That's why we do it too. Thanks!

Do you cover your pool every winter? We live in NC and this is our second year owning an above ground pool. We did cover it last year. However, our neighbor owns a pool cleaning company and he never covers his. I've seen others that are not covered too. Thoughts?

The first item is unavailable and the 2nd is just one piece. Is there some place that sells the whole kit? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So basically, it's a must? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We are still planning on bonding. But when my husband talked to the electrician again today, he said he would def recommend it if we had lights. But if we want peace of mind, he will do it. My husband also called the store where we bought the pool and they said we didn't need to unless it was...

Ok, my husband just clarified and said that the electrician also took a pole and that is wired to the pump and stuck it way down in the ground. This is in addition to the new receptacle running to our breaker box. So in addition, we still need a bonding ring? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using...

I am definitely going to do it. It's bothering me that it's not done now. Can't risk it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The majority of owners locally don't seem to bond them. Just ground them. But the internet says to. So hence my confusion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We installed an 18' foot above ground pool; 52" deep. The electrician made a new properly grounded receptical that runs to the breaker. He said that it doesn't need to be bonded. I feel like it should. Do most of you have yours bonded? The pump also got tripped somehow after heavy rain this...

Gotcha! Thanks!

I tired to add a pic via my phone bit couldn't find where to do it. Help? Lol.

Locust! :) Hubby already went to the pool store. Lol. One thing they told him is that bromine is only for indoor pools. Is this correct? He didn't spend too much, but I still feel like we aren't doing things right. - - - Updated - - - Oh and they gave him tests strips for testing the water...

Actually Stanly County right at the border. On city/town water, not well. :)

Thank you very much! I will read and re-read all the info you told me to and pick up the items you suggested. We are right outside of Charlotte actually, in the Midland area.

I'm such a newbie that I don't even know what CYA and TF100 are. :( The pool comes with a maintenance kit, which I thought was the chemicals, but now I don't. I can def go get those items tomorrow. The guy at the pool supply store said to bring the water in for testing before adding chemicals.

I posted this question in a thread of mine from last week, but decided to post here. Originally my electrician was coming out before the installation of our pool. But the installer told me to have him come out after the installation so the electrician will then know where the pump sits, etc...

Another question! Originally the electrician was coming out before the installation. But the installer told me to have him come out after the installation so the electrician will then know where the pump sits, etc. Pool is being installed tomorrow. Doesn't the electrician need to come ASAP after...

Thank you all! :D

I just want to keep my family safe and not get shocked. :D So I want to make sure my electrician knows what he's doing! Mine is 18' and 52" tall.

Good questions Joshhighley! I would like to know too.

Thanks!!

Thank you Dave!!

Thanks!

Should bonding also be done too?

I always thought pumps ran 24/7! :D

So the pump doesn't run 24/7, it's on a timer?

Can we run the pump while in the pool?

Hi all, We are having our 18' Heritage above ground pool installed soon. We have called an electrician to come out. I am so confused at what have the electrician do and how to keep everyone safe swimming. Do we unplug the pump before getting in? What all do I need to know and do? Thanks, Ashley
