Before Draining Your Pool or Spa...

Check out our safe draining tips!

Summer is almost here! Before draining your pool, hot tub, or fountain, make sure the water goes to the right place.

Discharge water to a sanitary sewer clean-out, not the street or storm drain. Storm drains flow untreated to local creeks and the Bay, where pool chemicals can affect water quality and harm plants and aquatic wildlife.
