    Electrician came today and is wiring it all up and putting chlorine in. Monday pool builder is coming and will clean the driveway, clean the pool, and put salt in. Luckily I hadn't picked up my order of salt from Lowe's yet. I am going to just get 5 bags to keep on hand and switch the hot tub over.

    I have a submersible pump, what about putting it in a bucket, and pumping from 1 end of the pool the other?

    So they are giving me some supplies next week and are going to clean the pool. The electrician hasn't shown up yet, so should I dump in some bleach? Already have tons of mosquitoes flying around. The retaining wall is about 90' long, had another company come up and is going to give a quote...

    I know some builders give them out around here with the package, I don't remember if one was included with what I chose or not, but will check when they come over to get the check.

    Intellicenter came in. Also they redid some of the plumbing so I could hook up the solar heaters my dad gave me. I kinda of which the valves were orientated in a way to quickly see the flow direction.

    Anyone have recommendations for a 3D landscape design company? I underestimated how much there would be to do afterwards. This wall for one is going to be a lot longer and higher than we thought...

    @YippeeSkippy thanks a ton, I didn't realize they were that cheap a SWG for the hot tub. Either way, I will probably switch to that.

    @YippeeSkippy I thought about it and probably should have researched more if I could have got a different Intellicenter that would do my type of hot tub also. If I went the route of liquid chlorine, wouldn't I have to add that every day? I am still fighting on not moving the hot tub near the...

    I need a new broom, should I get a push broom or upright broom? Waiting on the different contractors to come give some options on the retaining walls and then I will order the robot... If retaining walls are within budget M600, else S200 variant.

    Looking at a used IntelliChem Model 521357 P/N 522622 for $495, it just needs 1 ORP sensor($115) and 1 pH sensor($95), the cables are included with the unit. Thought is to use it for just monitoring, the daily and weekly tests with the TF-100 will still be done. Maybe not the weeklies when I...

    @kimkats the liner was 100% the wife, I didn't want involved in picking it at all. I am more about functionality than looks. Equipment is not running yet, still waiting on the Intellicenter to arrive, but the pump, filter and SWG are in. Instead of just upgrading my K-2106 test kit that I...

    Electrician stopped by, he is going to install a 100 amp sub panel next to my meter then feed the intellicenter from that so that I can hook up the hot tub and run a panel down to the shed. The intellicenter still hasn't arrived yet though :( Tomorrow is backfill and grading day, so hopefully I...
