I wasn't here when the base went in, only saw it after it was compacted (pretty sure it was compacted to 95% of what they thought was "good"). The settling I think has only been noticed by me. Not very much at all, but slightly around the poured in place coping, skimmer box. Pool deck is not...

I just saw this post and started reading through your build post, beautiful yard/pool. We had the company doing our re-plaster/plumbing etc. install concrete pavers. Our old concrete was a mess. Initially, they weren't going to put down the membrane but I insisted on it, because we have a...

Check out this pump at the link below. Don't know anyone who has one yet though. http://www.pentairpool.com/products/pumps-inground-supermax-vs-variable-speed-pump-463.htm

Hey, I was just speaking with a Vendor we use at work and he mentioned these "easy i/o" controllers he is using and building programs for. Believe he mentioned the "workbench" is internal to the controller as well. Check out the website. Easyio Internet based Bacnet, Sedona, Modbus.....I...

I've had the same thing happen with my pump a few times over the last couple of years. Each time it has self-corrected with a simple cycle of the power. I did see the thread you mentioned as well and anticipate having to open my panel up in the near future for a look.

I'm not really sure what the purpose for the stat is in your situation. I do refrigeration and use these all the time L36-931 | Johnson Controls | A19ABC-24C | Johnstone Supply If you suspect this stat as being your problem, why not just jump it out and see if it corrects your timer/pump issue?

Ours was 1-1/2" at well over 20k gallons. We remodeled, shallowed pool to 16K play pool and went with 2" plumbing. Very happy with the versatility I have now in combination with the intelliflo pump and larger 60sf de filter.

Heynow! I was locked out of my old Email acct. and forgot my password for this forum :brickwall: as I haven't been here in probably a year. I previously was "ColdAirGuy", and had a little bit of post history and a sweet "Lifetime Supporter" badge :sad: Anyway, Just wondering if it's at all...

Don't have any suggestions, but just wanted to say I have the same tile and love it. Mastertile

I asked my PB about this and said it's generally a waste of time and money to require a crush test with shotcrete and most inspectors in different cities never ask for a crush test. He left me a bucket's worth just in case.

It went just fine actually. I took the bucket of shotcrete to a testing facility near my house and they cored 4 samples from it. The engineering spec'd that it had to meet or exceed the strength designated at 28 days. I convinced them to do it at 4 days on one sample and it easily passed. All...

I never got around to posting the final pictures for our remodel. Yesterday we had our first pool/Birthday party for my little munchkin. It all went well, although I did find food in the pool this morning :suspect: and my Chlorine at 0, to be expected with 15 kids I suppose, oh and grilled...

My Pour in place coping was done a few months ago but the control joints go around the curve. I still have "micro cracks" here and there like yours. Like you, I was at work when they did the coping so didn't witness their method.

Wow what a bummer. I personally, after just having gone through the rehab process for the first time would be leery of the first option and whether or not the new bonded plaster finish would last. I would also be concerned with how it would look where it's "feathered" at the tile line, although...

In re-doing my pool recently I had the main drain split into two. My PB did this automatically, and I figured it was mandatory from what i've read. When the inspector came to give us the pre-plaster inspection he said, "oh it's good to split them". I said isn't it the law? His reply was that...
