I was told this is to prevent too much water flow going through the heater. It’s a 5psi check valve. I still don’t quite understand how it accomplishes this.

Not yet, it looks like they'll be here end of this week. They came out and looked at the crack and assured me its just a surface crack. I sent them photos of it in an e-mail in case it pops up again down the road. You must be finished by now, no?

I think they’re going to be plastering this week. That’s the only step that’s left. I sent pictures to the builder. Waiting to see what they say. Should I have them delay plastering to wait and see what happens with this crack?

I noticed today a crack has appeared in the gunite that definitely hasn't been there in the past. I haven't looked too closely the last week or so, but I was watering every for the first 10-14 days, and it wasn't there during that time. (shell was shot back around May 5th or so) It runs pretty...

the safety alarms were my responsibility in the contract. I've asked the PB also, he says I should be fine with what I have and if the inspector has an issue with how we have it we'll just do whatever he suggests. We have a couch right in front of this window, so the 54" is not out of reach of...

I sent you a PM

I’ve got a code question. I put techko S187d alarms in my windows and doors leading to the pool, but I’ve got one window that is very low, there’s no way I can get the bypass button up above 48” (I think it needs to be 54”) because of how low the window is. Does anyone know if I use one of those...

Not sure this is the correct forum for this, but I’ve got new stucco going in some walls and columns. They should finish with the stucco Friday, then on Monday the screen guy will be here to build the screen enclosure. It will attach to the new areas that are being stuccoed Friday. The plan is...

I added a second pump for water features, added a second skimmer, Intellicenter for automation, a Quad DE100 filter, larger salt cell, larger propane heater, we also had a large screen enclosure, large sun shelf and ended up with 3.5'-6' depth. The screen and the travertine were by far the...

I used the company you're talking about for my pool build. That number is the starting point. My project turned the platinum package into 100k (I have a lot of upgrades, much larger pool / spa & nearly 3000sqft of travertine). I got bids from multiple companies, all were within about 10% of...

Thanks so much!

Maybe I'm off in the weeds, but when in spa mode, will the SWG be running? An IC60 running the spa for a few hours would over chlorinate the spa, wouldn't it? This was my main reason for wanting to control the IC60 separately.

Wow, this is great. You have no idea how much time you've saved me. There's not a lot of information out there on the intellicenter (at least that I've been able to find). This thread has been an amazing resource. Thank you so much for the information. I was coming up short for my SPD, but if...

I'm almost complete on a new pool build with an Intellicenter 521906 controlling everything (1 intelliflo pump, IC60, 2 Intellivalves, MasterTemp 400, water feature pump, lights...etc) Question about jumping relays to be able to control the IC60 independently...In your above example, you have 1...

Definitely a check valve...just not sure what purpose it would have. Waiting to hear back from the builder.

But the outlet from the heater is between the check valve and the SWG. There's a Jandy Check valve on the outlet from the heater. Should there be two?

I’ll have to get a better picture tomorrow. It’s actually clear, and it appears like there’s a spring in there.

Does anyone know what this is and what its purpose is?

It looks like there isn't a specific code (at least one I could find) regarding pool plumbing depth. Should I be demanding that it's lower anyway or is this a normal depth for Florida?

Hello! We're in Lutz also! Just building our pool now and also decided to leave the markers out. We found out they're only required by code for commercial pools for our area. Welcome!

Does anyone know if there's a code that specifies how deep the pipes should be? I can't find anything specific as it relates to pool plumbing.

The equipment and pvc plumbing has arrived and the plumber started putting everything together. They originally delivered the wrong filter. It was the pentair FNS 60, and we'd specified the Quad DE 80. They couldn't get a Quad DE 80 in time so they swapped it with a Quad DE 100. :) Looking at...
