Beautiful! I know your enjoying that!

Wow! That is one awesome pool!

If I go with say, a Hayward XStream filter/pump combo that just plugs in, but I want an Aquarite SWG, which is hard wired, how will that work exactly? I plan on having an electrician do wiring from the house to the pool but I am curious about it. The pump and SWG would need to be working...

Am I right to assume that I can use an in-ground cartridge filter system on an above-groud pool? While just browsing through them, I have noticed that the above ground systems just seem small. I can get a much bigger one that's listed as in-ground. We are looking at pools in the 27ft by...

Thanks for the info! I found a few threads with pics and information about it.

Thanks everyone. I too, from what I have read about them don't think they are going to be reliable really. I planned to install some sort of alarm on the fence gate. Figured we could find one of those that would work well. Plus there will be a padlock on the gate too. May seem like...

The state of Tennessee requires you to have a pool alarm. Though I know plenty that don't. Not the point...anyways, I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with any that they could recommend for a new above ground pool build. From what I have read, you can't pass the electrical...

Has anyone had any experience with the above ground pool fencing that attaches to the pool uprights? I am planning on building a fence around the pool anyways but was wondering about the other though. Opinions, experience anyone? Just trying to plan ahead some for when we get a more permanent...

Sorry about that. My typing got ahead of my brain. The T-Cell 15 (40,000 gal) is 1.40lbs. The T-Cell 9 (25,000 gal) is .70lbs. And the T-Cell 3 (15,000 gal) is .60lbs. But like I said, that is just a saltwater system seller site giving the lbs numbers. So you can take that with a grain of...

From what I could find, the Hayward t15 is .60lbs per day. The other two models are the 25 at .70lbs per day and the 40 at 1.40lbs per day. I found that on a site that sells saltwater systems. So not sure how reliable that is but maybe it's in the ballpark for figures.

So the Aquarite is in-ground. But would still be fine with an above ground I take it? So can that be wired to somehow run with the pump during normal pump run time but is there a way to have it where you can run the pump without the swag too?

I am curious about this also. Hopefully someone can shed some light on the matter. I have been looking at the Aquatrol also, but estimating that our new pool will hold a bit over 18,000 I suppose I should go Aquarite for 25,000. But it's an in-ground system. So I have been wondering the same...

Thank you everyone!

I understand that you need to have a close estimate of how many gallons of water your pool contains for proper adding of your chemicals. But what is the best way to figure out about how many gallons your pool holds?

Sorry about those parts. I keep reading about that happening to people but we still want a Matrix and will order it plenty early before season so we can try to get replacement parts too if needed! Hope you get that settled soon so you can begin enjoying your new pool!
