WINTER PREPARATIONS

Winterizing your Above Ground Pool
After usage, you can easily empty and store away your pool in a safe place. You must
drain, disassemble and properly store the pool when the temperature drops below
41 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius) to prevent ice damage to the pool and related
components. Ice damage can result in sudden liner failure or pool collapse. Also see the
section "How To Drain Your Pool''.
Should temperatures in your area not drop below 41 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees
Celsius), and you choose to leave your pool out, prepare it as follows:
1. Clean the pool water thoroughly. If the type is an Easy Set Pool, make sure that the top ring
is properly inflated.
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.
3. Plug the Inlet and Outlet fitting from the inside of the pool with the plug provided (sizes
16' and below). Close the Inlet and Outlet Plunger Valve (sizes 17' and above).
4. Remove the ladder (if applicable) and store in a safe place. Be sure the ladder is completely
dry before storage.
5. Remove the hoses that connect the pump and filter to the pool.
6. Add the appropriate chemicals for the winter period. Consult your local pool dealer as to
which chemicals you should use and how to use them. This can vary greatly by region.
7. Cover pool with Intex Pool Cover. IMPORTANT NOTE: INTEX POOL COVER IS NOT A
SAFETY COVER.
8. Clean and drain the pump, filter housing and hoses. Remove and discard the old filter
cartridge. Keep a spare cartridge for the next season.
9. Bring pump and filter parts indoors and store in a safe and dry area, preferably between
32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius).
