Currently have the 3400 vsp setup that came with my pool. No water features, only the spa, 25k SWG pool. I've already had a scare with the "drive error" message which fixed itself and also multiple fuses blown on the SWG. Now the motor is whining and my guess it's ready to fail. Instead of...

Well we've been done for about 1 month, but finally got around to taking some pics of the finished product. Overall we're extremely happy with how everything turned out. Still have some minor things to finish like outdoor speaker system, but it's pretty close to complete. My build thread is...

With 5 kids in the family there was no question that we needed some sort of safety device to prevent drownings. The 2 most obvious choices were the safety fence and the safety net. Our thinking process... Fence: Pros: Easy access to pool. Always "on" providing a barrier. Can be taken...

I have a new pool (bout a wk old) which had an acid startup. MY TA is 0 and my PH is below 6.8. I don't really notice much plaster dust when I brush. Should I just keep brushing and let the PH get back up? Raise TA as well?

As a spin off from another thread... Was wondering if it is beneficial to use water supplied from my home water softener to maintain water level in my pool? I'm not sure how the water chemistry would be affected, but if I can save on some chemicals then I'm all for it. I'll be using an SWG...

We’re a family of 7 who spend lots of time outside and have really wanted a pool for quite some time. My plan is to chronicle all the stages of the build as well as use this experience to help others. Well we finally saved up some money so let’s get this thing started. Fortunately we have a...

Current in the process of getting quotes for our new pool. Excited about all the information I've been finding on here for that past few weeks. Figured I'd register and get with the program. I'll be sure to start a separate thread on the build....
