This above ground pool cannot be winterized and must be drained, disassembled, and properly stored if you live in an area where the temperature drops
below 32°F (0°C). If you are in a warmer environment, please follow the instructions below.
After usage, you can easily empty and store away your pool in a safe place (see long term storage above). Some pool owners, in warmer climates however, may
choose to leave their pool up all year round. In cold areas, where freezing temperatures occur, there can be a risk of ice damage to your pool. Leaving your above
ground pool set up in areas where the temperature drops below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 Celsius) voids the warranty.
Winterizing Your Above Ground Pool

2. Remove the skimmer (if applicable) or any accessories attached to the threaded strainer connector. Replace strainer grid if necessary. Be sure all accessories

greatly by region.
