Haha. Thank you, all! I’m a pool newbie and this forum has been so helpful with the build process. Now I’m going to do all the reading for maintaining properly and will order the recommmended kit! Tonight will be our first swim!

I should have mentioned that we went with a SWG but that does not get started for several more weeks.
