    that was my second thought as well.

        Exact same here, power off at 2am and i was flying out of bed to get out there. At that time i was unaware of exactly how to winterize, but drained everything i could find. I will definitely be draining in the future when cold weather hits and I will be doing it days ahead of time when it's daylight and warmer.

        So far the only thing I'm noticing is extra bubbles coming out of nearest pool jet, which may be normal at first startup.

          Unfortunately by the time I woke up my were already frozen. Multiple busted pipes and the busted heater manifold. I pooped it for now until the chinamen make the parts.

            Did you drain yours? I am not sure if you have said yet?
