We are about to start a new in ground pool build. I have had an Intex pool for quite a few years. We have space limitations in the backyard and have a PUE for raised power lines over our fence. We are trying to get to a 12-foot-wide pool but that would leave 4 1/2 feet from pool edge to house edge for a walkway.. I have to use the walkway between the pool and house for things like a baseball pitching machine, lawn mower for the front yard etc ... Any thoughts on the space being too tight?
