How to Drain Your Pool and Long Term Storage
Note: This pool has drain valves installed in 2 corners. Connect the garden hose to the corner
valve that directs the water to the appropriate location.
1. Check local regulations for specific directions regarding disposal of swimming pool water.

3. Remove the cap from the drain valve on the outside pool wall.

5. Place the other end of the hose in an area where the water can be safely drained away from the
house.
6. Attach the drain connector to the drain valve. NOTE: The drain connector will push the drain
plug open inside the pool and water will start to drain immediately.
7. When the water stops draining, start lifting the pool from the side opposite the drain, leading any
remaining water to the drain and emptying the pool completely.
8. Disconnect hose and adapter when finished.
9. Re-insert drain plug in drain valve on inside of pool for storage.
10. Replace drain cap on outside of pool.
11. Reverse the set up instructions to disassemble the pool. Completely deflate the top ring, and
remove all plumbing parts.
12. Be sure that the pool and all parts are completely dry before folding. Let it lie in the sun for an hour
(see drawing 8). Sprinkle some talcum powder to prevent the vinyl from sticking together and to
absorb any moisture you may have missed.
13. Create rectangular shape. Starting at one side, fold one-sixth of liner in on itself twice. Do the same
on the opposite side (see drawings 9.1 & 9.2).
14. Once you have created two opposing folded sides, simply fold one over the other like closing a book
(see drawings 10.1 & 10.2).
15. Fold the two long ends to the middle (see drawing 11).
16. Fold one over the other like closing a book and finally compact the liner (see drawing 12).
17. Store the liner and accessories in a dry, temperature controlled, between 32 degrees Fahrenheit
(0 degrees Celsius) and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius), storage location.
