    Pump recommendation - replacing Hayward SP2300VSP

    How do I remove these covers?!?

    Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice appreciated!

    Re: Under Construction - Absolute DISASTER. Advice apprecia It was back filled somewhere around May 10-14... I have to check my files and pictures further in the morning to get an exact date. The concrete was poured May 30... So it was 2 to 3 weeks between backfill and the pour.
