Shelly from Hadley, MA Writes: Can I Recycle The Water From My Pool Cover?

Know what to do with the water from my pool cover, other than just draining it into the street. Can I save it somehow to water the garden in the summer? Can I filter it and put it back in the pool? It’s just so much water; I don’t want to waste it.

A: Stephen, Store Manager

Teddy Bear Pools & Spas

Put that water right back in the pool. Teddy Bear Pools & Spas has a disposable pre- filter that can be attached to your cover pump using a garden hose. The pre-filter removed the majority of the debris, and the rest will be filtered out once you open your pool.

The water may be a little cloudy, as it mixes with the pool water, but after filtration and chlorination begins, You’ll be fine.
