== | == Off-Season Tasks == | ||
During the off-season, it is important to periodically visit the club and walk the grounds. Look for: | |||
* Water in the clubhouse basement or lower level of the pump house. Verify that the sump pumps and heat tape are functional (particularly in the cold months). | |||
* Signs of potential animal entry into the clubhouse, pump house, or shed. | |||
* Signs of vandalism or unauthorized entry to the club. | |||
* Damage to facilities due to major weather events. | |||
* Excessive pool water level. During closing, the pool level is reduced to about 18" below the gutter level. This allows for some amount of fill during the off-season without risking gutter freeze. If the water level approaches the gutter level (within a few inches), drainage or pumping down may be required. | |||
== Other Tasks == | |||
