Wow! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for all of these great tips! I have so much to research and learn still! If it weren't for you being so kind on going out of your way to offer me this advice, I surely would have missed out big time! Will definitely bring all this up to our pool builder tomorrow! THANKS...

BRILLIANT idea! We do have a water softener system installed in the house, but... how would that work to use it to fill a pool? I thought it wasn't even an option, but was happy to have come by a company that comes and performs reverse osmosis on your pool water! 👍😁

That's so awesome to hear! Thanks for sharing! We're in North Las Vegas and were told we have the worst dirt in all of Vegas. The highest expense for our permit(s) too. One contractor told us he submitted the exact same plans for the same pool (different locations, I think the other was in...

Hi MAPR-Austin! I really wanted a fiberglass pool originally (mainly for the reason they require less chemicals but also because they offer an easier maintenance/cleaning option) unfortunately, the few installers in my area all advise against going with a fiberglass pool because here in Vegas...

Thank you kindly, ajw22! Thank goodness I do have a good installer available. Well, I hope! These days, it's so easy to be deceived.

Will do! Thanks so much for the tip! 👌😊

Hi, friends! We're having a shotcrete pool built soon and are wondering if any of you can advise on whether we'd be better off having it finished in glasscoat or aquaBright. Please and many thanks! :giggle:

We're at the beginning stages for a new-build pool! Let the fun begin! (y):D
