Hi all, I’ve shed some tears over this but I am hopeful you guys can help me with this. Pool installed 10 days ago, electrician came and installed the gfic outlets and bond the pool 2 days after. Scheduled the electrical inspection and during the first visit, he passed my bonding and outlet but couldn’t pass my final until I get him a copy of pool manual with specifications etc. I called the pool seller and she insists there is no such manual. Left the inspector multiple voicemails to clarify and he said to go ahead and schedule final inspection. Well, he came today and I showed him the pool brochure that the seller sends me. He said it’s got steel wall and insists on the manual from manufacturer. He first also wants me to move my pump and outlet but later said that is fine. I called around and tracked down the manufacturer in Canada and called to request the manual to be emailed to me. Did not get it hours later but I reached out to installer and he said there is a cd for it in the stuff he left me. So I sent that to inspector and he said the manual didn’t say specifications etc and I have to get it from manufacturer. So I called Canada again and the customer service said I have to bond at the joint, so remove the upright and do the bonding there. Meanwhile I reached out to my electrician to confirm they didn’t bond the wall and he said everything was visibly plastic and they won’t take apart anything up bond. So at this point I am in tears and not sure what to do. I told inspector everything except wall is resin and he asked me what is the conductivity of the resin. I do not have the answer except the manufacturer said to bond at seam. So now I am trying to figure out if I can remove the upright myself and what else do I need to do so that when electrician come they don’t have to take apart anything and can just do the bonding. Do I need to remove all the bolts and nuts? The electrician said he needs 4 evenly spaced location but customer service said only at the joint bar. I am at my wits end and feels like giving up on the pool (highly hormonal at 8 months preggo).
