New Pool-old thread

Hi All -
I had originally started this thread, back in 2019: Pool Build - Arlington, TX

Unfortunately, that project fell through, and thanks to COVID, parental health issues, we got delayed.

We're about to start the process over, and we're looking at getting a 16x37 fiberglass pool installed, and I'm wanting to get input into current trends in pumps, filters, lighting.


I'm debating again between DE filter or sand. My desire is to have low maintenance.

I'm also looking for automated vacuums/scrubbers.

We're having an initial meeting with the builder tomorrow to identify placement.
 
Just my opinion, I would give the larger 4-cart filters a look. No DE to mess with, no waste of water, and with a large filter you may have to clean it once or twice per years is all.

Pool cleaners ...... good luck. There are so many now it's tough to keep track. Checkout our Pool Cleaners forum though. Lots of threads there.
