    Small space shell virginia

    I am in the middle of a pool install and the installer cracked the patio under my hot tub so time to go inground with that too. My pool equipment can support a spa so just need the shell and I will plumb it from the pool heater.

    Marina those are wrinkles. The PB is having a hard time due to the cold so his plan is to dive the pool to get the wrinkles out once we fill and heat it to 80. He said he has built over 1000 pools and he has done it before. I trust he knows what he is doing but I am worried but if he has to...

    Inground Quote in Norfolk VA,

    Dan she said that she does plumb the floor separate from the skimmers and I believe she is plumbing the skimmers separate from each other as well. According to the documentation the T-9 works up to 25K Gallons. Is the Sense and Dispense worth it?

    24' X 12' X 52" Ultra Frame Intex salt pump question

    Heck No. I think the outlet they are plugged into is only a 15 amp and they are both running on a 25 ft extension cord to one of those Christmas light power strips. I have been doing that for years.
