    Deck addition with fiberglass rebar eliminate bonding concerns?

    I'm looking to add 264 sq ft to my existing concrete/bonded deck, running the length of the pool in the attached pic.

    Quick Connect loose/Polaris 360

    I replaced the wall connector this spring, and I have a new Polaris 360. The quick connect is brand new, with Magic Lube/new O ring. While it goes into the wall connector, it's not 'clicking' in place, still has some movement, resulting in a loose hold, which can come out of the wall connector...
