I have a 16-gallon swimming pool in my home. We are going to New York for 6 months. I am really afraid about algae formation in the pool. There are chances of algae formation, especially during the closed time, So I was searching online for the measures to prevent the algae formation and thereby I found an interesting article about the safety measures that has to be implemented during the closed season of swimming pool, http://www.sleepwellsecurity.ca/blog/pool/have-a-pool-house-heres-6-things-you-need-to-do-to-keep-it-safe-during-the-off-season/. I thought to share here because it might be useful for many. Also, I would like to get your advice on the same. Is there anything that I should be focused on while leaving the pool closed.
