The Pool !



8 ft deep 17,000 Gallons

 

 



Pool is solar heated by 7 panels on the roof
The panels add one or two extra months to the swimming season


Pool can be heated using Natural Gas
Cost is about $10-$15/day in the winter


Everything is automatic and you do not need to do anything except enjoy the pool



       Please do not change any of the pool valves, timer settings or controls.   

  Pool Man "Chris" comes on Mondays. He will come and go via the back gate without warning.

  If you notice any unusual noises or water where it shouldn't be, please call Dave or Jan Immediately.

  The pool sweep will drive around the bottom during the day while the pump is operating.

  While swimming, just ignore the hoses and swim around them. Do not remove the sweeper from the water.

   Placing the cover on the pool
 



Pool cover wind-up really takes two people.
Use every night in winter to prevent heat loss
 


One person starts the end and the other turns the reel
 

Next you ensure it rolls on straight



And then roll the whole cover onto the reel
