Evening everyone,
I'm not coming back to our house in France (Brittany) for 2 weeks and wondered if it's better to leave the cover on or off to maintain water quality? As sunlight degrades chlorine I thought it might be better to leave the cover on but then thought the water might stagnate under the cover, filter will still be on to get rid of leaves etc if I leave the cover off.
I won't have time to go and buy any new products but I have chlorine and ph minus and plus. Should I overdose with chlorine to keep it going for 2 weeks? - it normally needs topping up once a week. It's only a round 5m pool, about 3' deep but I'm hoping the weather will still be good enough in a few weeks for a quick dip!! (Lounging on the floating armchair actually!!)
Any bright ideas?
Kathy
How to prepare pool for 2 week absence?
Hi Kathy. I would put the cover on and add a bit extra chlorine. It should be fine for 2 weeks if you are leaving the pump going.

Eileen,
Are you any good with a needle and thread? The wine glass holder on the floating armchair is falling apart and needs a little attention...........!
Fraise,
Well at least you're in the same country! Do you fancy a couple of weeks in Brittany? Otherwise, looks like cover-on it is!
Thanks for your help.
