Tankers will cost a bomb.

I have friends in Nerja who just fill from a hose.
There is no water shortage now!

At first glance I thought it said horse.
I wonder how long that would take..:)

I would not be surprised if they had. I know of one builder who tapped into neighbours water and electricity:eek: supplies whilst they were carrying out work at an adjacent property.

You can fill pool with the help of tanker. After filling the pool ensure that the alkalinity of pool water should be maintained properly. On the same way chlorine level of the pool should also be maintained to keep it clean and safe for swimmers. Poor water quality may cause irritation to the skin and eyes of swimmers and damage to pool surfaces and equipment.

When we bought our house, our pool was described on the escritura as a water deposito and its connected to the free irrigation water supply that we have in our local area, so we empty it at the end of the season onto the peach orchard.

Then we clean and repaint the pool and re-fill it in the spring :)

I think our escritura describes ours the same way, although we have well water as well as mains so fill ours from our well. When you say 'repaint' your pool do you paint over tiles or have poylester covering. We need to re-tile our pool and are looking at a cheaper way of doing this.

more likely its just got rendered walls - so needs painting when it starts flaking off.
