    Solar pool light

    I had the same question as someone earlier in this thread - can you use the adhesive on a vinyl liner if the pool can't use the magnets? I emailed their customer support and just got the following reply: "The adhesive we use is solvent-free flexible MS polymer and can be used on vinyl pools as...

    Receiver/Speaker/Wifi Options

    Thanks for the reply. I wanted to go cheaper with an option to upgrade later so I got an Orbi extender for WiFi and a Pyle receiver with 4 basic rock speakers. I haven't buried the wire yet but it sounds good with Pandora linked through bluetooth. I have an outdoor subwoofer ordered that will...

    Receiver/Speaker/Wifi Options

    Thanks for the input. I may try a cheaper route and get an Orbi outdoor repeater for my Linksys router and see where that gets me before digging a trench for a CAT 6 wire. For the speaker - what type of speaker wire would you suggest to bury underground? I don't have Sonos so I'm looking at...

    Receiver/Speaker/Wifi Options

Every internet search I've done so far ends up...

    Rebuild - any regrets or gotchas?

    Thanks for the reply. So far the only lighting I considered was outdoor string light using the outlets around the pool. I'll do more research on other landscape lighting options. I did consider just putting a bigger conduit in the ground to hopefully future proof other needs. That's something I...

    Rebuild - any regrets or gotchas?

    I'm in the middle of a delayed refurbishing of my pool area. Currently I've had a new fence installed and will be replacing all mechanicals and restoring a return that failed a few years ago. After that the concrete will go in and hopefully everything will work fine for years to come. Before...
