Hey everyone!
I am a homeowner with a pool system that appears to be coming up on the end of life. I have owned the home for 7 years and already had two pumps replaced and feel like everything is continuing to break. Now, I have the heater out and the filter pump is not working. My pool service company quoted me $5k to get it “working” again with a new VSD pump - and to get everything upgraded was like $14k. It just seems like a money pit and am thinking about just getting a new system - but dont agree with the pricing references from my pool service.
The pool is about 30,000 gallons in size. My wife wants to get a salt system (previous one never worked) and I just want something low maintenance.
I have attached a picture of my current setup and would appreciate some guidance on how you experts would replace all this gear. Ideally I would like to keep the spend around 6-8k including: new filter pump (waterfall pump is ok), new filter, new salt system, new heater (gas), and I guess some new pipes and other misc.
Appreciate guidance / suggestions on system upgrade.
Thanks
Dagan
