Hey all, so sorry I am creating another thread but I am on call at the hospital and cannot address this directly so need to give my wife clear instructions. I am slammed (no pun intended) so dont have time to look up all the threads on this so any advice would be amazing. Neightborhood girl...

Concrete is not finished yet as it needs to be tinted and sealed.

Hey all, as you all have saved me many times over the past year during our build I thought I would turn to the TFP fam once again. Our pool is finally largely done. Kingston 38x16' FG pool, autocover, IC40, 4 globrites, 2 sheer descents, an elevated tanning ledge with pentair bubbler...

Forgot pictures.

Hey all, Ive posted some issues I have had in the past during this prolonged build. 38x16 FG Latham pool went in last July, along with a semicircle tanning ledge, and now just finishing due to PB not ordering things in time and then dealing with supply chain issues. Overall very pleased...

Had the same issue, PB planning some fine tuning. Can you explain to me what exactly the "thumper" is and it's purpose?

Did that fix your issue? Just had ours run and having the same issue. Makes it nearly all the way unbroken but definitely breask up towards the end and gets loud. Louder than my (2) 3' Brilliant Wonders 2 LED waterfalls

I just got two of these installed on my tanning ledge. The colors do not seem to be syncing with the Pentair Intellibrite lights or our Pentair bubbler or the laminars. We did use the Smart Sync without luck so far. Thoughts?

Hey everyone, I have learned sooo much from this site and have told my buddy who just put in a pool to join and read up. He is reasonably knowledgeable on the process and equipment since putting in his pool last summer but hasn’t stalked the site like I have. I was trying to guide him on his...

Awesome, guess that’s what I’ll use when the globrites Crud the bed. Thanks for the heads up.

Thank you both for all your information and guidance, truly appreciated. Unfortunately, the globrites were already planned for and the niche's are already in, concrete done, etc. I did not realize the issues with the Globrites until too late. My one major regret so far. I will have to live...

Additionally, I ave asked my PB his thoughts on how to assess the water pipes for leaks given the substantial snow we got last week. the tanning ledge rain water froze and has thawed. Water pipes are 15" or so deep. He disconnected pump and treated pool water prior to disconnecting while...

Hey all, So after months of waiting on supply chain delays for everything, we are getting closer. Still no arrival date for our Intellicenter i8ps IC60 (PB says assume it should be here in 1-2 months). I offered to buy online as they are available but given the warranty issues with buying...

Thank you both for responding. Random question mostly on styling then I guess, do people generally run transformers for every single independent pool life? Basically do people really ever control each in pool light separately or more commonly do people put Paul The in pool lights as one color...

hey everyone, I’m looking for some guidance on some of the wiring for our pool if anyone has experience with us. This is our first pool and my neighbor is a licensed electrician but has never done a pool but is very knowledgeable in most areas. He has some questions about some of the wiring for...

Hey everyone, So our 38x16 fiberglass latham pool is in ground now and pump (SF) is running finally!! I am looking for some advice on heating out here in the Pacific Northwest. PB recommended a Pentair eTI Hybrid which I like the idea and versatility of however it is backordered until at...

No idea how my buddy was able to get his faster. I heard something about them prioritizing new builders to build their business but that’s entirely heresay. I ordered through my builder.

We may as well be dealing with the same PB. Our order was in later than yours but pool was ordered mid April and we were told we were 17th in line for the model we were ordering. Told by PB an early to mid June ship date, pushed to July 5th, then 5 days before pushed again to August 5th. My...

Hey there friends, so first off I assume most new projects are dealing with the same issues as we are but looking for a bit of friendly guidance. Live in PNW. Working with a small PB who does 15 or so pools annually for 16-17 years. 38x16 FG pool ordered in Early/mid April with initial...

Hey Everyone, I apologize for what will come across as a very novice question but I’m looking for some advice. I am building a 38 x 16 fiberglass saltwater pool with a separate tanning ledge that has a bubbler. Planning on a couple waterfalls from the elevated tanning ledge into the pool as well...

Are there other systems that work well for automating chlorine and pH for salt water systems for outdoor residential pools that you recommend?

Yeah just really wanted it for monitoring and managing pH, assumed we would be managing other aspects

We have a salt water system

Hey everyone, new, upcoming pool owned. We live on 5 acres outside of Portland with a small mini-farm (3 fainting goats so far, and 17 chickens). The two toddlers (4&5) may be the wildest of our animals though. PB just submitted permits for a 38x16 Kingston Latham fiberglass pool with a...
