We have new salt water pool and spa with Jandy JXI400NK Pool and Spa heater and Jandy Proseries VSPLUSHP Variable Speed Pump Model # VSPHP270AUT. What speed should I run for Pool and for Spa? Please see attachment. And how long should I run it daily? Continously? How expensive is to heat the...

Thanks for the replies. 6 drains around the pool. I was wondering if it will look nice or not?

I need help. Please the photo of the pool in courtyard next to patio. Patio is raised. Pool is raised too. The height of pool is same as height of patio. Is that how it should have been or pool should have been flushed to the ground so its' a step down from patio. The pool builder never asked us...

Thanks

How should pay off schedule be? I am sure PB worry would be what if client does not pay once pool is done.

I have decided on Salt Water Pool. I am getting the contract ready. I saw PB has added the Clear Blue Ionizer at no extra cost but I did not see Salt System in the contract. So I asked him have you included the salt system (Fluidra Astral E35 Salt System) in it? He replied, "No the clear blue...

Since quartscape midnight will cost me same as other two, now I have decide between Pebble Sheen v/s Wet Edge. For me, Pebble Sheen (standard colors) is $1000-1500 less than Wet Edge Signature Matrix level 1 color Pebble Finish.I have desired color in both of them. I am ok spending $1000 more...

Will appreciate input. Thanks.

Pool will be ~ 10,000 gallons. So this salt water at 35,000 gallons should be sufficient. If not Jandy then which other brand/model number for various equipments do you recommend?

I emailed the PB and got reply back - "Fluidra owns Jandy now Fluidra perfected generators long before other companies. Their salt systems are solid. This one is rated for up to 35,000 gallons so it can run at low production rate and last even longer than one rated for 25,000 gallons"

Thanks for the reply but I didn't understand when you say, "The ionizer thing is magic." Does it mean say NO to Clear Blue Ionizer System and instead get salt water system. What does it mean by Automation? PB# has • Jandy iAqualink wireless pool computer(pc,tablet, or smartphone controlled) in...

Thanks for the reply. PB# gives option of Clear Blue Ionizer System: $795 v/s Fluidra Astral E35 Salt System: $ 949 in upgrades. Here is a link to ionizer : Pool ionizer system reduces maintenance and chemicals - ClearBlue Ionizer Inc. He said he will do in line chlorinator irrespective of...

PB # 3 sent me email saying he made calculation mistake and PROJECT TOTAL __________________$ 67,378.67 has decreased to __________________$ 61,846.67 I think I will choose PB # 3 but didn't understand if this pool is salt water pool or not and what upgrades if any should I choose? Will...

I spoke with PB # 3. He has sent a revised quote. We increased the depth of pool and size a little bit. PB # 2 pool is way bigger but we won't go for that size pool. Please take a look at revised quote. Should I choose any upgrades from the bottom of the quote? He told me even salt water pool...

I sent email to PB # 2, why did he put Pier Beams as optional? I will let you know the answer. Also PB # 2 said, he charges same price for upto 450 sq ft even if I want a smaller pool. There is no way I will have such long pool (13' x 48') as I don't have too much space in back. My pool will be...

PB # 2 and PB # 3 are recommend by my Home builder and he has worked with them before. I have sent long email to PB # 2 as there were lot of comments by forum members and needed lot of changes as below: - I like IntelliFlo pumps except the one that has the SVRS option as included in this...

Why is PB# 3 pool only 8000 gallons as it is round about same size as other pools and they are 12,000 gallons? What am i not understanding?

I am asking PB about pre-fab spa but won't have enough space in back yard to keep spa away from pool. @Dirk, I am confused with your posts and the above post. Have drains or do not have them? As in your other post regarding laying pipes, wires etc I will ask PB to think about those that I...

I haven't asked the pool builder but as per home builder, no pier beam needed for pool. He reviewed soil report with me.

You mention oversized filter? Can you tell me more about it. What size? Regarding deck space - total space in courtyard is 23 feet. Pool will be 13' wide and will leave 5' on either side. How big of a deck space should I have?

Do you recommend to get pebble finish?

Thanks for the reply. I will not take into account cost of synthetic grass or piers to compare the bids to make them more even. In the mean time, I will ask them to give me quote on piers (if needed) and synthetic grass. Who can tell me if I need piers? PB or home builder/contractor doing...

Jim thanks for your reply. For things that you say No, what should I replace it with so I can go back to PB and ask for specific changes. Can you tell me ideally what would you choose among various equipment options and I can ask PB to come up with quote with those equipment options.
