Florida New Build - Pool, Spa, Fireplace

[minimonster17]

Pics of plumbing, electric, and travertine would be great!

Here's a few pics taken by the Mrs. I will upload a few different shots once we're back in the States, as she didn't quite capture the TFP perspective on the equipment, etc.


Pool equipment - Pad is 8' x 3'... You can see they did a nice job in placing the controller and remote on the side wall where it will not be as visible.

This is a shot as they were prepping for the waterline tile.

I've asked our house sitter for a few additional pics, but this might be it until we're back home after the holiday. Feedback welcome!

Wow!!! Look at the size of that overflow line!!!!!!

The equipment pad looks very good and accessible too.

 

[JayBauman]

Wow!!! Look at the size of that overflow line!!!!!!

Is that overflow line, or a service conduit to allow electrics, irrigation, etc.?

 

[kimkats]

Now Jay you know that in zcats world that is the biggest, bestest overflow line ever! LOL

[zethacat]

Oh never mind

You're right, that is obviously for the gas line for the fire pit.

I cannot WAIT to see the wall of fire! -Karen

Ha! Not an overflow line in the forefront of the picture. That is an access for the gas line stem on the fireplace.

You and me both, Karen! I think it's going to get as much use as the spa or pool! My son already asked for a "s'mores stick" for Christmas!

 

[JayBauman]

That was my secret, too. My wife didn't want another pool. Then I said "the design has a fire pit." The permit application was filed 8 days later.

Tile work is underway. I have to say... I love this tile!

 

[Flippy]

I like that tile. Can't wait to see it finished.

 

[RangerBob]

It does look awesome and I'm very envious you are placing the 1x1 all the way around the pool. -Karen

 

[txnole]

A few updated pics, including the skimmer. Love the tile work. Pardon the massive rains we've gotten this week.

 

[Twolabs]

Looking great, that is incredible tile. It will be a conversation piece for sure.

 

[JayBauman]

Pardon the massive rains we've gotten this week.

At least you know it holds water!

 

[Glock]

Atleast you won't have to pay to fill it!

 

[kimkats]

He will have to pay for the bleach bill to clear that up! LOL

That it does! I wonder if the wife will love the muck color instead of pebble!

 

[RangerBob]

1 gallon of bleach will clear that right up (I know - I had to do it twice on my pool build) plus it keeps the mosquitoes away. The tile work does look really nice - they definitely took their time with it. -Karen

 

[kimkats]

Look at those tiny little cuts on the tiles for the skimmer! THAT is good work!

SO close!
