Should I drain the pool if it is overfull?

Steve's Pool Services
During the dry season, definitely not. If we get enough rain at this time of year to overfill the pool you can rest assured it will not last and within a very short space of time the water will evaporate off again. During the wet season I only recommend you drain the pool if it is going to overflow to somewhere that you don't want the water to be (like your lounge room!) or if there are lots of leaves in the pool that need to be skimmed off. This could be a number of things.

Will I need to drain my pool when I install my Sigma III?

Sigma Water Systems ~ Frequently Asked Questions
NO. If you are currently using chlorine (or bromine in a spa) the Sigma III can be installed without making any changes to the water. The chlorine will slowly dissipate, and you will have a chlorine-free pool in no time. If you are using some type of alternative chemical, like Baquacil, you will need to put in certain chemicals that neutralize the Baquacil before putting the Sigma III in, much like converting back to chlorine. You should be able to find those chemicals at your local pool store.

What is a drain?

Drains and Sewers
A drain is a pipe, which conveys either foul water (sink / bath / toilet etc.) or surface water (rain) from one house only.
