Where on the return though? Like I said it's an aqualuminator light. Is that easy to remove and plug? Or as you suggesting the plug go on the outside of the pool?

So, I need to replace some of the hard PVC plumbing on my pool (long story don't ask :-) ) From my pool to the pump I have a ball valve so I can turn that off. Then I can put my filter in the closed position. But once I cut the bad piece of PVC out (the run from the heater to the return jet...

I want to help test but the iOS link is not working for me. Says "We're sorry but something went wrong". Any idea what's up?

As of Friday, the pool is in! Everything is going great. The water temp right now is 58 degrees. Electrician and Plumber (for heater setup) will be coming tomorrow to get everything setup then I'll be able to start thinking about starting to get the chemistry correct. Pool is ready! -...

Hey everyone! As of yesterday the build process for the AGP in my signature below has begun. I'll try to keep this updated with pics as we progress. Here's the pics from yesterday. Pool Build - Album on Imgur I look forward to any and all advice. I was notified by my pool builder yesterday...

Pool builder came out yesterday with the beautiful weather we had! He did all of the ground prep. The soil was still a little too wet to do the build however. He'll be back to put up the pool once we have 3-4 days in a row of dry weather. Check it out! Pool Build - Album on Imgur

I have some good news! My pool has arrived and is currently in boxes in my garage!! How exciting. I'm obviously going to start getting anxious and pushing my builder to install ASAP. Does anyone have any recommendations of the best time to install the pool here in New England? At this point...

That makes sense and is in line with what I was thinking. I'll assume he'll make me purchase the PVC, Valves etc... but he'll install them. I've seen all of these videos on youtube about why you don't want street elbows etc... As far as backwashing goes, I have looked into local...

Thanks! Now for my next question, I know the obvious answer is "talk to the installer" but I'm just curious the thoughts here. I am paying the installer to have everything setup and he says he'll show me how to operate the pump etc... So am I to assume that he will be connecting the pump...

The check has been cashed and the pool should be arriving this week or next! After the 18" of snow we got last week I know the install won't be happening any time soon so I'm spending plenty of time on here researching different things and getting excited! When the install happens is there...

Just ordered the following 2 on amazon Hayward H150FDN and Hayward SP15932S

Ok, I have some updates. I signed a contract last night!! I found an installer who was able to get me a great deal on another Wilbar pool branded as an Atlantic Chesapeake. Here's what I went with so far. Atlantic Chesapeake 21' Round Hayward S244T Filter Still deciding on the pump...

I definitely think I want to go for a light in the pool. I haven't even started researching those yet.

The more the merrier! Keep em coming :-) Just had an electrician come to give a quote. AHHHH so excited trying to put together my budget.

Our town says I have to be at least 10' off the property line, and with this plan that would not be an issue at all. Thanks so much for all the help! I'm getting excited.
