How to drain water from a Bestway frame pool: pumping out remaining water at the dacha

With the onset of cold weather or at the end of the swimming season, owners of Bestway frame pools are faced with the question of how to drain the water with minimal effort and without damaging the site. Effective drainage of water is an important stage in preparing a pool for winter or cleaning it, which requires a careful approach and adherence to technology.

Before starting the draining process, you need to make sure that all the necessary tools and equipment are on hand. It is also important to check that the filtration system is turned off and prepare a place where the water will be drained so as not to harm the environment and plants in the dacha area.

Pumping water out of a pool: basic steps

The process of pumping water out of the pool should not be difficult if you follow a clear algorithm of actions. Here are the basic steps that will help you cope with the task effectively:

  1. Preparing equipment for draining. Make sure the pump is in working order and suitable for the volume of your pool.
  2. Clear the pool of large debris and leaves to prevent the pump from clogging.
  3. Connecting the hose to the pump and directing it to a place where it will be safe to discharge water.

After the preparatory work, you can begin to directly drain the water.Turn on the pump and monitor the process so that the water drains evenly and without incident. It is important to regularly check the operation of the equipment and the condition of the hose to avoid leaks and damage.

Pumping out remaining water at the dacha

After most of the water has been successfully pumped out, small volumes will remain in the pool, which are more difficult to deal with. To pump out residual water, it is necessary to use smaller and more precise equipment, such as a hand pump or bucket. It is important to completely remove all water, since even a small amount can cause microorganisms to multiply or freeze in the winter.

To successfully complete the process, follow these steps:

  • visually assess the amount of remaining water and choose the most suitable method for removing it;
  • if you use a hand pump, carefully pump out the water, controlling the process so as not to damage the bottom of the pool;
  • Dispose of collected water taking into account environmental standards and regulations.

What not to do when draining water from a Bestway frame pool

When draining a Bestway frame pool, there are clear instructions and precautions to ensure the safety and longevity of the pool. Failure to comply with these instructions may result in damage to the pool, the environment, or even personal injury. Here are the key points to consider:

  1. Ignoring manufacturer's instructions. The manufacturer provides recommendations for a safe method of draining water; failure to follow them may result in damage to the pool structure.
  2. Draining water on your own property without taking into account the consequences. Draining large volumes of water can lead to soil erosion. You also risk damaging the landscape.Another problem is that you can flood your own or your neighbor’s territory.
  3. Improper use of pumps and hoses. It is necessary to ensure that drainage equipment is in good condition. You must use it according to the instructions to avoid leaks or ruptures.
  4. Discharge of contaminated water into local water bodies. Disposing of water containing chlorine or other chemicals directly into rivers, lakes or sewage systems can be harmful to the environment. You may also violate local laws.
  5. Ignoring precautions when draining in the cold season. When draining water in winter, it is important to consider the risk of freezing. Then you can damage the pool itself and the drainage system.
  6. Insufficient water pressure on the frame when draining. Draining the water completely without providing support to the pool walls can lead to their deformation or destruction.
  7. Neglecting to clean the pool after draining. It is necessary to thoroughly clean the pool from any remaining dirt and microorganisms after draining the water. This way you can avoid their proliferation and maintain hygiene the next time you use it.
  8. Using water drainage without taking into account future refilling. Before draining the water, you should plan to refill it later to avoid leaving the pool empty for a long time, which can lead to deterioration of the construction materials.

Compliance with these precautions will ensure the safety and longevity of using your Bestway pool and minimizing the negative impact on the environment.
