Is it ok to leave the Elgin pool without water?

It is not advisable. The plaster inside the pool will lose strength if not maintained within chemically stable conditions. Climatic conditions can also contribute to the damage.

Certainly no. This should be done only when a general cleaning is necessary. The swimming pool's plaster floor will diminish in the sun with no balanced water to safeguard it. Even so, the most significant concern which might develop from a clear pool is that the water table underneath the pool may actually elevate the pool or pop the pool area which may cause expensive damages.
