Hi All,
I've been doing a lot of watching and reading over the last couple of months and I think it's time to start my own thread as we are probably a couple weeks away from signing on the dotted line. As with all builders in our area they tried to steer us away from salt, but we are going salt anyway based on everything I've read on here and experience in the past (family pools). Our house is just being built, so they will build the pool along with the house, once the exterior of the house is completed, but I included a couple photos of the pool area from the slab they poured last week. I'd love some feedback, especially on the equipment side.
General Specs:
Pool Size: 18'W x 30'L (Water Dimensions)
Pool Depth: 3.5'-5.5' (Water Depths)
Wet Deck: 6'W x 18'L x .5'D
Gallons: Approx.: 18,630
Bench in deep end, entire width of pool
Finishes:
Pool: Wet Edge Primera Stone Sky Blue Treasure
Waterline Tile: Master Tile Subway Stratus White 2x4 Glass Tile
Water Feature Wall: Standing Black Polished RiverRock Tile
Decking: Burl Blanco Limestone (12x24 Runner Pattern)
Coping: Burl Blanco Limestone
Boarder: Black Polished River Rock (Between coping and decking)
Water Features & Lighting:
1x: 8' Jandy Sheer Decent (Any issues with such a wide sheer decent? Considering 2x 4' to avoid issues)
2x: Jandy LED Bubblers
4x: Jandy Laminar Jets
4x 20W Jandy Nicheless Hydrocool LED Lights (Multicolor)
Equipment:
Jandy IAqualink PS-8
Jandy Aquapure Salt
Jandy Fusion w/Nature 2 (I know you guys aren't a fan, what do you recommend?)
Jandy 60SqFt DE Filter (Builder talked us out of a cartridge?)
Jandy VS 2.7HP Filter Pump (Powering Pool & 2 LED Bubblers)
Jandy VS 2.7HP Pump (Powering 8'W Sheer Decent & 4x Laminar Jets)
Cleaner: Robot to be purchased later
Thanks for your input everyone!
