Pool unused for 3 years. Need help

over40
11 years ago

We are buying a house with a 15 x 30 pool and it was left full for 3 years. The pump was removed. The pool has a 2 x 6 framework over it, and remnants of a plactic cover (visqueen?)

The water looks black, from what we can see. Not much light, and can't get too close to it.

Is draining it, cleaning, pressure testing the piping, the way to go, before installing a new pump?

Is it sane to think the pool could be cleaned without draining?

I wouldn't want to suck up debris into the pipes and cause big problems.

Thanks for any help
