In the middle of our pool construction. Just shot concrete on Thursday. I am trying to figure out the plumbing functionality at our equipment pad. We have 4 returns, 1 skimmer, 2 drains and two bubblers. Can someone take a shot and tell me what is what and the functionality of the valves...

Hi wonderful people in TFP land. After about a year of planning, thinking and researching here on TFP, we have a contract! But, before we sign, can this braintrust review it and let us know if we are missing anything or anything that needs to be added/deleted/explained. Thank you in advance...
