Hello all, are there any cheap alternatives to the expensive in pool lounge chairs? I really don't want to put my cheap fold out lounge chairs in pool. Thanks

Not too big... So I talked to a local pool service guy and he gave me 3 options...replace the gasket $100...replace with a refurbish pump $300 or replace with a new variable pump $1000-$1200...what do you guys think...

No spa...I have no clue why they installed a 2hp...maybe two waterfalls?

Thanks for the responses...the pump is about 8-9 years old....do you guys think it's more cost effective to replace it?..I'm thinking if I get it fixed I would still need to replace it in a few years...
