Default Can I drain my pool?

I think there is a valve at the bottom of the pool for pressure release,
but I am not sure...


Thanks in advance,

You can dive down and pull the valve. Just be sure the suction doesn't get
you when the pool drains. It drains fast.

in high water table areas theres a pressure release valve, that lets
groundwater enter pool in the water pressure under pool gets too high.

just the presence of such a valve indicates high water pressure and
severe chance a drained pool can be destroyed........

lower water level a little, cover properly and chemical ass needed.
