    Ground mount solar rack?

    Thanks for the feedback! I didn't consider the loss of heat due to wind. Storing them indoors is also a great idea. - - - Updated - - - It probably would help a little. I doubt it would be noticeable tho.

    Ground mount solar rack?

    I plan to build a ground mount rack for my solar panels. I've seen a few different ways of building the rack and I'm not sure which would be best. There is the fully covered rack that the panels sit on top of and then there is an open slat type rack that the panels sit on top of. The slat type...

    LED Pool Light Roundup!

    Easytouch kit selection?

    Thanks! My pool will be around 37000 gal. Everything I've read says to get one size larger than you need. I'm at the limit of the IC40. I'll try find some local pricing.

    Easytouch kit selection?

    Thanks for the replies! This is a new build so the load center would be nice. There is a kit that includes the IC60 but it's the 8 relay version and includes 2 actuators that I don't need. The descriptions of the kits makes it hard to determine if load center and SWG transformer are included.

    New build in Raleigh NC

    Thanks for the reply! Glad to hear that you are happy with the pool. We were originally planning a L shaped pool but when we saw this Lagoon we changed our mind. It's basically an L with curves. I'll be updating my build thread when we get started in about 2 weeks.

We ordered the pool kit with 48" walls. I hope you don't mind if I pick your brain a little about your...
