Good Morning Jim & Denise….I was just reading your email and I want to make certain that I follow your instructions for maintaining my pool. However, I’m not ready to close it yet. We are swimming at least 3-4 times a week with our neighbors and are loving it. It’s the first time we have ever been about to use the pool in 22 years in November. Actually what we would like to do is to keep it running through the entire winter….Too greedy?? It’s like a spa and when the temperature is set at 95 all yo can see is our heads popping up. Now I’m sure we’ll make good time getting out of the pool and into the house once we’re finished swimming but we want to try it. Is there any problem with doing that? I have always let the pool run all night on nights where the temperature was below freezing just to keep the pipes from freezing. I have Pinch-A-Penny service my pool once a week but they don’t touch the heater. Actually they don’t touch a lot of things but at least the chemicals stay at their proper levels. A couple things I do need for my pool and I don’t know if you can help me or not but I need a new pool light. The type that changes colors and I need a handrail to help enter and exit the pool. Although I’ve stopped drinking if you can only believe that, my friends haven’t and it is becoming more difficult getting out of the pool. The steps are actually quite large and you’re required to take large steps. I don’t want anyone falling. I you know of anyone that can help me with these 2 concerns, I would greatly appreciate it. I know I’ve told you guys just how much we enjoy our heater but I have to say it again. It’s the best investment we’ve made and we all love it…Thanks again for your help and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best Regards, Michael & Mark
