Here's ours.

Beautiful!

We did the same thing. Took 5 bids and visited with customers from 3 of the PB's. We also got input from all of the fencing contractors that we were talking to. They were quite helpful as well.

No worries. We turned the spillover off and hot water started coming out of the pool returns.

I walked into a pool store yesterday looking for a fitting and saw a woman walking out with a box filled with chemicals and 2 boys with her who's hands were also full. I was soooo tempted to preach the gospel to her but held my tongue. I need someone to keep the pool store open for my occasional...

Thanks to both. I'll start experimenting tonight.

I would like to take advantage of my variable speed pump and the built in timer. As I have mentioned in earlier posts my PB has pretty much abandoned us with our project so I need a little help. I downloaded the manual for the pump and now reach out to the experts as to the settings. It is a 4...

We have a new install (started in November, still not quite done). The pool is up and running although the SWG still does not work. We have a Sta Rite heater that has a button to heat pool only or spa only. We have figured out that if we put it in spa only mode and turn on the waterfall feature...

Update.. Contacted a local pool place that does warranty work. Scheduled a warranty call for 6/16. They charge $120.00 to come out but SWG will be fixed or replaced under the warranty. Texted PB and told him what I was doing. He said he would Google repair centers to see if he could find one...

I'm sure I could get the pool finished for less than what I owe him. Just wondering if anyone else has been through similar circumstances. Not looking to get TFP in any unsalted hot water.

We contracted on a build last fall and the PB started building in November. By mid December we had a shell, patio and pipes run to corner of house. We purposely left the job unfinished until spring. Fast forward to April. PB comes out with crew, installs all the equipment, has finish applied to...

Follow the light...Stay away from the dark side. TFP is always the way.....

That's what I told them:goodjob:. Pressure sits between 12-18.

I am at work busy as heck and my wife calls ands says she can't feel any water coming out of the returns. Pump is running and pressure is around 18. Skimmers are clear. What do I tell her. Turn off pump? This is our 3rd day enjoying our new pool.

I have been maintaining the pool for a month now, no thanks to him. I asked him about the white ring on my dark finish (halfway down in the deep end) and he said its because my PH is above 7.2 and I should wait until fall and drop the PH way down to eliminate some of it. Why didn't he mention...

So.........Finally yesterday after not seeing or barely hearing from our PB since the finish was applied and the water added in mid April we had an appt to fire up the SWG and show me how the pool equipment works. I had the kids add 480 lbs of salt in the morning and stir it around to help it...

Thanks for the link. Amazing that you don't get a better owners manual.

Tried that. Waited a day and still had the same problem. Just called Epic and they are sending me a new power supply, no questions asked. Didn't want the old one back. Great Customer Service.

Power is fine. I did get it to work. I just cant get the on off switch to work like it should.

Took delivery of a new Z5 last week from Epic Pools. Big shout out to everyone here for that connection. Saved money for sure. My problem is that it comes with essentially no owners manual and the third night I went to turn it on the button did not work. I plugged and unplugged and then pushed a...

CYA is done, thanks. My next purchase is the bulk salt that I will need. I did see that at Lowes as well. The question is, how much do I need to start up a new 24K pool?

Thanks, Ill head to the store.

WHere do I buy granular stabilizer?

PH is 7.5. SO I should add more sticks for now? How do I increase CYA? Water looks great.

Just took numbers for second time and want to throw them out there to get some opinions. FC=1 CC=.5 TC=1.5 CH=200 TA=120 CYA=22 Keep in mind I am only using Chlorine sticks in the baskets at this time. Started with 3 of them last week, added 2 to other skimmer 3 days later and then added 2 more...

What a great idea but I don't have a vacuum system to hook this up to.

I have only put a couple of chlorine sticks in the baskets at this point. We will be adding salt in another week or 2 and turning on the SWG at that time. The water looks great. No algae anywhere just some worms and such on the bottom. Not allowed to run a vacuum yet per builder. Seems like I...

The kit arrived today so here are the first numbers. pH 7.5 CL 3 Fc 4.5 Cc 0 Ch 200 TA 130 CYA 28 I will plug them into calculator next. How do they look?

So.... Bioguard test kit has not been very helpful as the PH shows below 6 and the Alkalinity still wasn't reading so I took a sample to the Pool place today. FC is 2 PH is 7.8 Total Alkalinity is 75 Adjusted Total Alkalinity is 64 CYA is 35 TDS (?) 500
