Hello,
My house came with a pool that still contains water, but the system is currently not in operation. As a result, the water looks quite unpleasant.
Before I drain the water, I would like to test the entire system and then clean the pool and related equipment.
Question 1: When I drain the water later, is there a risk that wall tiles might fall off because the water is no longer providing counterpressure?
Question 2: How can I clean the pool cover that appears to have algae and what seems to be lime scale? Please see the photo.
Question 3: There is also a dehumidifier in the pool room, which still runs but no longer reduces humidity. Since it consumes 2,000 watts and is 15 years old, it probably isn’t worth repairing. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good device suitable for a pool room?
Thanks very much for your help!
Best regards,
Stephan

unfortunately, I’ve only just started dealing with the pool.
The system is running, everything is sealed, but it’s not clear whether water circulation is happening.
How can I backwash the filter?
What type of sand is needed if I have to replace it?
Has the water become stagnant by now?
There was algae growth on the cover.
Thank you very much for your help!
