Last year I emptied it and scrubbed it down. This year it was even worse
with leaves and debris on the bottom. The problem is since it is vinyl
lined with folds in the bottom, it is very hard to get the muck cleaned
out. Also we don't have a drain so I have to siphon the water out, so I
can't use water pressure to clean in the folds.

Hi Sheila, have you tried a shop vac after you've gotten it empty? ~ jan

Jan,

I drained it a couple days ago and am waiting for it to completely dry
and that is what I was going to try next. It rained that night a couple
inches and we had company all day today, so I haven't tried it yet.



Thanks for the suggestion.

Sheila
