Cold Water Startups

Jarred and Eric talk about pool startups in the fall and winter when the water is cold. The primary differences are where to set calcium hardness levels, how to add SC-1000 properly, and to let the plaster/cement dry for a few hours before turning the water on. Also, don't add salt in the fall, and if the pool is ugly, let it be ugly until springtime.
