so your saying no pool has ever been drained without poking holes in it. how the hell you gonna paint or replaster with holes in your pool.
It depends on where you are and the conditions during the season. If you are in south Louisiana, in some places the water table during some seasons is only a few feet below the grade. In other places of higher altitude, the water table will never be that high in any season. It just depends. The risk is if you live in an area with a high and fluctuating water table and you just decide to guess.
The intense power of underground water is shocking. I was involved in a situation once where a long length of heavy sewer drain pipe was installed across an open field to link a development with the existing system. The contractors did not reinforce the trench correctly and the rising water table crushed the pipe from underneath. I had never realized that the seasonal water table fluctuations could be so forceful.
