running pump during winter

We have a 24 x 54 round pool. We have winterized it and covered it. How often do we need to run pump during the winter? Or do we need to?

Hi, I recommend that you run the pump at least once a week for just a few hours. That is usually all it takes to keep the water crystal clear. It is also good to keep a little chlorine in the pool also.

My method of winter pool maintenance is to operate the filter once a week for a couple of hours. I use the recirculate mode on the filter since all I am trying to do is circulate the water. I usually add about a ½ cup of granular chorine while the filter is running.
