I has a tarp that you lay down and you have to make sure the ground is free of stones and completely flat. We thought we had last year but we had a shallow and deep end by winter

We are going to put some sand down this year to even it out a bit.
It seems to like the liquid chlorine rather than the granules too. The maintenance is something you get a feel for, ultimately.
I think we paid about $550 for ours, money well spent.

Some people leave them up but we can get fairly heavy frosts around here so it's best off packed away in the garage.

A lovely 29° today. Too bad it's warmer in the pool than out today.

Currently 28C
Rain today has filled the pool back to the top ...
Should've checked forecast yesterday as I threw an hours worth of water in the pool last night ...![Bang Head](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/banghead.gif)
Seem to be losing a bit these days with the lack of rain. I seem to recall last year adding water to the pool only a few times, this year a few times already and we've ONLY just hit Summer! ...![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Did piss down a lot last year tho.

Same temp as the rain. It's looking a bit green now, but at least it has filled up a bit.
