Leaving Intex Pool Up In Winter

by Lynn

We have an Intex above ground pool, 16x48. We live in Saskatoon Canada. Is there a way we can leave it up in the winter?

It is very cold here. We have been taking it down and keeping it in the basement. When we go to put it up in the spring it has a few pin holes where we have folded it for storage. We want to eliminate this problem. Anything to suggest? Thank you, Lynn.




Hi Lynn. It would seem to me like you might be better off leaving it up all winter. Hopefully someone from the cold country with an Intex pool can help us out here with some advice.

Have you asked at the local pool stores if leaving it up would be a problem? They might be able to offer advice.

If you do have to take it down again you might try rolling the liner as opposed to folding it. A loose roll would take up more space but it might prevent the cracking in the creases.
