Pool season is over and your pool has a leak the water drained it safe to leave empty through winter months?

No, it is not safe to leave an empty pool through the winter months. An empty pool can cause several problems, including:

- Structural damage: The weight of the water helps to support the pool walls and prevents them from collapsing. When the pool is empty, the walls can buckle or crack.

- Damage to the pool liner: The liner can dry out and crack when exposed to the sun and wind.

- Growth of algae and bacteria: An empty pool is a breeding ground for algae and bacteria, which can contaminate the water when the pool is refilled.

- Freezing damage: If the water in the pool freezes, it can expand and damage the pool walls, liner, and plumbing.

To protect your pool, you should winterize it before the cold weather sets in. This involves draining the pool, cleaning it thoroughly, and adding chemicals to prevent algae and bacteria growth. You may also want to install a pool cover to protect the pool from the elements.
