I love our family’s swimming pool, but I hated getting it ready to use for the summer. We have to take the cover off of it, clean it out, and put the chemicals in it. The part I hated most was taking off the cover. Between the melted snow and the rain that was lying on the cover, it was hard to remove it. I don’t mind doing it so much now, because we bought a swimming pool cover pump. Our pool is easier to maintain since we got the flotec fp0s400x. It pumps the water off of the cover, making it much easier to remove.
