    Should I upgrade to Jandy watercolor LED from incandescent?

    I paid $600 to upgrade to the Jandy watercolor and love it. Get it or you will regret it the first time you see one in somebody else's pool.

    Music outside

    I ran wires from my Reciever in living room to 2 outdoor speakers hung under soffit. If you have an AV Reciever in your house and it has multiple zones, you can do this. If you don't, then use this as an excuse to get one lol The speakers are 100 each JBL's and for the money they sound amazing

    Re: New pool in south Florida need help on finish! I'm in your area. I hope you don't have the same builder we used. The pool came out ok but there were some issues. Anyways, we went with blue granite pebble sheen and it is beautiful. We also have Ivory travertine.

    Verify test results

    I recently had someone by to "balance" our new pool. I could have done this myself but figured if the builder is covering it, Id let their sub use his chemicals. I tested water this morning at work. I'm a water treatment plant operator and have the best testing equipment money can buy and fresh...

    Looking for a cost effective music system for covered patio.

    I have 2 outdoor speakers that I wired to my living room receiver. Zone A is living room surround sound. Zone B is outdoor speakers. This is the perfect excuse for your new home theater system.
