Swimming Pool maintenance

Sammy_Jo_4

Hey all!

I had an inground swimming pool built by a St. Paul pool contractor a couple years ago and I'm wondering if there are any corners that can be cut (so to speak) with the maintenance expenses. I knew of all the expenses when I first had it installed but the prices have gone up, probably just because of the time of year. I'm sure there's someone on here who has to deal with pool maintenance in the winter. Right now it is covered with a solid winter cover, but I just know it will be needing extra attention come spring time. Any advice is helpful. Thanks!

This is a UK website, so not as many pools as the USA!

However there are several US Government websites that are excellent for advice on swimming pools; this is just one!
