    Extended Leave

    Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately we don't have anyone to come around and look at the pool. Will we have water loss with the cover on (seems like should be a no)? I'm certainly no expert, but we were thinking we would leave the robot in to scrub any slime off the walls. If you think this...

    Extended Leave

    Hi all, wondering about an extended leave of an open pool, mid season. We normally have pretty stable pH and a SWG. Was considering to leave the EVO robot in the pool, running once per week or so, autocover closed. Problem is that we don't have any metric for SWG run time on a pool not...

    Yes, you can't see it, but it elbows over to the SWG.

    I understand where you are coming from, I just think the risk isn't that high of a pool cover being stuck open during a power outage and then someone drowning in that pool. There are risks with fences too, gates can stop automatically shutting, they are seldom, if ever locked, people prop them...

    Also, amazing they talk about revenue gain from additional building permits.... So I paid for a permit for a pool cover, which including removal of the (not currently compliant) fence, and now I will have to pay for a permit for a fence AND the fence itself!

    You know, potential jail time... From the bill: The bill results in a potential revenue gain from fines as it requires these changes to be enforced similar to a building code violation, which is punishable by a fine of $200 to $1,000 or up to 6 months in prison or both.

    They were not retroactive, they were adopted as part of the building code which is not retroactive.

    Not necessarily. Some pools existed prior to the barrier requirements, and MANY surely existed prior to the CURRENT requirements. Imagine, two years from now they change the regulations again, and everyone has to reinstall another fence? This is a bad path to go down as far as precedence.
