    Waterfall Question: Landscaping Ideas

    Waterfall Question: Just got a waterfall installed myself and I am browsing everyone's pictures here on the page and I can't seem to find what people do to enclose their waterfalls on the backside. Looking to ideas to retain all the soil / mulch that we put there.

    Pool Equipment Pad Wet

    Hi everyone, We had an inground pool installed back in October 2020. They just came to turn everything on last week and it seems the equipment pad is always wet. I don't see visually anything dripping but it is always wet. I am sure it shouldn't be like this and it could rust things out no...

    Pool Heater Question with VSP

    Thanks - I just made a signature. I was running it at 2400RPM but I wasn't sure if that was the correct amount. Also when I turn it off it seems to want to turn back on and I get an error code.

    Pool Heater Question with VSP

    Hi everyone, I have browsed through the forums and was wondering if there was a calculator for how to run my VSP pump with pool heater. I have a 200K BTU Hayward heater with 12k gallon pool. 2" plumbing. I was wondering how many RPMS I should run my pump while this is on. Thanks!

    Pool Heater Question - Bypass (Voids warranty?)

    Thanks - I just went to the Hayward manual and it shows on page 3 the benefits of having one. Just a crazy claim by the PB plumbing team just to get the job done because they didnt come prepared.

    Pool Heater Question - Bypass (Voids warranty?)

    I couldn't get through to them at first and they just notified me that it would not void the warranty. I was wondering if anyone else went through something like this.

    Slide Question

    Thank you. Yes, I think they just need to dig up some dirt to get the pipe right.

    Slide Question

    Correct. They were just prepping where the concrete will go. Our paver color layout will be very similar. We are doing the Cambridge Onyx Natural with the coal border.

    Slide Question

    Thank you everyone. Yes my paver guy put the slide together to make the template to make the concrete base for slide then put the pavers. Based on this picture I think they can dig it up I guess and pull it back some. I guess this is something they didnt think through at the time because if...

    Slide Question

    Anyone go through the process of building a slide? The pool builder used a flexible pvc pipe but only sticking out of the ground maybe 1.5-2ft. Is there an adapter or connector hose that can attach this to we can bring to to the back of the slide? Attached is a picture. Update: Found this...

    Backfill Question

    Nice! My decision was Unilock vs Cambridge. In the end we went with Cambridge. My wife and I liked the color palate better.

    Yeah that's what my guy preaches. Small concrete collar around the pool for the bullnose coping then ICPI standards from there.

    Backfill Question

    Nice - is your paver guy doing concrete under the entire paver area or just a certain footage around the pool?

    Backfill Question

    Very nice. What did you backfill with around your pool? How long did you let it sit for?

    Backfill Question

    Thank you for the replies. I figured if it doesn't rain I will water it all down every 3-4 days.

    Backfill Question

    Our pavers will be installed most likely in March or April. My question really was should I fill in those areas myself and tuck in under the pool to help it along. Ty

    Backfill Question

    Thanks for your advice. I got a few quotes for the trap rock and they were about 3,500 including the dirt removal which was too much for me to spend. They backfilled with the sand / rock that they excavated. Question for you: see attached pictures. Should I go around the pool and fill in...
