Thanks for the advice! On the side of the house I have an area about 5' wide before I hit a bump out for a fireplace and the landscaping is 4' deep off the house. So I can do 5' wide and as deep as needed, though I'd rather it not stick out into the yard crazy far or anything. So I was hoping...

Thanks BMore! Just waiting on my pool kit... Estimated to arrive around July 10th-16th. Sooner the better! I'm a bit nervous as to timing to get this thing in the ground this year! PA isn't exactly nice weather real late in the year.. I'm having some second thoughts on heater size.. Was...

Can someone please help me understand a little better? If I get SDR35 or black flexi perf pipe and get it around the entire overdig 365 degrees on top of the concrete collar (approx down 3' deep or whatever) and then run it to a pipe that will flow the water away with gravity... is that enough...

Am I understanding this correctly? Do most people have enough fall in their property that they could pipe water away from a sump 8' deep from the bottom of the hopper? A french drain sitting on the concrete collar would be super easy to drain, but I don't see how to get nearly enough to drain...

Hey guys! I finalized all of the pool options and I'm just waiting for it to ship! I went with the C5030 cartridge filter, a 1.5" Hayward networked ColorLogic light for my step/ledge area, removed the un-needed vac suction line, and added back in main drains. Still on the fence about the...

Thanks for the pic! Looks like a nice setup, I just really need to research this more to see what will work best. I guess I'll install the suction line as well just in case. Still 50/50 on filter choice haha, will decide soon. For the $200 difference, "bigger is better" I suppose. Yes, we're...

Nice looking L pool! Thanks for the advice. I decided to do a 2nd light, figured you can't really add it later so better splurge on it now! Glad to hear you did PWarehouse and had a positive experience. So far, so good, I just hope the kit is quality as it seems and everything goes without a...

Thanks for the further advice! I think I have decided to upgrade filters after some more research. The cartridge seems easier to use, clean and plumb. So long as the cartridges last a couple seasons or so. I understand the difference in filter area in the 5030 and 7030 filters. It's a $200...

Hello and thanks for checking out my project! I appreciate your input! The Pool Warehouse place seems to be a big Hayward dealer. The pool is Hydra Pools brand. Hayward is running a $500 mail in rebate and extra 5 year warranty deal now, so if the stuff is decent I'll likely keep it. Please let...

Hello! Just wanted to introduce myself and my new pool project. My name is Cory and I'm near Pittsburgh, PA. I am new to pools, but I've decided to take the leap to learn all I can and put in the sweat equity when possible and sub out the construction of my new pool. I have several business...
