    Default How to cool off your pool

    Screw inch and half pvc with drilled holes onto the jet and run the pump at night. It makes a significant difference in water temperature. Looks redneck as fuck, but i also have stickers on my hunting truck so hate on. I would barely get in the pool this time of year because it was like bath water, this makes it much cooler. Figured I’d pass it on. It’s rather relaxing as well.

    If you give 10 people a bag of gold, someone will complain about how heavy it is!

    I got a gator pond and a bigger gator pond, I’m rich in creatures that can kill a man, bust his skull in a single snap or snag a 90lb lab off a dock. So I reckon I’m blessed to be poor.

    I had a digital thermometer, but the kids like to treat it like a basketball. Needless to say it broke last summer and i haven’t gotten around to replacing it yet. The pool is usually unbearable this time of year, but it was nice and cool yesterday. There is kind of ways to do this on YouTube. I might have $15 into it.

    It makes a huge difference. The more water you move the cooler it gets. This one i just made will drop 270,000 gallons about 7-10 degrees a night depending on air temp, and humidity. This one moves about 4500-5000 gallons an hour, so it will turn around a third of the water over a night.

    I was admiring this one last week. We need to meet. My daughter swims on that team.
