Hi all, for my final inspection, I would need to install alarms on all doors and windows with access to the pool area. The alarms must have a bypass options, but I dont seem to be able to find any where it is specified that they have that. Any of you have those you can recommend? I have two...

Hi all, I have a new pool (NTB Mini Pebbles) with plaster installed two months ago. I am very attentative with the chemistry, and measure most parameters several times a week. I feel that pH keeps crawling every time I adjust it to 7.5 it gets up to 8.3 or so within 4-5 days. So I am probably...

Hi all, I have a PureChlor SWG, with a timer on the panel. I have currently set it to run for app 8 hours (the pump runs for 10 hours a day at 10m3 per hour, the pool is 38m3 or 10k gal). There is 3500 ppm salt in the pool. I cannot find any instruction on how long time the SWG should run for...

Hi all, I have a couple of sunbrella holders (sleeves) in our pool, which is built in the concrete. The model is Aquastar US101, and the inner diameter of the sleeve is 1 5/8. Now, most umbrellas the pole is 1.5", which I am afraid will be very wobbly and perhaps damage the sleeve (which is...

Anyone know what brand/type this drain is? Thanks

Hi all, I am in the process of designing a marble shelf for our overflow from the spa to the pool. I read some issues reg water "sticking" to the material, and not making a waterflow. So I was wondering how I could make the shelf so it has a water drip line. Should I ask the marble guy to, when...

Hi all, Our shell is just shot three days ago. I have noticed one place where the cardboard is placed there is a string they used for swimout marking string is pushing the cardboard out at one point, so the regular 8 inch wall thickness becomes very thin (my guess is 3-4 in) and then below and...

Hi all, we are just about getting our pool made (shot the concrete this week), and I will prob. going to have lots of questions and recommendations from you guys. We are doing it a bit unusual here in FL, where we are hiring the subcontractors, and building it our "own" as owner-builder...

Hi all, (Im new here). What is your experience with applying finish/plaster (stonescape) after the concrete has been poured (shot)? I read some different messages times everything from 7 days to 28 days... IS there any considerations reg. coping and water line tiles? I assume these can be...
