thanks!

I've had an SWG with an autocover for ~7 years now, and I did not need to produce a lot of chlorine with it. The cell only runs overnight for ~4 hours with the floor cleaner and I am able to maintain ~3ppm with an hour open weekdays and 3 on the weekends on average. I was never able to fully...

Interesting yours of the same vintage has QC issues, My feb 2021 manufacture date IC60 just died shorted (pops the 12A ET fuse when attached). I actually only have the 60 because of shortages at the time, was hoping to get more than 4 years out of it as I ran it most of the time at 20%...

Either you're going to love it, or hate it. No middle ground :D

I agree, probably don't expect a uniform color with fina. My fina install definitely has some "blotchiness" and streaking-- but I really like it. The dark color I chose (sapphire galaxy) with the bits of sparkle just makes it more like space to me. The feel of it is perfect, extremely smooth.

Pebbletec's smooth is "pebblefina" and it's quite nice. Still happy with mine, my feet don't get torn up like they do in a classic pebbletec pool

Safety regulations led me to the actual lawsuit against aquaslide by the CPSC and they were sued because of the risk of paraplegia from headfirst sliding into the shallow end, and Aquaslide's argument that regs just be changed to mandate deep water install was determined to increase the risk of...

Safety regulations make a lot of sense, I might be reduced to trolling craigslist/FB marketplace for used decks. Thanks for the insight.

I guess in general, why are there no straight slides, there's curves, twists, bends. Weird.

Remember every pool slide from the '70s? Does something even close to that exist in the US market anymore? SR Smith has the rogue, which looks like the evolution of aquaslide but it's only available in a turning version. AstralPool seems to still make one, but they are EU only...

As a youth when the pool hit 68 I was in there. Now I won't get in under 80. Maybe 79 if it's really hot out.

The switch on the valve actuator reverses the on/off positions, so if you're in "pool" mode, and you flip that switch to send water to the spa instead, that's where it will be in pool mode until you manually flip it back. edit: beaten by seconds!
