    Jandy Pro Series VS FloPro 2HP Variable-Speed Pool Pump?

    I am thinking of getting this pump instead of the Jandy Flo Pro 1.0hp 2 speed with timer....the cost difference is only $200 since the controller that comes with the VS FloPro 2HP Variable-Speed Pool Pump will replace the need for the digital intermatic timer.....or am I missing something?

    Need advice about equipment in pool quote

    Thanks for the help. Which of the following Jandy filters would you recommend: CV340, CV 460 or the CV 580? I will buy the CV580 since it's the largest unless y'all tell me differently. Thanks again for all the help, Bill

    The main drain and skimmer runs are separate and 2". I will see how much extra the individual return runs are (if he will let me, I can do those). What diameter PVC should be used for 3 individual runs? Thanks for all of your and Dave's help!! Bill

    New fiberglass pool is full of cracks... HELP!

    Michael, I actually think this is a great development in that it is a outside entity illustrating the cavalier attitude of the builder and the lack of attention to detail that has been the hallmark of your project. I don't see how it can do anything but strengthen your arguments. On the other...

    Size of plumbing and # of skimmers for new pool?

    My wife and I are meeting with a PB tomorrow. We are getting a 37'9"L X 14'1"W, depth 3'10"-6"6 rectangular fiberglass pool and I wonder if we should get 2 skimmers and if so, should they be looped or on separate lines and 2" or 2.5" lines? How many returns? 1.5" or 2" pipe for the returns...

    New fiberglass pool is full of cracks... HELP!

    Michael, I am sorry but I think you missed the point I was trying to make in my last post....it was not about me or really even the truck...it was about my daughter learning something very valuable from me when I had no idea I was actually teaching her by example. Best regards, Bill

    New fiberglass pool is full of cracks... HELP!

    New fiberglass pool is full of cracks... HELP!

    Michael, I am truly sorry that this has happened to you and even sorrier that an attorney has to be involved. Remember, none of this is your fault and that you are entitled to what you paid for- a new pool-without cracks-properly installed with the full manufacturer's warranty. Hopefully...

    New fiberglass pool is full of cracks... HELP!

    Michael, You will note that this is my first post, but I have experience with this type of issue and no, I am not an attorney-nor do I play one on TV-heck I didn't even stay a Holiday Inn Express! You need an attorney who specializes in construction litigation. You need one because you are in...
