Are you closing your pool or hot tub for the season?

Pools and hot tubs contain chemicals that are harmful to our environment and aquatic life.

When closing your pool or hot tub, ensure the water is drained safely and follow these guidelines:

1)      Chlorinated Pools

-          Dechlorinate water before draining.

-          Drain water slowly onto your property (i.e. your lawn)

2)      Saltwater Pools

-          Salt water should be hauled away by a licensed hauler or slowly released into a sanitary sewer system connection (i.e. a laundry sink) located on your own property.

Never drain any pool or hot tub into a storm drain.  This water goes directly to the environment, untreated, and can harm fish and other wildlife.

By taking these simple steps, you can enjoy your pool and protect the environment!
