If you don't mind can you tell me how much this deck cost? I love it and would like to have my husband built to but he of course wants to here numbers up front before her looks at the design

All testing results are where they need to be I checked it earlier. The pollen pods are dropping like rain the last few days and we have a record high on pollen this year. I can't run the pump unless I am home to which I have been doing and I am only gone a few hours in the am and a few in the...

My beautiful clear pool is now green in a matter of 48 hrs from a massive drop in pollen pods the last two days. I am freaked out. What should I do???

If you don't mind me asking do you have a complete parts and design list with cost? I would love to copy your design with a tweak here and there.

We had our 1yr old pool taken down and moved to our new house yesterday and today. On my last pool build a year ago we had rolled shingles put down with sand ontop of that. This time we used our old liner in the bottom a layer of sand and then armorshield with cove. Last year the weather was...

We had our pool installed Sept.2010 and now we are buying a new house so the pool will be moved. I have a few questions about doing this. 1. Should we pay a company to move the pool and reinstall the pool for us? or should we take the pool down ourselves and pay them to install for us? 2. Do...

he bottom pretty flat BUT I do have a few areas that at like the moon if you know what I mean. I have no deep end just a set of stairs on one side.

I have the wahoo baracoda pool cleaner but need something else. We get lots of leave, pine needles and sand so what do you think I should get???

I never really shut mine down. Anytime my generator read anything other then " COLD " then I turned the pump on for alittle while. For the past few weeks I have had it running at 40% for 6hrs a day and the kids went in for the 1st time yesterday. My husband thinks I love the pool more then him...

I will take apic of it later today- It not that our ladder isn't heavy because dang it is. It takes two people with some arm power to get it in and out without killing yourself. The issue is I can't get it to set right on the bottom and the fin on the back wants to touch the wall of the pool...

My husband and I have tried several times to install our A Frame ladder and can't seem to get it right. It a monster to get into the pool and just seems to wobblie. The fin thats on the back of the ladder keeps touching the wall of the pool and those stupid metal poles are a joke. I read the...

THANK YOU so much for the info and help. I got some a good idea of a starting point.

I will be buying my own test kit this week however in the mean time I was doing what I was told by the pool installer/dealer. I understand your trying to be helpful by telling me to read " Pool School " BUT I have and I am new to this so it also means that I need help besides what pool school is...

Ok so my pool went in on Thursday. I took my water sample to the pool store and added the amount of Salt, ALK, and Stabilizier and then turn the pump on for 24hrs. Yesterday at 11am I turned the Aquatrol in to super chlorinate for 24hrs to shock the pool and bring the chlorine up. Today at 11am...
