We just had our inground pool completed about 4 weeks ago. The pool
is open so that we can brush the plaster as it cures. The PCC 2000
filter system runs 24x7. We have another 2 weeks (minimum) of
brushing recommended by our pool company. We live in Northern
Virginia where the temperature has been 50 - 60 during the day (now in
Dec) and 30's at night. The folks at our pool servicing company said
we may want to leave the pool open through the winter instead of
closing it up and reopening in 3/4 months. They said as long as there
is no deep freeze and the filter stays on continously we shouldn't
have a problem. My question is what defines a deep freeze? And is
this really safe on something I just spent a lot of money on?

Thanks - Bumstick

What in the world prompted you to finish a pool at the beginning of winter?
