Hi everyone! Wanted to introduce myself to this great forum. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge.

Landscapers come this Monday to level and compact 20x40’ of hard clay for build. 1” Owens corning 150 foam board with 2- 8x16x4 concrete pavers at each of the 24 legs level with top of foam board. Is all this planning supposed to make my head hurt so much?

How are you set for testing your pool water?
TF-100 is an ideal kit, and the fancier TF-100 Pro Salt is what I use. www.tftestkits.net
or...
order up a Taylor 2006C kit from someone on the webs. Just make sure its the "C" version for comparison to the TF-100.

Landscaping done left with some small rocks and dirt chunks I have to clean up. Next step pavers.

Have installed the pavers and wondering how much the legs will move as water fills the pool. I am a little concerned on one of the 16' ends the leg with 6 inches of water is only on the paver 2" will the legs on the short end move out also?
 
It’s been a long road but finally seeing results. Plumbed con the heater Monday and last night was first night swimming in a heated pool.
