    Plaster stains (noticed before the fill)

    yes it was under pressure, I didn't know why until now, thank you! Can I assume they need to drain the pool to do an acid wash?

    Plaster stains (noticed before the fill)

    Only the last stain was bark, that one came after the pool was filled. The others I could see before the water covered it.

    Plaster stains (noticed before the fill)

    I noticed some staining in the plaster as the pool was filling, after 5 days the stains have not gotten better, worse I believe. The images below are admittedly bad, I need to take it during the day but I'm rarely at home in time to catch it. That said, I'm sure you can see what I am talking...

    Before you look...The overflow tile is not what I selected and the pool builder has ordered the correct tile. I did notice some stains I'll be starting another thread to discuss. Thanks

    Landscaping - What type of palm is this?

    Thank you for trying so hard to figure it out... The plant is not in my yard, I think I would like it to be but I need to first figure what it is. I thought it might be reclinata but they don't normally do well in North East Florida and this year has been the harshest I have seen. I'm...

    Pool upgrades are they worth it

    I don't see how you get an ROI on an 8K pump, just don't see it.... Updates, not much done this week pool was acid washed, salt installed, cap tile installed..... Thinking about Adding solar, at our home and patio show they had some specials that seem tempting.....

    Pool upgrades are they worth it

    Actually I have FPL for electric and JEA for Water, I'm sure our costs are close. It's a shame we can't get the solar to power the pumps as well. :?: Thank you for the responses. I'm hoping for water by next week! :cheers:

    It is my only pump, maybe because of the cleaning heads? Should I consider adding another pump as well?

    Pool upgrades are they worth it

    My pool guy doesn't do that brand it's Aqua Pearl or KrstalKrette.... Anyway I made an offer on the upgrade, I'll see if he bites, otherwise I'm going with KrstalKrette. I did get rid of the N2 and the Ozone and switched to salt and the EZ8 + Remote.

    Brent, what you can't see is that behind that wall is yet another wall, 30 inches or so between the two retaining walls. I will be planting Bamboo in between the walls. My HOA had your same concerns, fortunately it all worked out. As you can see I had a bout 10 foot decline off the back of...
