Re: HELP! Your Input Needed - Pool Build Central FL) Midnight Blue

Re: Pool Build - California Dreaming This is one of those pool builds that I cannot wait to see completed. This was one of the first ones I followed and it is truly amazing. Congratulations.

Re: Central Florida here...Just signed our contract, so exci Good luck with your pool build. Looking forward to seeing the pictures!

Thank you very much. It was a lot of hard work. Amazingly, I think we put in more total hours than the pool builder. Especially when you consider all of the supervising I had to do. :whip:

The pool is finished!! This is the initial fill. (kind of scary looking water coming out of our faucets. the fire-up crew said you should see Port Orange, FL) This color concerned us, which gave rise to this thread, Help-Water Color.... After hearing from people here, we were hopeful that it...

I know you can get this heat pump for about $3,600 to your door. We negotiated ours into the quote. They say that the BTU's of this is supposed to be 110,000. I don't know just how true that is though. You can look up our model, it is a Rheem 6350TI-E HC.

Thanks, I am starting to feel better.

Hard to tell from that picture, it does look kind of blue/green, but with the water feature it is hard to tell. Does anyone have any pictures to make us feel better? We went from an incredible high today to a very definite low. (not that there's anything wrong with it. "Seinfeld")

Fill water is coming from house supply ( city water)

Well, we have been having a pool built for the past 2 months. We told the salesman we wanted a blue pool. The interior finish company came today and applied the interior finish (see signature for build). The pool has been filling for about 8 hours now and is up to the shallow end, and the water...

Still filling, but after 4 1/2 hours, about 2600 gallons. There is one nice thing about smoking hot Florida summers. The water where it is filled so far is reading about 88 degrees. So we will not be waiting for the heater to get the pool temp up. In fact, I believe we will be using the cooling...

The day is here! Interior guys showed up bright and early. After washing and cleaning the interior, they start. No concrete pump needed just two guys with wheelbarrows. Spreading it around. Rinsing the cream off to expose the quartz. They finished in about 5 hours, then filling began...

Also today, we had a safety inspection from the county, which needed to be done so they could finish the pool and fill it. I have been changing the gates to swing to the outside, moving latches to at least 54 inches high, etc., etc. Now the problem. For 2 weeks the gates would self close...
