    New SWG needed for semi above ground pool

    Thanks for the response and advice. I currently have a plug in unit, but I can hardwire if need be. Are there any plug in units that are any good or should I just hard wire and get something with a good track record like the Hayward?

    New SWG needed for semi above ground pool

    We've had a Jandy Aquapure EI for 3 years and the control unit died in year 2 (fixed under warranty) and again in year 3. Entering year 4 it's time to cut my losses and replace it with something reliable. I have an above ground pool installed partially below ground. I'm a little confused as...

    I replied to the above poster via PM but I wanted to post here in case anyone else had questions. 1. We purchased from patiostore.com.

    Thanks for all the positive comments everyone. The 33' Radiant Metric is $7100 at the two authorized online retailers. We did some preliminary investigation of pools last year and one of the first ones we saw in a showroom was the Radiant Metric. The pool itself was a few thousand more in...

    Thank you. It turned out exactly as we wanted it. Lots of help from family and several weekends from a carpenter friend.

    Pretty much finished Radiant Metric install in MN

    Thanks. We had my sons 7th birthday party on Saturday and we had more than enough room for 20+ people. We also have a huge sandbox and big play set but not a single person ventured further into the yard than the pool- ha ha. We will see how well those trees serve us in the future, but so far...
