    We do not recommend that you apply Tempo SC Ultra to the pool. We never heard reports of it harming the vinyl but do not suggest the application. It would be best to treat the areas surrounding the pool listed on the product label.

    Q
    Do you need to unplug your refrigerator before you spray Tempo SC Ultra?
    Someone told me if you left your refrigerator plugged up while spraying in under it, the motor would suck the spray up inside of it. I need to know if that's a possibility.
    A

    When using Tempo SC Ultra you should direct spray into the cracks and crevices behind the refrigerator by pulling it out and doing so.  We have a great video that shows where to spray for perimeter and interior spraying. Please click on the link here to see the video.
