Tile Installation
You do not have to drain any water out of the pool provided you have properly blown out and plugged all your underground pipes as outlined above, and you do not have a pool that has decorative ceramic tiles at the water line. This might conflict with others pool industry. Some people are used to their pool being drained down past the skimmer. This is usually done instead of blowing out the pipes and using gizzmos. Realize that the higher the water level is through the winter, the better it is for the pool cover. Pools that are drained down low because of alot of undue stress on the pool cover, and thereby shorten its life. It also exposes the pool liner to the air and acn possibly cause it to prematurely dry out. The use of gizzmos prevents the skimmers from cracking, plugs the pipes and allows the water level to remain high for the cover. This prevents the rain water from causing huge puddle formations on top of the pool cover and possibly causing it to collapse in. We feel the only valid reason to drain the water down in a pool is if it has tile. The water level must be a few inches below the tile, otherwise, this could cause those tiles to crack. Aside from this situation, we feel that there is no valid reason to lower the water in the pool. Also, you do not have to remove or "lower" the pool light provided that you keep your water at the normal level.
