** A large quantity of Accutabs (calcium hypochlorite) and hydrochloric (muriatic) acid will be required. To a lesser extent (depending upon existing inventory), calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and stabilizer will be needed. A new (Taylor) test kit is always required for the season. | ** A large quantity of Accutabs (calcium hypochlorite) and hydrochloric (muriatic) acid will be required.

* Remove the ceiling fans from the large pavilion. As of 2020, duplicate mounts have been installed in the basement ceiling joists for safe storage. Removing the fans is very important; high winds during winter can cause the fans to rotate at high speeds, damaging fan blades and/or the vinyl ceiling of the pavilion. | |||
== Inspections == | |||
* The boiler must be inspected per the insurance company and state. The inspector that visited in August 2020 indicated that the next inspection would not be due until 2023. A CSD-1 form must be filled out as part of (or prior to the inspection). This form is to be kept on-file both near the boiler and in a binder in the club house. | * The boiler must be inspected per the insurance company and state.

** The sump pump in the club house is important, but less crucial. The original drain tile system (from 1967) along with remnants of an internal drain system (added at an unknown date) provide drainage into the city (sanitary) sewer. Prior to 2021, this was the primary drainage system. In an effort to "dry out" the basement, a sump pump (along with new drain tiles) was added in January 2021. | ** The sump pump in the club house is important, but less crucial.

** Relative humidity levels exceeding 70 % have been observed in the club house basement, even in February. It may be necessary to run a dehumidifier even in the winter months. This may require some care (use the timer setting to defrost) as ice build-up at low temperatures is possible. | ** Relative humidity levels exceeding 70 % have been observed in the club house basement, even in February.
