

Q: Does a pool need a dedicated circuit?

• <div><p>Whether or not a pool needs a dedicated circuit depends on the electrical needs of the motor, lights, and pump. Keep in mind that pool motors can use a lot of electricity. A dedicated circuit can prevent the breaker from tripping whenever you use the pool. A small motor for an equally small pool may only need a GFCI outlet. It&rsquo;s best to plug it directly into the outlet rather than using an extension cord. You should also consult an electrician to ensure your pool&rsquo;s electrical system is in accordance with local regulations. </p></div>

Q: Can you put too much salt in a pool?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to put too much salt in your saltwater pool, and doing so can cause a number of problems, including corroding metal parts and causing the chlorinator to stop working correctly. In general, slightly elevated salt levels won&rsquo;t cause serious problems beyond salty-tasting water, but you should dilute the water in a pool with extremely high salt levels to prevent damage to its components.</p></div>

Q: Why am I losing water in my inground pool?

• <div><p>In-ground pools lose water naturally due to wind, heat, and humidity. They also lose water from the kiddos' cannonball competitions. But be mindful of the water level. If it drops too low and the pump draws in air instead of water, it will likely be damaged and require repair or replacement.</p></div>
