thanks! finally drilled the PVC for the sprinkler. ball valve makes it adjustable. can shoot it over the pool if needed! lol

pvc to hang the solar cover while in use and pool toys when cover is on.

did you check the strainer where the skimmer hose connects? could be plugged....

going on vacation for a week. best way to maintain chlorine? use a tablet for a week and hope for the best? some more pictures. more gravel and hay down... just about finished for awhile.

did mine with a smaller bowl and to put new intake in... i put the hose adapter that came with intex skimmer on the fitting and then a plug that came with the pool. once hole was cut did a quick swap woth minimal water loss and plenty of time to screw on the valve.

electric is done. 2 afci/gfci 20 amp circuits and an led light. pool looks cool! just need solar sensors wired and the aquasolar attached to a board! ha! the rest of the water arrived as well! tanker pic from yesterday

thank you! wife made a coil to try out for solar woven with aluminum wire. easy to move around this way. should i be checking any other levels atm other than FC after water arrives shortly?

so i took a break from trench digging and added 2 random lengths of vinyl.... about 12 loops worth each... with t-s, manifold style, which was my plan.... output jumped to about 5-6 gallon per minute out of the eyeball. water temp is about 5 degrees higher at eyeball than surface

1/2 in... for now. gonna buy some 3/4 or 1 in when I get a chance

now after some sleep its time to work again! but first...some numbers. FC7.0 , pH 7.5, TA 100 i added 40oz powdered CYA yesterday and its currently about 1/2 dissolved and 1/2 still in the sock i added bleach, dont remember the amount from pool math, but it was correct. the FC is high due to...

kids are happy so far!

cya added. bleach added. per pool calc. haven't tested yet... will do in the morning. so far all appears ok structure wise. added intex large strainers. one goes to solar pump, one to sand filter pump. the plumbing i had in my head has been put to real world use. pumps join at a t then onto...

absolutely! was a good work day. water delivery in the morning!
