The warm weather is here and it’s time to get your pool ready for use. Pool Scouts of Chattanooga owner Sonya St. Cin said that now is the time to uncover your pool to avoid the growth of algae and bacteria.

She said if you didn’t uncover your pool in March, you should uncover it now.
“Hopefully they’ve had it covered for the winter,” she said. “In that case, you also probably will have to put the plugs back in your equipment and take the plugs out of the pool itself and get the water running again. Get all the equipment tested out and make sure it works fine before you do anything else.”…
