I have the Hayward SP32900VSP and have programmed a timer to run it at 1150 rpm for 11 hrs from 8a - 7p. This equates to 30 gpm which turns my 10,000 gallon pool over twice a day. However, when I'm swimming I may want to operate my fountains which requires a higher speed. I push a preset speed...

My pool is pretty much finished, but the auto fill mechanism and box is higher than the coping. I am about to pour a concrete deck and this will obviously stand proud, especially since the concrete should slope away from the pool. Is this normal? Is it easy to lower without affecting the water line?

Romex should never have been used. It's not rated for burial or conduit. Only inside a house. If you're able to pull it out, then you can certainly pull in THWN wire. Tie it to the Romex and use the Romex to pull it in.

13" x 24", is that a pool for ants? :)

Near the Medical Center south of Rice.

Thanks. I heard fiberglass is not good for expansive soils like Houston.

We have a small backyard and would like to put in a small (maybe 10 x 20 or smaller) rectangular pool. Very simple. Just something to cool down in during the summer. Does anyone have a rough estimate of the cost? Recommended builders? Thanks for any help.
