    Winter closing in Seattle?

    I live in Edmonds and haven’t done a full close. I do have a winter safety mesh cover and run at lower speed when it gets below freezing. I have a variable speed pump so it helps. Last year I decided to get a cover for my pump and heater as well for the few weeks it actually snowed. I believe it...

    It probably is the same from San Juan Pools! Ok so far we replaced the old piping and now in the process of redoing the deck.

    Opinions requested concerning old piping replacement

Note we purchased the home about a year and a half ago so we...

    Even more interesting is there’s a house near me with an identical pool! San Juan was very popular in my area 50 years ago apparently!

    It’s Fiberglass and I found the permit online dating from 50 years ago. San Juan Pool company when they started in the Pacific Northwest. It looks like it’s been refinished at least once.
