    New build - St George UT

    Your pool is almost the exact same size as our sports pool and you're doing similar depths. I've been shocked at how warm the water has stayed all year long (88-94), so with you in St George it would be even warmer. I've only used my heater once so far and that was just to play around with it...

    Bubblers and loungers

    Same as what others have said. We use our sheer decent waterfall and bubblers 90% of the time we are in the pool but only turn in the deck jets 10-15% of the time. The deck jets are a lot louder than then the other two.

    UT New Build - Update (start up 5/21)

    That is crazy. It must be the cover. Yours is a little deeper than ours but it is also a lot warmer there. It's been 100+ here the last couple of days, the pool is at 91 right now. I like it around 88 so I'm glad it seems to drop down at night. Does your pool get any shade? Ours is shaded...

    UT New Build - Update (start up 5/21)

    It's been a while, so I figured I'd give an update. Our punch list still has plenty of things on it but the pool is functional, 95% of the dirt is gone, and we have sprinkler/grass so I'm being patient. We are loving the pool and used it every day. I'm learning the ropes on the upkeep and...

    UT New Build - Update (start up 5/21)

    PB said to add 1 gallon of liquid chlorine and 1 gallon of 31.45% Muriatic Acid, wait 20 minutes and retest. They said not to add any CYA yet. I just put those in.

    UT New Build - Update (start up 5/21)

    @mknauss I did my first test today. PB startup guy was here yesterday morning. He added about a gallon of liquid chlorine and a quarter gallon of muriatic acid. Granted, this is my first time using the test kit so maybe I did something wrong but this is what I got. PH 8.2 FC 0 (solution...

    See I would have never thought of that. Thanks, @BigPapaSmurf. Hopefully, the PB crew comes today to get the equipment rolling, and then we can just close the automatic cover. Otherwise, I'll be investing in an inflatable alligator :)

    UT New Build - Update (start up 5/21)

    Thanks, @kimkats! Pool is finally full, wow that took longer than I thought. I clocked 17,050 gallons on the water meter. They are supposed to come get the pool equipment fired up today. We have new ducks visitors that want to make the pool their new home, lol. We had to chase them off a...

    UT New Build - Update (start up 5/21)

    @kimkats or anyone that might know. We are 27 hours in of filling our pool. I've been keeping an eye on it the whole time. I had a meeting, and I guess there was a big wind storm that blew a bunch of debris and pollen into the pool pretty close to the time it was just coming over the edge...

    My TF-100 kit just showed up in the mail also. Been a productive pool day after a long drought. Now I just have to figure out how to do all the tests lol.

    All done. Waiting to start the water and going to grab a picture of the meter. They said wait 30mins to an hour. I’ve read a couple of hours. It’s been 3 1/2 hours since they first started spraying the plaster. I figured would wait at least another hour.
