Any update on the progress of your build?

Looking good! Can’t wait to see what the wood deck looks like. I’ve only seen concrete or travertine around here. Let me know if you need a hand installing it.

Long story short, I can’t stand looking at my pool. It’s a constant reminder of shoddy work done by both the pool installer and the deck constructor. The pool installer used regular tile grout, and it’s all starting to crack and fall out. We stopped running the tanning ledge spillovers...

I am not having luck finding anyone that’s experienced in installing tile on fiberglass pools in the Austin, TX area. Does anyone have a tile expert they’d recommend?

I’m still trying to find a way to feed 150 gpm to the dedicated pump. Does anyone have a link to a wall port that would work for a fiberglass pool?

Here is a link: we were planning on the RB32-26 https://www.dolphinwaterslides.net/pre-designed-water-slides/ I’ve seen several YouTube videos. The water flowing at the slide entrance is pretty intense.

What would the suction line setup look like for the water features I listed? if I have 3 skimmers just for filtration, what do I use for the XF pump?

You’re correct. The PB’s idea was suggesting connecting the 2nd port to the pump as well. I tried to reiterate that if the pool skimmer could flow 150 gpm, they would have rated it 150 gpm. However, the max flow is rated at 75 gpm. I’d like to find a wall port that can outflow the XF pump I...

Added a couple pictures so everyone can see the progress. Here is everything plumbed up to the VSF pump currently: (all of this is plumbed to go through the C&C 320 filter, IC40 and ultratemp (although ultratemp has a bypass) 1) Slide-2" line (125-150 gpm requirement) 2) Pentair Magic Falls...

Haha! I can just see them being launched down and skipping like a stone across and out of the pool. “Whoops, I accidentally turned it up to 11” Lots of great ideas here. All seem to involve another pump and some plumbing reconfiguration. Thanks again!
