Thanks! No those are not speakers... they are the intakes for all the water features. The builder put drain covers over them to keep people from sucking up againsts them..lol... Also yes I have two 500w lights in the pool and a 300w in the spa. I have them set where they are facing away from...

Hi Everyone! We are for all intensive purposes done! Since my last post the Aqua Blue Pebblesheen was added last Friday. Truly a fascinating process to watch. These guys are true craftsman as they come in and smooth the pool to a beautiful finish. I found the slurry really interesting, except...

Well we debated on the SWG but our pool builder didnt really want to do it because of all the rock. I know there is some debate on how corrosive it is. Im probably going to regret not doing it, but I figure I can always come back and add it. So right now we are going clorine sticks. We did that...

Hi TFPJules111, I noticed that you are from Denton. I am in Corinth, I have had a pool for the last 10 years( currently building a new one) in this area and I can tell you that I never closed our pool. I always just let it run and let it kick on when the temps dropped close to freezing. The...
