Ok. The photo will show you what I'm looking at tree wise. The limbs overhang roughly half of the backyard and at least one of the root systems is responsible for lifting part of the concrete slab the storage bldg sits on. Which is why it no longer sits level :| Even if I removed all of MY...

A previous builder landed at $47k for the pool but didn't want to deal with the enclosure supports under the decking. So that proposal sits in the file atm. However, there is another consideration that isn't present on my drawing because I was lazy and didn't want to model them all out. The...

Chuckle. The price of the pool just keeps going up. Will be at $60k+ before it's all said and done and it's a dead simple design with no water features. @grumpiebk I'll have to figure out which automation system they're wanting to install. I won't need the gold-plated, top of the line...

@JoyfulNoise The Northern Edge of the decking is one foot shy of the Easement restriction boundary. In addition, the East side restriction extends six feet out from the property line. So I can get it close into that corner, but not quite all the way into it. The PB still wants to put...

Okay, played some more in the CAD program. Modified the pool for at least a five foot standoff from the AC unit. ( Six feet to waters edge ) ( I do the drawing so I can visualize where stuff is and if it will fit. Also helps me describe to the PB what I'm thinking ) Pulled the measurements...

@JoyfulNoise Oh I have spent many, Many, MANY hours in my CAD program doing exactly that. I've probably built a dozen different pool and spa designs of different shapes and sizes before settling on how it exists today. I setup the grid and tolerances down to the inch so I can visualize...

Can't move the compressor. Two reasons. 1) Cost. This project is already at the $90k price range and having the AC company move the compressor, do all the electrical and plumbing work is easily going to run in the thousands of dollars to do. 2) Location. Moving the unit outside of the...

Hmmm looks like from what I'm reading, the minimum distance between the AC unit and the pool needs to be five feet. Not sure where they will start the measurement from though. The interior wall of the pool or the outer edge of the coping. ( which is ~1 ft difference ) Moving the A/C...

I've had no issues with my current PB. Once he's back in from the job sites he's on today, he'll shoot me the updates. Here is an updated version of the drawing to show the enclosure concept. I did get lazy in building it, but it should give you an idea of the size and placement of it. I...

The PB will probably respond to my email I sent them last night sometime today, so I'll let you know what they say about all the equipment. Some of them get rather frustrated when I ask for this information thinking I'm shopping online for whatever deals are to be had out there, but that...

Okay, long day but now have the proposal in front of me. It doesn't give as much information as I thought it did, but this is what it does say: Pump: Hayward Tristar Variable Speed ( Model number not disclosed ) Filter: Hayward C2002 Cartridge ( have to get clarification as I cannot...

Ok. The noise may not be too terrible ( we can barely hear the AC unit when it's running ) but you're probably spot on about the plumbing. The only other space I can think of would sit outside of the enclosure on the East side of the pool. ( In mosquito territory lol ) Will have to run the...
