Thanks @ajw22 for flagging this for me. @jimmythegreek I am not sure how common it is or not to build from cinderblock. I think many do use the pre-made panels and I would guess that the vinyl liner builders are a 50/50 mix of prebuilt panels vs. other version of the wall. The pool builder...

Hi Everyone, We are in the process of finishing an inground vinyl liner pool. We are handling many of the projects ourselves like the landscaping, the patio, equipment shed, and pergola. Our PB is behind schedule by a few months and while they have finished the excavation, the installation...

Thanks for that suggestion. I will check those out. I do plan on just running one 2" line to the main drains to ensure compliance with the anti-entrapment regulations. That is a great suggestion. I want to keep the water moving and ensuring it is efficient as possible. I do plan to put two...

Hello Everyone, I am a new TFP member who is just getting ready to hit the order button after several months of research on DIY kits. We will do some of the work ourselves and contract some out. I have a large suburban backyard and our house ends up being the hangout spot for our kids friends...
