Hello everyone!
Hoping for your advice on the pool we just ordered for the summer with grim possibility of not having community pools for summer. We have plans on building a nice gunite pool by next summer so don't want to buy anything unnecessary twice like heater or SWG.
Temporary Pool Specs:
Intex Ultra XTR 16' x 32', 52" deep 14,364 gallons
110-120 V "Krystal Clear" Sand Filter Pump w/ 2,800 GPH pump flow and "hydro aeration technology"
In picture the pool will run with gravel driveway a couple inches from edge as this part of driveway is very rarely used and end where the board and tree are marked with flagging tape.
Long Term Pool
Gunite probably under 40,000 gals and salt water system with smart system that everyone seems to love.
So gas heater? It will be mostly shaded even though we are taking down the two big trees. The flagged one and the tall one behind the Holly trees. The gas to the house is only 40-50 feet away from main pool hook up location going under gravel driveway. Also will need some kind of extension electrical source to run under gravel. Was thinking a thick pvc pipe and an outside rated extension cord?
SWG? The system doesn't come set up this way but it's my understanding that I would just need an SWG? So just like the heater hoping for one that will work with Intex and Gunite...if that's possible?
Is there anything else I am not taking into consideration that we will need? I really appreciate your advice or any thoughts? I have been learning about gunite for the last year but not sure if things are interchangable? Also we are going to get a professional to level the ground for us.
