Last year we had a flood in our backyard due to heavy rain, because we went on vacation for a week with the whole family and forgot to cover the pool, it overflowed with rainwater and flooded our entire property. Can you please advise how we can avoid this in the future? I would hate to face this again.

We had the same problem last summer, just overnight a heavy rain overflowed our pool and flooded our entire lot. The consequences of this flood we cleaned up for a very long time. And to prevent such a situation, we ordered the installation of a pool overflow system, removing extra liquid from above the swimming pool and thus prevents it from flooding. I advise you to set up such a system, you can learn more about it here https://ponddoc.com/blog/how-does-a-pool-overflow-system-work .
