i was wondering if i made the right choice on the filteration DE vs cartridge. It so much reading and effort. I talked to my neighbour he loves his DE and the other neightbour loves his cartridge. its like a toss up these days.

Don't look back on your choice of filter (or anything else!) Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda..

electric is now complete at least from the pool standpoint stil have the patio and all that other jazz to complete.

They are starting today to lay the ground work for the decking. I added some extra deck as it didnt look right when they drew it out on the paint. added about another 80 sq ft of deck on the other side where my fire pit is going in

Our build seems to be going a lot like yours, just flying along. Unfortunately for every day of work our builder has done, we've had to wait an average of five for city inspections! Today we are in the same place you are, just waiting for the deck. We ended up adding a little more deck at the last minute to make sure the table and chairs we are putting on it wouldn't be too tight. It was a last minute change and our construction supervisor just left us a can of spray paint to lay out the addition ourselves!
I'll second what others have said here, don't second guess your filter choice. I grew up with DE, and you will love the clarity it gives the first time you turn on your pool light at night!

decking will be poured on Monday as you stated dang city inspections are slowing the process not hte weather. we been having a very mild winter it seems but that can always change in texas

 

[TT300ZRCR]

wow inspection taking a longer than usual this week. Just waiting on inspection before pouring the deck. I would estimate another 2-3 weeks and we should be complete.

 

[Helen203]

Looking forward to seeing how water cascades from your spa!

 

[TT300ZRCR]

finally inspection is complete but little cold this week for them to pour the deck. They want to wait till Friday when its little warmer.

 

[kimkats]

Better safe that sorry at this point for sure! What is a couple more days??

Kim

 

[TT300ZRCR]

finally got some time with all the kids activities this week to post up some new pictures. They completed the decking and now its on to the final things roughly 1100 sq feet of decking was poured.

Looks great! It's going to be really nice. My build didn't hit any weather snags and went from dig to water in three weeks.

 

[TT300ZRCR]

does anyone have any reccomendations on screening the equipment
