I finally did the chemicals, blew water from lines, removed drain plugs from filter and pump, put winterizing plugs in return jets, and added my antifreeze. All that was left was the cover. I had to wait a few days for some help, and during those few days, we had a nice little rainstorm resulting in HUNDREDS of leaves (and some worms) going into my pool. I have managed to remove most of them with a net (several hours worth), but had a few questions. 1- My water now looks a bit green. Is it from the leaves? What can I do to make sure it isn't green in spring? 2- What damage will be done if a few leaves stay in pool? Thanks so much! I procrastinated too long on the winterizing of my pool.
