Autumn Season - As the leaves start falling the maintenance and keeping the pool clean becomes more of a chore. It's even more important now to keep the pump and skimmer baskets free of debris and the filter is regularly backwashed. Pressure changes through debris and a congested filter will prevent your heater maintaining the pool temperature and there's nothing worse than getting one of the last few summer days and discovering the pool temp has dropped due to the heater cutting out on the pressure switch.
Wind blown contaminates will increase so the chlorine levels can drop quickly. So to ensure the pool becoming a pond you have still got to ensure that the sanitising levels are kept up and your pH remains between 7.2-7.4. If the pool is kept together (clear and clean) then when you do come to close the pool it will not be a burden and time consuming.
If you do give up and consider closing the pool in Sept then remember no matter how well you prepare the pool it will need some attention during the winter. A wet winter will reduce the concentrate of algicide and chlorine in the water, so pools closed early should be reduced for the second time and further chlorine and algicide will need to be applied.
