I wish I understood electricity better but I don’t. How is sticking a metal pole in my concrete decking different from sticking a metal pole in concrete block on top of the decking different? From the perspective of why bonding is required.

Thanks for the idea, looks pretty cool. Although it’s hard to believe there isn’t a way to install a permanent one after the decking is down. Hopefully I get some more input

Built my pool 3 years ago and just asked if my builder could install this into the decking. They said there is no way to do the bonding after the decking is installed. Am I missing something here? Would have to think it’s possible

This company, Raynor, uses a cable system that keeps it tight around the rocks and spa. Still waiting on info/quote from Merlin. But my builder hinted it would be at least 50% more than my 4500 quote and that nobody could do it 4500. Obviously they want the sale but don’t think they can match...

Depending how steep the hill is, you could keep the slope and use boulders, plants, mulch to retain. My project would have required a 10ft retaining wall my hill was so large. Did a gradual slope instead 700 sqft +100 sqft sun shelf + 50 sqft spa. //// Jandy ePump 2.7 HP //// Jandy...

Could use some help here. Just finishing up our first pool season. Now time to buy a cover. My builder uses Merlin and will be getting me a quote shortly. I went to poolcoversdirect.com and they had someone come out and measure and provide a quote on their “mighty mesh” product. It was 4500 for...

Etsy is great for custom stuff you won’t see at anyone else’s house. Bed bath beyond has a bunch of matgaritaville stuff right now. eBay sometimes has the same stuff as Etsy but cheaper. 700 sqft +100 sqft sun shelf + 50 sqft spa. //// Jandy ePump 2.7 HP //// Jandy aquapure 1400 SWG /// Wet...

I have DE filter. He said to put that stuff in the skimmer after every backwash. I’m not sure if I have metal in my water. I do have hard well water. Everyone keeps saying to just keep this and that under control and I’m fine. But how do I keep These readings under control? What ingredients do...

So my pool builder just turned over the pool to me for care. They gave me these and gave a weekly schedule for adding these. Also want me to add 6-7 chlorine pucks per week. Are any of these useful if I’m using the tf100 kit and TFP methods? If not, what basic ingredients do I need to buy in...

Forgot to mention the amp. Yes, I have an amp connected to the sonos connect. I prefer this method because you can get a more powerful amp and drive more speakers. I have a 12 channel amp but I’m only using 6 so far 700 sqft +100 sqft sun shelf + 50 sqft spa. //// Jandy ePump 2.7 HP ////...

I did a 400k btu propane heater because I have a hot tub and no access to natural gas which would have been better. At my current price of propane of $1.80 I figured it cost me $7.00 per hour to run the heater and it raises the pool temp 3 degrees in 2 hours. I’ll probably try to add a cost...

I did rock speakers by TIC audio. You buy direct from the company on eBay. Or other sources might have deals too. I did the TFS 25 because it is 360degrees and gets partially buried to help with bass. They are wired speakers but I play them through a sonos connect to be able to play from my...

Now that I have the kit, what other supplies/ingredients should I buy to make the necessary adjustments when it tells me something is off. Where to buy those?

Thanks, for now I’ll order the kit, plus tf100 salt kit and automatic stir kit

Hi guys, I’m going to buy the ft100 for my new saltwater pool. There are a bunch of optional add ons. Do I need the saltwater add on? Are any of the others recommended?

PA weather has been horrible since March! Snow all March and Into April, then constant rain. All the builders are backed up so don’t feel bad. I feel your pain though.

Finally finished! 13 months after breaking ground! Thanks to 2 bad winters here. Worth the wait though! The builder is still running the chemicals at this point. We only filled it up 7 days ago so no heater and no SWG yet. No robot vacuum. Lots and lots of brushing the wet edge pebble.

I just filled my pool last week. I’m just trying to understand the basic principals of water chemistry. What makes the TFP methods better than what other normal methods people might use? What is different about the TFP method? Does it matter if I have a SWG?

Very hard choice. If we had gone with quartz, we really liked stone scapes st Martin color! St. Martin Shade Gallery || National Pool Tile Group

I’m a new pool owner. Is there a spray of some other stuff you apply and can scrub it off with a brush?

61 degrees but we jumped in!

Finally finished! 13 months later

I also did a pool with a very similar hill and swail. We’ll see how the water runoff works out this summer because we didn’t finish the pool before winter. You could run an awesome slide down that hill into the pool! I didn’t do it, but my builder wanted me to You can see my build thread for...

Love it! I’m using their evergreen color which is less green. I’m adding black pebbles to it

I love it. I’m doing something similar in April when my build gets finished
