Where to buy pool coping (travertine) and pool tile near Austin, TX ? Is online store like travertinemart.com is good ?
Looking for recommendations for placing channel drain/ decco drain.
Concrete will be poured covering all the down spouts.
My question was whether it needs to placed throughout the perimeter of the pool and house or only few places ? In this case I might need to have through out backside of the house. Do you have any recommendation for channel drains ? I'm thinking about using something like pouralid channel drain - Pouralid Channel Drain System. Also, running channel drain throughout the perimeter might cost me over $1000 :-(Place the channel drains between to house and the pool.
Use channel drains that have a removeable top and can be opened and cleaned out. Use wide channel drains that will not clog easily with debris.
What does that mean? Down spouts from where?

Yes. I do have gutters throughout the house. In the attached picture I have marked the down spouts.You are trying to keep water from flowing to your house. Any areas without a drain will be a channel for water to get to your slab and doorways.
The deck should be sloped away from the house and away from the pool towards the drains.
Depending on the position of the drains and your house roof overhang water coming off your roof may flow into the drains or if after the drains you will have the roof runoff into the pool.
Do you have gutters on your roof?
You have to consider water flow and water management along the deck between the house and the pool and where the water will flow to.
I have no experience with them.
Water damage will cost a lot more then that.
No. It don't.Does water overflow your gutters in heavy rain?
You probably will need to modify the back wall gunite and plumbing where you will use the back port waterfall.I’m doing a owner build, gunite is done with two waterfall feature using bottom port on the raised wall, pvc is capped off for now. I’m planning to use CMP Brilliant Wonder LED 24” with 6” lip bottom port. Since it is really difficult to find bottom port anywhere, is it possible to buy back port and changing the plumbing somehow ? What options do I have ?
No. I don’t. I’ll get it if that change is doable. Which you’re saying it can be done.You probably will need to modify the back wall gunite and plumbing where you will use the back port waterfall.
Have you obtained the back port waterfall?
I would have on hand whatever you are using before making any modifications.
